2010: [Part 2] Beating the Market: 4 Ways to Outperform Index Funds by Steven Keys Aug 28, 2022

Show notes

Steven Keys of Trip of a Lifestyle shares 4 ways to outperform index funds. This is part 2 of 2.

Episode 2010: [Part 2] Beating the Market: 4 Ways to Outperform Index Funds by Steven Keys

Since graduating from college in 2012, Steven has developed a healthy obsession with personal finance. Although he has no formal training in the field, he’s taught himself a lot about saving and investing over the years. In addition to the normal stuff, he’s also come up with quite a few unusual ways to make extra money, from credit card hacking, to buying and selling stuff on eBay, to ridiculous ventures like taking advantage of loopholes at casinos.

After finding satisfaction in helping friends and family prepare for retirement, pay off their student loans, and navigate the confusing world of home buying, Steven wanted to share his thoughts on personal finance more publicly. His main motivation for blogging stems from a desire to help more people become financially free and change their lives for the better.

2008: Does Owning a Vacation Home Make Sense? by Darrow Kirkpatrick Aug 26, 2022

Show notes

Darrow Kirkpatrick of Can I Retire Yet shares if owning a vacation home makes sense.

Episode 2008: Does Owning a Vacation Home Make Sense? by Darrow Kirkpatrick

Darrow Kirkpatrick is the founder of CanIRetireYet.com. He began serious investing in his mid-30s and retired at age 50. He's not a dot com millionaire and didn't become financially independent by flipping real estate or trading hot stocks. He did it the traditional way: hard work, frugality, prudent investing, and patience.

When it comes to personal finance, his top priorities are simplicity, reliability, and safety. Now his mission is to help others become financially independent as he did.

More recently, Chris Mamula has been managing the blog and he's a frequent writer on the site. Chris used principles of traditional retirement planning, combined with creative lifestyle design, to retire from a career as a physical therapist at age 41. After poor experiences with the financial industry early in his professional life, he educated himself on investing and tax planning. Now he draws on his experience to write about wealth building, DIY investing, financial planning, early retirement, and lifestyle design.
