557: 10 Ways to Redefine Your Purchase Process by Courtney Carver of Be More With Less Apr 17, 2018

Show notes

Courtney Carver of Be More With Less shares 10 ways to redefine your purchase process.

Episode 557: 10 Ways to Redefine Your Purchase Process by Courtney Carver of Be More With Less (Simple Living & Minimalism).

Courtney Carver was stopped in her tracks with a scary MS diagnosis after decades of debt, discontent, and trying to do it all. She had to slow down, prioritize her health, and figure out what was really important in her life. She discovered what mattered most by getting rid of everything that didn’t matter at all. In the end it all came down to love and health.

She went from a busy, overwhelmed advertising director to spending 2-3 hours every morning taking care of herself, loving her work, and being present and engaged with the people she loves. Her family changed, too. They moved from wanting bigger closets, nicer furniture, and more stuff to downsizing into a 750 sq. ft apartment with no storage.

Courtney has written books, courses, and hundreds of articles to help you simplify your life and work so you can focus on what really matters.

550: Reader Case Study: Student Loans or Saving for a Home by Mr. Money Mustache Apr 06, 2018

Show notes

Mr. Money Mustache takes on a reader's question about renting vs. buying and paying off student loans.

Episode 550: Reader Case Study: Student Loans or Saving for a Home by Mr. Money Mustache (Buy a House or Pay Off Debt).

Mr. Money Mustache is a thirty-something retiree who now writes about how we can all live a frugal, yet awesome, life of leisure.

He and his wife studied engineering and computer science in Canada, then worked in standard tech-industry cubicle jobs in various locations throughout the late ’90s and early 2000s.

Then they retired from real work way back in 2005 in order to start a family. This was achieved not through luck or amazing skill, but simply by living a lifestyle about 50% less expensive than most of their peers and investing the surplus in very boring conservative Vanguard index funds and a rental house or two.
