FU Money Part 1 | JL Collins | 023

Catching Up to FI

THE JL Collins is the author of THE Simple Path to Wealth and aptly named the "Godfather of FI".  For over 600,000 readers, his first book has become a sort of "Bible of FI".  He is a humble spokesperson for those on their own personal journey to financial independence.  In Part 1 of our conversation, we talk with him about his own journey and his thoughts on real estate and index fund investing.  We start the show with R-Rated audio from the popular JL Collins parody of a John Goodman clip from the movie "The Gambler", "The Position of F**k You".
