[quote=Anonymous]Dude is definitely earning hundreds of thousands from his blog. I love the concept of FIRE, but the extremes of MMM are not for me. And here's my question - if he is earning a lot but living off only 37K a year (which is more than funded by investments he had prior to early retirement), what's the plan for the big pile of cash he's building? I don't see him wanting to set his kids up to be rich/living the high life. At some point, savings can turn into being a money hoarder and a miser. You can't take it with you, so there is something to be said for balance. It's like he keeps his spending low just as a personal challenge rather than really making the most of enjoying life within their means. [/quote]
