Mr. Bogle passes
Jack Bogle died last week on January 16th. It was a shock to me. It shouldn’t have been, I suppose. He was 89 after all. Not to mention he had his first heart attack at age 31 and a heart transplant in 1996. But still, somehow we don’t expect greatness to pass before our very… [Continue Reading]

Chautauqua 2018 Greece: A week for the gods!
“No one in my day-to-day life understands this FI path. At Chautauqua, everybody gets it. I have found my tribe.” Way back in 2012 I headed to Ecuador to create the very first Chautauqua held in the fall of 2013.

On Twitter, gone for Chautauqua and dark on comments till November
Yeah. I’m amazed, too… JL Collins NH on Twitter Newbie that I am, I am not entirely sure how I’ll be using it.
