Hey everyone, you know what that big fat yellow and black logo means: it’s time to spread the link love!
Every month, I’ll share my favorite reads from around the web. These articles will be perfect for fellow millennials seeking financial independence. Most will revolve around investing, saving money, and early retirement, but like always, I reserve the right to occasionally throw in a completely random but entertaining read.
How this guy saved $1.25 million in 5 years
Grant over at MillennialMoney.com breaks down how long it will take you to save $1 million, then shows exactly how he one upped everyone by saving $1.25 million in 5 years. Take that, MyMoneyWizard! Oh wait…
7 steps to early retirement for a 20 year old
This blogger wrote a great letter to his 20 year old nephew, with 7 pieces of advice for easily reaching early retirement. With any luck, I’ll be writing one of these letters soon, and even better, I could sign the piece “Your Crazy Uncle” right above the super official title, “Early Retiree.”
What’s ya bitcoin strategy?
There’s a lot of talk about Bitcoins lately, but not a whole lot of talk about bitcoins using sound economics and basic reasoning. Here’s a great piece from Paul at Asset-Based Life sharing his strategy for the rise of the e-dollar.
Speaking of those cryptocurrencies…
If we needed any more proof that this is all getting a little out of hand, Wu Tang rapper “Ghostface Killah” just launched his own cryptocurrency. And no, this is not an article from The Onion.
Hey, at least this sounds more promising than the cryptocurrency backed by Paris Hilton.
What this blogger did in response to the Equifax breach
We’re all probably sick of hearing it, but that doesn’t mean its going away. After two articles of my own this month, here’s another from ESI Money, where he explains all the steps he took following the Equifax hack.
Wrapping It Up
This month’s Link-O-Rama is a little shorter than usual, but hey… 1) It’s Halloween! ? and 2) I just got back from the wild four day blogging conference that is FinCon.
I know, I couldn’t believe there were blogging conferences either. Brace yourself to read all about it soon!
See you in a few days for the spooky October net worth update!
Andy Hill says
Thanks for featuring my letter to my nephew! I know he got the gift cards but I hope he got the advice too. Have a good one!
The Money Wizard says
It was a great post! Thanks for putting it out there.
Paul says
Many thanks MW! I know I risk the ire of the Bitcoin mafia, but I just don’t get it.
I do try to keep an open mind, though. Perhaps Ghostface Killah’s endeavor is exactly the entry to cryptocurrencies I’ve been waiting for!
The Money Wizard says
Personally, I’m holding out for Snoop Dogg’s Shizzle Bucks.
Am I joking or not? We just can’t tell anymore.
