Living in Longmont: Community & Retirement Insights | MHFI 237

Doug and Dusti answer questions from the Facebook mailbag.

• Chris
  • For Doug: I know this is a stereotypical interview question, but where do you see yourself in 5 years? With Elizabeth’s recent retirement and your continued involvement with the FI community, how do you see your life changing (or perhaps not) in the next handful of years?
  • For Dusti: How is retirement going? Any updates or new observations since you were last on the podcast?
• Niel – I would be interested to hear more about your hobbies, even if you aren’t actively pursuing them at the moment. Homebrewing, cooking, BBQ, guitar, etc. Bonus points if you can relate it to FIRE but not necessary.
• Erin – Does living in Longmont make it easier to retire and have a social group where people understand? Are you also experiencing people around you busier due to the cost of living?
