We’re all looking for ways to save a little money. Not only are expenses going up, but we’re rolling into the holiday season.

On her first day as CEO of PepsiCo, Indra Nooyi fired her general counsel. Then rehired him before dinner. It wasn’t a stunt. It was a signal. She ran a $200 billion empire the same way she ran her life: with surgical precision, uncompromising standards, and an allergy to corporate theater. But here’s what separates this conversation from every other CEO interview: she tells you what her massive ambition cost her and her family. What it means to carry […]

Dear Reader, as you’ll shortly discover, the subject of this post is pretty simple and straightforward. But, hoo boy have I had a devil of a time tackling it! I meant to publish last week, but the trouble I was having and my usual procrastination led me to hold off and work on the post some more.  Then I meant to post the whole shebang today. But still I was having some trouble adequately expressing […]

Have you ever noticed the same problem keeps showing up, no matter what you try? It could be anything, struggling to save money and invest money, getting paying clients in your business, or challenges in your career. Unfortunately, what we think is the problem isn’t really the problem. When we don’t get to the root of an issue, the cycle continues to repeat itself. That’s why it’s so important to understand what’s really causing it […]

For 2024 I published my side hustle income report each month to maintain accountability. This year, my main goal is to be profitable. To maintain transparency and accountability, I’ll be reporting both on my income and my expenses this year. I haven’t been profitable for a while now. My day job has been subsidizing my side hustles, which kind of play out as a time-consuming hobby. My goal this year is to turn this around. […]

If you’ve been following me regularly, you’ll know that occasionally I get a little wound up about a particular topic. A reader mentioned that they loved my rants, and asked if I was going to keep sharing them now that I didn’t have that daily article to put out. So, here goes.

Money Versus Time: Change Is Hard The FI crowd has a hard time giving up old habits. Optimizing for hardcore saving and investing will get you to the Promised Land of FI. But it will hold you back once you’ve arrived. Two examples: 1. Tool Time I have infinite tools from all of my remodeling […] The post The Question No One Asks appeared first on 1500 Days to Freedom.

Do you like living by a budget? Some people associate budgeting with being poor or feeling restricted, but that’s far from the way I see it. Living by a budget is for everyone, no matter your means.

A budget gives you the freedom to spend how you want because you are the one who […]

Collaborative Fund recently launched AIR, a new kind of accelerator for design-led AI products. It draws inspiration from the institutions that reshaped creative possibility in their time, places that brought together unlikely collaborators at key moments of technological and cultural inflection. As we recruit for the first cohort, we’re talking to people who had a hand in creating those lighting rod moments. A few weeks ago we asked Nicholas Negroponte, founder of the MIT Media […]

When most people think about financial planning, they think about implementation tactics. Should I be in a Roth or a traditional IRA? Should I use a bond ladder or stick with a total return portfolio? How should I time Social Security? These are good questions, but they’re not the first questions you should be asking. You can’t determine which strategy or tool might be appropriate based on a list of your assets without additional context.   […]

If you’re still managing your money like it’s 1999, you’re getting left behind. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a lot more than some buzzword, AI is here, and it’s here to stay while it continually keeps evolving. AI is also already deep in your wallet, your credit score, and believe it or not even insurance premiums. From budgeting apps that know how you are spending better than you do, to those prick scammers that are cloning […]
