Summary
On episode 425 of the podcast I interviewed Mr. Money Mustache. That episode was not intended to be an introduction to his teaching or his philosophy; rather, it was a human interest discussion with the man himself.
Today, I introduce you to the philosophy and teaching: the message.
What is mustachianism? What is the plan for financial independence espoused by Mr. Money Mustache?
Enjoy!
