Summary
Last year, I published an interview with one of my favorite financial writers, Morgan Housel.
You may remember that the interview was recorded as part of a Bogleheads meeting and the interview was actually conducted by my buddy, Gouri.
Well, Gouri recently invited me to join the Bogleheads to talk about life after FIRE and today’s podcast episode is a recording of that discussion!
Big thanks to Gouri and the Bogleheads for making this happen and hope you enjoy it!
Highlights
- How your views on spending change after you retire
- Why you should treat FI as a spectrum rather than a finish line
- How to plan for all aspects of post-FI life
- The unexpected benefits and challenges of early retirement

| 0:00.0 | Hey, what's up everybody? Welcome to the Financial Independence Podcast. The podcast that |
| 0:09.7 | gets inside the brains of some of the best and brightest and personal finance to find |
| 0:12.8 | out how they achieved financial independence. |
| 0:15.4 | You may remember last year, around this time, I had an episode with Morgan Housel, and |
| 0:20.2 | Morgan's one of my favorite financial writers, and it was a great episode, and you may remember |
| 0:25.4 | that I actually didn't do the interview. It was my buddy Gory, who interviewed Morgan |
| 0:29.9 | as part of a BogoHeads meeting, and Gory's big in the BogoHeads, and he actually invited |
| 0:36.2 | me to join that same sort of discussion for the BogoHeads group that he was running. So |
| 0:41.1 | that's what today's episode is. |
| 0:42.7 | And if you don't know who the BogoHeads are, they're a group that are dedicated to Jack |
| 0:46.8 | Bogo, the founder of Vanguard. So all the index fund investing and everything that's talked |
| 0:52.0 | about on the mad scientist, that's a group that really goes in depth in that philosophy |
| 0:57.6 | of investing. So they have a fantastic and very active forum. They have these local meetups |
| 1:03.4 | that Gory's a part of, and it's a really great organization all around. So if you're interested, |
| 1:09.5 | definitely head over to BogoHeads.org to check it out, and obviously I'll put links to |
| 1:14.3 | that in the show notes. So I sat down with Gory, and a bunch of other BogoHeads on a Zoom |
| 1:20.2 | call, and we had a great chat for a couple of hours, and what you're going to hear today |
| 1:24.6 | is the interview portion of that, and the interview is fantastic because as always, Gory |
| 1:29.9 | did a ton of research beforehand and asked great questions. So without further ado, this |
| 1:35.3 | is my chat with Gory for the BogoHeads. |
| 1:39.6 | We'll begin with something that you often end with on your podcast, which is you ask |
| 1:44.7 | your guests who are leaders in the FI space or off in the self-improvement space. You |
