You can't retire early....

Wait, isn't that what this podcast is about?! 

So, now that we've got your attention, this episode goes into an article we read about why Kevin O'Leary, business man and investor on CNBC's "Shark Tank," says that FIRE doesn't work and you SHOULDN'T do it. But what O'Leary is saying, is exactly why we're doing what we're doing! 

On my list this week... ventricles and pigskins. Also, Vanessa woos Jackson with a few Valentine's Day haikus she wrote for him.

Here's the article we referenced:

Here's the book we mentioned by Tanja Hester, who was mentioned in the article:
