Congrats Nords! I was quoted there a few times myself, back in the 80's.

Nords got the last word in:

"It's all a lifestyle choice," he says. "If you live a frugal life, it's easier to retire early."

Congrats!

Yep, seems they left the punch line for last. Would have been nice to also work that message into a teaser at the beginning of the article.

Note that they also quoted Darrow Kirkpatrick of "Can I Retire Yet?", another excellent blog.

Darrow and I know each other from blogging and FinCons. He connected with Liz first and then referred her to me.

If anyone has a chance to do an interview with her, she's a total professional. She asks good questions, actually listens to the answers, and takes good notes. I also appreciate a journalist who makes the time to do a basic fact check.
