Don't get sucked into getting a variable rate interest loan or adjustable rate mortgage... you'll sabotage yourself. Stick to fixed interest rates loans and you'll be much safer.

A couple months ago one of the batteries in my hybrid died... and these batteries are not the regular, inexpensive ones. So what did I do? I did what I learned when I worked for the Navy, when I bought new parts for ships. I obtained multiple quotes.
I know everyone knows this is a best practice, but you should actually do it!

Any financial strategy you implement should take your life into account... your whole life.
The FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) movement doesn't do that. The sacrifices you'll make to retire really early will cost you the best years of your life. You'll lose out on your most healthy years, spending time with your family, having fun, enjoying life, and any sort of appreciation of life.
Skip the FIRE goal and enjoy life.
