Doug and Carl interview friend, fellow Longmonster, and FIRE legend Mr. Money Mustache (aka Pete Adeney). When Tim Ferriss interviewed Pete, they ended by talking about Pete’s desire to own a local community gathering space. This is the jumping off point for the Mile High FI conversation. But, they go a lot deeper too. No talk about index funds or the 4% Rule. That stuff has been covered. Instead, this conversation is about happiness, journeys, and meaning. Quick note: Do you enjoy Mile High FI? Do you hate it? Either way, supporting the show is a great idea! You will feel better about yourself. Also, Doug and Carl will be thankful to you forever. Maybe even longer. MMM HQ Coworking

• How Pete and Carl came to own a coworking space
• What happens at HQ
• Is HQ a coworking space or social club?

Happiness

• The real goal of Mr. Money Mustache (it’s not moneymap)
• What is happiness?
• The factors that lead to happiness
• Journey versus goals
