Doug chats with Pete Adeney (Mr. Money Mustache) about a variety of topics centered around retirement, fitness, happiness, and sustainable living.  Pete also answers questions from the Facebook mailbag. Sam – What advice would you give to a young adult today that wants to retire early? Niel – Congratulations on becoming an empty nester. What are you most looking forward to in this new phase of life? Khang – What is something new you’ve tried recently that you would recommend to others? Rich – What is your sleep routine and are you a good sleeper? Katie – You mentioned that you consulted with someone who wanted you to review their retirement plan. So have you done more of these consultations and what have you learned from the experience? Andrea – You mentioned you want people to build new towns like Longmont. Do you have any thoughts on where the next Longmont might be given how expensive it’s become? Chris – What are your thoughts on the Culdesac model? And have you brought any ideas back to Longmont from your time down there? Kyle – What are your thoughts about the connection between the FIRE movement and environmentalism? Have you transitioned to socially responsible investing now that there are some low fee index funds for that?  Rakesh – How do you maintain your composure when it seems like everything around you is falling apart?
