[quote=harvey]It’s all in his calculus. Having children has certain benefits, like … well if you don’t understand the benefits then there is no point in trying to explain them.

But having one child is optimal. You get the benefits without any additional costs. He’s got it all figured out, optimally.[/quote]

3 kids is kinda redundamt. now that i know them, of course, i cant fathom not having them. but when i didnt know them i xould have not had them and be happy.

certainly there should be a one dog per family rule

[quote=harvey]Well I did notice that he constantly emphasizes how happy he is.

Reminds me of Trump emphasizing how honest he is.

But I do think MMM is happy. Buddhist monks who live in absolute poverty are apparently happy also.

I won’t forget the dog subject. My dog brings me joy.[/quote]

constant optimization probably doesnt bring happiness. quite the opposite.

dudeism is the only mindset that can bring ha]piness.

i despise dogs.

theres nothing cool about a dog. slathering sycophantic beasts.
my cat teaches me how to be.

but yeah, the blog is really more about toughening up and not being a “complainypants”…enjoying life more by riding your bike and getting off the hedonic treadmill. hes super pro bike. basically the answer to all your oroblrms is,ride your bike. which i kinda,side with.

I’m generally pragmatic with personal finance, but he takes it to a level that’s a little too cold and calculating.

Stuff like “you only need one kid” and “you don’t need a dog.” Yes he actually did the math, and a dog in your life means that you’ll have to work X number of years longer before retirement…

I keep a budget but don’t think it’s healthy to be calculating the lifetime cost of a family member.[/quote]

If dogs are too expensive, how does he justify having a kid?[/quote]

priorities.
also i think he spends less on food for him and his b kid than a lit of southern californians spend on their dogs

[scaredyclassic]

[quote=harvey][quote=scaredyclassic]he mentions somewhere, minimal activities and commitments of any type. [/quote]

“The dog population experienced relative stability from 1987 to 1996, before seeing a yearly increase of 3-4% since that time.[48] In 2000, there were 68 million dogs in the country, and by 2010 that estimate had grown to 75 million, with about 40% of American households owning a dog.[49][50]

In 2012, there were 83.3 million dogs and about 47% of households had a dog.[51] 70% of the owners had a dog, 20% of the owners had two dogs, and 10% of the owners had three or more dogs.[51]”

i think too many people have too many damn dogs. they are too expensive.

kids too, probably.

[scaredyclassic]

over the weekend i became interested in a new religion, dudeism, based on the movie THE BIG LEBOWSKI. it might be sort of not totally compatible with mr MM. i think i want to just be a dudeist.

i can get ordained over the internet and maybe prosyletize a little later…

[quote=ucodegen]You can also get an electric assisted bike, or mod a bike to be electric assisted. A person near where I live runs a bike with two electric wheel hubs (front and back). The thing is virtually a motorcycle. He has no problems with the hills.

Or you can run a electric motorcycle. – though the only problem I have seen there is that most of the electric motorcycles cost the same as a small car.

i have a lot of bikes but i got this new blue one from the goodwill that is very shiny and cool. for my oldest kid. who got a job then took my car. so i took his bike. i guess he can have it back whenever. 60.00. rides nicer than other bikes, maybe cause its not mine? i love the blueness of it. old mid90s mt. bike, all rigid. color matters IMO.

mrmoney mustache has changed my outlook. im going to be less of a pussy.
