When we did our housing survey a few months back, I was surprised to learn just how many paid subscribers to the newsletter—

  • are homeowners.

  • own rental properties.

  • have ample, and in some cases, millions in cash saved.

  • are in or on the road to a traditional retirement.

  • maintain relatively high costs of living.

This encouraged me, in part because it shows that—for one reason or another—the newsletter’s content resonates with people other than people who are like me. While I live comfortably and feel like I can do all I want to do now and going forward—within reason—I don’t check any of the above boxes. And—based on interacting with newsletter subscribers—I know that much of our subscriber base is navigating a path similar to mine.

I tend not to do series in this newsletter. I prefer to let what we discuss develop organically. If you’re a paid subscriber, consider this next link a review or way to catch up. If you’re a free subscriber, consider it additional incentive to upgrade. For both, it shows how one post on housing led to a robust discussion that we cap—for now—today with a pretty much positive spin.
