Here's our latest interview with a side hustler! As you know, I love creating a side hustle as part of a fast-track path to financial independence because it can make a huge difference (see this financial calculator), enough to actually get you to FI in 10 years.

My Experience at a Direct Mail Retirement Seminar

They look like the sleaziest things you can imagine (if you read between the lines) -- post cards offering a free meal at a local restaurant in exchange for hearing a presentation about a given retirement topic.

I like the process of setting goals and then taking steps to achieve them (something I've used with great success throughout my life). The start of a new year is perfect for this sort of activity.
