The Best Advice from JL Collins


To celebrate the release of JL Collins’ new book, Pathfinders, I collected all the best advice from his Financial Independence Podcast interviews!

JL has been on the show three times:

  • First, back in 2012 (he was my second guest ever!)
  • Second, when his hit book, The Simple Path to Wealth, was released
  • Third, during the depths of the Coronavirus crash

That last interview may be my proudest moment as the Mad Fientist (I explain why during the show).

Hope you enjoy this jam-packed episode!
