Mr. Money Mustache talks about the coffee machine that can pay for a college education. Episode 1609: The Coffee Machine That Can Pay for a University Education by Mr. Money Mustache Mr. Money Mustache is a thirty-something retiree who now writes about how we can all live a frugal, yet awesome, life of leisure. He and his wife studied engineering and computer science in Canada, then worked in standard tech-industry cubicle jobs in various locations throughout the late ’90s and early 2000s. Then they retired from real work way back in 2005 in order to start a family. This was achieved not through luck or amazing skill, but simply by living a lifestyle about 50% less expensive than most of their peers and investing the surplus in very boring conservative Vanguard index funds and a rental house or two.

Rachel Jones of Nourishing Minimalism talks about being a minimalist with a family Episode 1566: Practical Minimalism: Being a Minimalist with a Family by Rachel Jones Rachel started her journey to minimalism in 2008, struggling with depression and horribly embarrassed by the messy state of her home.

But it is a tool to use to help you focus on what's important. Her mission is to help others turn their home into their own personal oasis. Having found an immense amount of freedom with minimalism, it's her goal to share the methods of simplifying and the tools that she had to rely on (and still does!) to maintain a home that is easy to take care of and a joyful space to live.
