My Personal F.I.R.E. Story

12/03/201803/19/2019 / othalafehu / 11 Comments

I have touched upon this background story more than once. It was not until FinCon that I realized how central it was to my personal FIRE journey. Several times when I was trying to boil down my history with FIRE I kept coming up with the same short story. My in-laws were wonderful human beings. … Continue reading My Personal F.I.R.E. Story

So I was raised in a middle class white flight suburban dreamscape. It was a Rust Belt city slowing choking to death on its own fumes in the midst of Reagan's 'New Day' in America and life was pretty good. I was outside from dawn till dusk doing God knows what because bad things didn't … Continue reading Part 1; By Long and Winding Path

Having a child means when you take a hit like we did, you just have to keep plugging along. There is no real time to wallow in the mire. My new job, in Prosecution this time, was rewarding but stressful. The wife worked for the same employer, she had just transferred locations. This time around … Continue reading Part 3; AutoPilot

Part 4; Bourgeoisie Creep

01/21/201703/22/2019 / othalafehu / 8 Comments

The big problem with accumulating more and more wealth is what I like to call Bourgeoisie Creep. Much like an ever present weed it must be hacked back down to its roots by the Vigilance of Frugalitas. It is so easy to get used to spending money. Just remember that given enough focus, one can overcome … Continue reading Part 4; Bourgeoisie Creep

WHY OTHALAFEHU?

The RUNES are the ancient writing system of the Germanic peoples handed down to man from the pagan god Odin.

Othala is the rune for ancestral home, the hearth, and sacred enclosure. Fehu represents our power and possessions gained by own hand, the measure of our earned wealth.

And so my Personal Finance / Net Worth / Dividend Portfolio / Secret Journal was born.
