Bill & Becky chat with THE JL Collins, author of THE Simple Path to Wealth and aptly named the "Godfather of FI".  For over 600,000 readers, his first book has become a sort of "Bible of FI".  He is a humble spokesperson for those on their own personal journey to financial independence.  In Part 1 of our conversation, we talk with him about his own journey and his thoughts on real estate and index fund investing.  We start the show with R-Rated audio from the popular JL Collins parody of a John Goodman clip from the movie "The Gambler", "The Position of Fuck You".
