It's been a long time since we talked about money on the blog. I thought it'd be interesting to show you where we are at in terms of net worth since we embarked on the path to financial independence, so that you can see what can be done in five years.

There is an old saying that states that it's important to know where you come from in order to know where you go. So I thought it was important to do an introspection session about my education in order to pass on the best to my children.

After more than two years in our new home, we can finally compute what our real rent is as a homeowner in Switzerland. So, is that more advantageous than being a tenant or not?

I went back to the time when we met with Mrs MP, to see how far we've come. First appointments and first gifts, but completely separate financial life. Then settling together, with the first discussions, discords, and compromises concerning money.

As our investment strategy has been in auto-pilot mode for almost two years, I didn't think to update you about my ETF portfolio changes. Thanks to our reader Max for reminding me, it's now fixed!

It's pretty easy to have a budget and to pursue your own dreams like financial independence when you're alone. But when you get (or are) into a relationship, it gets a little more complicated. We've come a long way with Mrs. MP on this topic. Let me tell you how I got her on a common budget and on the dream of financial independence.

For a newspaper interview, I was asked how many Swiss people have the same goal of financial independence as I do. I found myself a little bit stupid as I didn't have any answers... so I thought it would be best to ask you directly.

Since it has been two years that I published my analysis of online brokers for Swiss Mustachians, I thought it was time to provide you with an update so that newcomers to the blog have the latest infos on this matter.

Since I started my journey toward financial independence, I often find myself dreaming about what I would do when I'll no longer need to work for money. Today, I wanted to push the dream further by imagining my ideal schedule when I will be financially independent.

I hate ads that blink all over blogs. But it's one of the easiest ways to monetize a blog, so you can spend more time writing with the money you raise. As a Mustachian who values effort rather than facility, I decided to study a different option: patronage.
