I am a multi-year listener to this podcast but just starting tuning in through KZread the past few weeks. This format is incredible. You guys are doing a great job. Just so you are aware, I know dozens of people in my immediate circle that listen weekly. You (Ben and Cameron) are making an immense, positive impact that radiates farther than you realize. We love you guys. Great work and take care. -Ben K from Calgary.

Thanks for sharing that Ben. It means a lot to the whole RR team.

This is one of the best episodes and full of insight and learnings. Everyone should listen. Thanks for that Cameron and Benjamin

Wow this Podcast is total underrated. Is amazing deep

If you are short on time, actionable advice is summarized @54:10.

I didn’t start until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, and got 5 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made. Great video! Thanks for sharing!

I came for the investing advice but instead got life advice.

When I have some money I buy ETFs because they make me happy.

My most memorable vacations were frugal adventures. A canoe trip through Quetico provincial park was probably my favorite. The hard part is vacationing in the winter if you’re from Canada or northern US. You have to enjoy Nordic skiing!

This episode was absolutely incredible! My brother recommended your podcast and I'm pretty behind on the investment knowledge and trying to catch up, in the meantime this was an absolute pleasure to listen to. Thank you 🙌

Like and then watch.

Interesting talking about control and being happy when in control. Then Ben said he does not budget. I love budgeting because it gives me control and makes me happy.

Damn, I really needed this episode right now. Thanks for the great work, as usual, guys. 🤘🏻

Few people want to eliminate work. Most of them want to eliminate the need to work.

Great content as always. Especially liked the part where you said that it makes more sense to get most happiness out of the journey towards the goal.

Excellent podcast, keep up the solid work.

Ben is so socially awkward and I love it 😂

Is it possible to show texts you read out loud on screen? Great episode as always!

Bring Haidt to the show!!!

You should start a separate channel with your bot journey :)

Sounds like FIRE (version of it that focuses on stoping to work anyway) is a bit flawed

Yeah. My friend followed the FIRE method for about 7 years. His relationship became very toxic. At the end of things he lost a lot of money when he had to split his house with his partner. We shouldn't aim to stop working, we should aim to work on something that matters, with good conditions, under our control.

I have a conflict with that advise of spending in other people. I constantly give money to other people(mainly my parents and charity) but I don't feel good when I do that, in fact, I feel like if I was losing that money, so it hurts. I do it not because I feel happy to do it, but because my personal beliefs. One could argue that acting according to my personal beliefs makes me feel more realized and acting against them would cause cognitive dissonanse. However, I'm still wondering if I could get more happiness from that with minimal changes.

I think it's not just money that rich people crave to make them happy, it's power, and typically money = power.

Great video guys. Just wondering how people can get exposure to CMA & RMW factors through ETF’s?

VIG and VDC are relatively unreliable ways to get exposure. VIG is probably the best way we have to get small exposure to CMA and RMW. AVUV has good RMW. So perhaps AVUV and VDC

should do an episode on the book "top ten global trends every smart person should know"

@57:00

You definitely need to rename this podcast "The Rational Rider" as in Haidt's analogy.

BEN: I CAN TELL YOU THAT PEOPLE IN CANADA ARE HAPPIER THAN THOSE IN THE USA. Levels of stress seem higher here., overall well-being higher there. Might this be due to universal healthcare there ?

Rare episode that I was able to watch at 1.5x speed
