FISE: Financially Independent Save the Earth. Dr. Plastic Picker
FISC: Financially Independent Serve the Country. Brother-in-law Navy Academy Graduate actively serving his country.
FIBS: Financially Independent Building Stuff. Older brother now doing a lot of carpentry.
FICL: Financially Independent Crafting Love. Younger Ivy-League trained younger sister crafting love in all her spare time.
FILP: Financially Independent Loves his Parents. Mr. Plastic Picker keeps on working as a financial cushion in case his parents need anything.
I was approached by part of a well know FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) blog team about including Dr. Plastic Picker into a multi-blog user app. It’s one of the well known FIRE bloggers I follow occassionally who is like the Oprah of Personal Finance Bloggers https://drplasticpicker.com/blogroll/. That blog has a devout readership of millions of people, but they are kind of scary and judgy. But in all seriousness, I appreciate the personality behind the blog and the environmentalism that informs his writing. I believe that blog is a force of good in the world. I give credit where credit is due, and for me that blog was one of several that I have admired. I was approached by individuals affiliated with his blog that are trying to spread exposure to his blog through an app, and of course they will make some sort of money off it either through ads or something.
