Re: JL's journal
Nice work on net worth. Exciting!
My NZ version of super only allows withdrawal for hardship. But I just leave it there as a safety net when I really need it as it is a tiny fuck all fraction of my net worth. Or I can use it for first home purchase or if I move overseas for a year or more. No tax though.
I read that the secret of AirBNB is to start cheapest in the market as you attract new people and then gradually increase the price as you get more great comments The more great comments you have the more you can charge until you are top of the market

Caloriewise it depends a lot on how fast you're going when it comes to cycling. Still better than driving. If you're going some 15mph and fuelling yourself with olive oil (yuck!), you should be getting around 600ish MPG.

Re: JL's journal
Congrats your net worth has been growing more quickly each year.
I thought about doing the AirBNB thing but worked out I couldn't make much more off it either at the moment than with a flatmate.
Looks like you have some exciting times ahead!

Re: JL's journal
You so have your recipe for Air BNB sorted out! Looks good.
Exciting about resigning. Have you done it now? What will the next steps be for you? Can I ask what you have gotten your NW to now?

Re: JL's journal
Wow your are truly in an awesome spot at the moment. I am a bit behind you. Might be where you are in about a year.
I am interested in watching how Airbnb has gone for you. I was going to do it myself but became demotivated with it where I am. I am not sure the arbitrage is as good in the super expensive city I am in. So I have just a roommate. But I might try airbnb next time.
Is your landlord ok with you airbnbing the whole place while you are travelling ?
