I don't think we all need to go the FI way and live in a POS our whole life, eating beans and rice and clipping coupons. 

Money Mustache (blog) - required reading for anyone who is interested in FI/RE, frugality, or relentless self-improvement.- Your Money or Your Life - was and is the basis for many of the ideas that turned into the FI/RE movement.
