The blogger's absolutely killer argument is that no one really gets to raise their kids anymore. What good is a high SOL if you're too busy scrambling up the ladder to get to know your child? (Which is why what kleinbl00 said above is so apt in my opinion. I respect the hell out of him, not for having a ton of money or something inane like that, but for having a flexible job that means he sees his daughter.) But if you retire in your early 30s... suddenly you can actually have a family. That's an unbreakable argument. Don't get me wrong, traveling is what I most enjoy in the world. I'd be better set up financially if I'd never been out of the country. It's all about tradeoffs...
