There are multiple ways to financial independence, and we can do it at different speeds. A person who's worried that they're going to die young maybe wants to put a 10% or 15% of what's left over into a financial independence plan.

#418: When Jordan Grumet was a child, his dad died unexpectedly.
That was decades ago.
Jordan is a father today, but he thinks often about the possibility of dying young.
