Get Rich Slow Club 120. FIRE chats: lessons on the journey to retiring early
In this episode of the Get Rich Slow Club, Tash and Ana chat with Keith and David from the US about their unique journeys toward Financial Independence and Early Retirement (FIRE). David is living a semi-retired lifestyle, while Keith has fully retired early. They share how small, incremental improvements can lead to significant progress over time, emphasizing the importance of focusing on consistent growth rather than perfection.
They also discuss the power of community in the FIRE journey. Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who share similar goals can provide motivation, support, and a sense of belonging. Keith and David highlight how finding the right people on the same path can make the process more enjoyable and sustainable.
Finally, the conversation dives into the importance of defining your values and passions early on. Keith and David stress that understanding what brings you joy and purpose now is essential to creating a fulfilling life after early retirement. Their experiences offer valuable insights for anyone looking to achieve financial independence and live a life aligned with their priorities.
