Living the FI dream abroad with Jeremy from @Go Curry Cracker


https://youtu.be/3NQ0agjuxXY? sub_confirmation 1

________Here are the Show Notes________ Went on normal path. Got a job after college, house, and fixated on paying off student loans. Aggressively paid down student loans, but motivated by people who retired early. 5 years ago, both quit their jobs, traveling, raising family, and living their dream. Ruthlessly slashed expenses and saved 70-80% after-tax income. Max contributed to 401K, IRA, HSA, and after-tax accounts. Short-term joy = trading years of financial-free opportunity. Actively chose lifestyle. Traveled internationally by arbitraging where they lived with low living expenses. Didn't listen to mainstream advice of owning home. Choosing a renters lifestyle to not get ""stuck."" Both have blogs and garnered new friendships; not the ""Seattle Chill."" Finances on auto-pilot. Can work on growing family in Taipei and doing creative things they did during childhood. Two types of things preventing people from being financially-free: Afraid to take leap to be financial-free and long-term goals to strive towards. People don't change minds because you provided info to them; they change when they're ready. Visit www.gocurrycracker.com and social media accounts on FB, Instagram.
