Publisher's Summary

What is financial independence?

Is it having enough money to live a normal life, or is it having so much money that you just don’t care about expenses?

Everyone wants to be independent, but as you've likely experienced, getting there is not as simple as it looks. There are a variety of pitfalls along the way, and a single mistake can set you back by years.

Fortunately, there is a blueprint or method for you to follow. It’s quite simple. It’s called FIRE and virtually guarantees financial independence. By following these rules, you can wave goodbye to that tired old desk job you’ve chained yourself to.

Some of the things you’ll learn about FIRE is:

  • What assets really are - and why you’ve been thinking about them all wrong
  • The crucial difference between debt and leverage
  • Ways to travel for next to nothing - and what you need to do before that
  • Needs and wants - do you know the difference?
  • The ideal way to invest in the stock market
  • Drawdowns - how and when to do them
  • How much do you really need to be financially independent
  • And so much more!

Financial independence is not a pipe dream! It is a question of following a certain path intelligently and with persistence. It might not be easy, but nothing worth doing ever is. So, if you want to learn how to retire early, then you should listen to this audiobook.

Nice summary

Fine intro into the topic and concept. Slightly basic, requires localised knowledge if not in US
