Here at the FI Garage, we’re all on the path to FI, however, we consider the RE part optional. In this episode, the Mechanic, the Accountant, and the Economist sample a couple of beers and have a discussion about what FI is and what it means to us. It’s a philosophy you can act on now to improve your personal finances and ultimately improve your happiness.

The Why of FI

Freedom from consumerism and the rat race

Time is the most important thing –Your money or your life

This is also a lyric in Last Night by the Traveling Wilburys

Make your money decisions wiser, so your money goes further and makes you happier

FI isn’t just about quitting your job, it’s about designing the life you want.

FI is a mindset, the decision to use math for everything.

FI isn’t about being so frugal you live a deprived life, it’s about making smart decisions with your money.

Choose FI – Pillars of FI 

World’s youngest FIRE.

Beer #2 –  Vancouver Island Hazy IPA
