Welcome to EverydayFI, the podcast that explores the lives and stories of everyday people in the financial independence community. We're back with part 2 of Bill's story we embarked on last week. In today's episode we get into Bill's money origin story, which leads us to talking about financial literacy in general — the good, the bad, and what we can do at home about it. We also dive into Bill's journey to finding the FI community and his "why of FI" as someone who is a late comer to the movement. Towards the end of the episode Bill shares his current challenges and wins in life, plus we wax poetic about the parallels between health and personal finances.
