Journey To Launch

Episode 334: From Poverty to Millionaire, How Pursuing Financial Independence Gives You Options & Living Authentically With Delyanne Barros


Listen Later

Delaynne Barros, award-winning Latina money expert and former employment attorney, joins the Journey to Launch podcast to discuss her path from undocumented immigrant to seven-figure business owner. 

After learning about the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement, Delyanne decided to go “all in,” by paying off $150,000 in student loan debt and throwing money into the stock market. 

We chat about frugality out of necessity and intentionality, avoiding lifestyle creep, the “golden handcuffs” of high salary careers, escaping poverty, and more.

In this episode you’ll learn more about:

  • What made Delyanne want to become a lawyer and how she was able to retire from law at age 39
  • The important lesson behind Delyanne’s experience pouring money into the stock market during COVID-19
  • Passive income vs. front-loading work as an entrepreneur
  • The cost of living in Portugal, when Delyanne plans to retire her mom, deciding to be child-free by choice, and more
