Each week BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald’s Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it’s how a couple retired early for more family time. Hosted by Frances Cook.

Retiring early while your kids are still young enough to actually want to hang out with you? A dream, surely. 
Well this couple managed it, through a combination of property investing, and very frugal living, hitting their goal number in their early 30s. 
They don’t feel as though they missed out on life though, far from it – so here’s what they decided to keep and cut, as they raced to early retirement. 
For the latest podcast I talked to Aleisha Rutherford. 

If you have a question about this podcast, or a question you'd like answered in the next one, come and talk to me about it.
