How Our Government Jobs Helped Us Reach FI | Our Rich Journey


Listen Later

Do you dream of retiring before your 40s?

Amon and Christina retired at age 39 and moved to Portugal with their two daughters. Thanks to their government jobs, they were able to achieve a very high savings rate of 70% and build a nest egg of 25 times their annual expenses in just 8 years. They've now been retired for 3 months and enjoy their time relaxing and spending more time with their girls.

You'll love that story.
