In today’s episode, Cody and Justin are joined by the insurance guru from Simply Insurance, Sa El.

Sa El got started after a tragedy in the family and is now trying to make sure that never has to happen to anyone else.

In this episode, we cover every type of personal insurance:

 	* Health
 	* Dental
 	* Life
 	* Renters
 	* Car
 	* and more

We also jump into the problems with our health insurance system in the United States and things on the horizon to give us more transparency.

For you money nerds like us, we also discuss parent’s life insurance and how becoming the Owner/Payer/Beneficiary of the policy might be a good financial move.

The podcast has been around for more than 5 years.

That means it's actually old enough to follow our entire journey to financial independence.

Jesse Ray was listening to our episodes back in 2020 sitting in his cubicle.

Less than 2 years later, he retired from the corporate world and we're pumped to bring you his story today.

Jesse has cultivated a co-living brand (Growth House) and real estate portfolio.

He takes homes, adds bedrooms, and rents out the rooms individually.

We've seen this before, but Jesse took it a step further.

He's specifically marketed his homes for entrepreneurs who want to better each other and share common interests.

This means there's a true community and respect for his homes you typically don't see.

After purchasing just two of these homes, he had enough cash flow to cover all his expenses!

He acquired both homes in under 2 years, making it one of the fastest paths to financial independence we've ever seen.

Tune in for the full breakdown and as always, thanks for listening!

From a Cubicle to Financial Freedom at 28 | Jesse Ray

Who doesn't want to vacation more?

Too bad it's so expensive...

But what if it was cheaper than living your normal day-to-day life?

Introducing Geohacking.

Geohacking is when you rent out your primary residence while you travel to a cheaper cost-of-living part of the world.

Justin and his fiancé Leslie just recently spent a week in Puerto Vallarta.

The cost of their oceanside condo, roundtrip flights, and multiple excursions was less than what they earned from renting out their house in Austin, TX for 4 days.

They actually got paid to go on vacation.

In this episode, we unpack this idea of Geohacking and teach you exactly how to get started.

Geohacking – How to Make Money With Your House While Traveling

A financially independent life sounds pretty amazing, but do you want to spend it alone?

Most people want time to spend with their loved ones, and none more than their life partner.

Maybe you already have yours, or maybe you've never even considered how this would change your path.

Either way, today's episode is for you.

This episode was inspired by Justin's recent engagement!

The guys discuss several areas around the topic of financial independence with a life partner including:

 	* Tax benefits
 	* mentality shift
 	* priorities changing
 	* lessons learned
 	* and more

Most of the discussion is high level but we do get in the details a bit more on one subject, and that's the real estate pro designation.

All in all, we think life is better with a partner and their addition is nothing but positive in terms of a path to financial independence.

Thank you all for listening and may this episode help you on your path to a financially independent future.

Relationships and Financial Independence

Our favorite part of the financial independence community is just that, the community.

And no one embodies the principle of community better than Matt and Joel.

They are also the dynamic duo behind HowToMoney and the How to Money Podcast.

We're such huge fans of these guys that we decided to dig into the archives and replay their episode for our listeners who may have missed this one.

This fantastic conversation unwraps their backstory and tons of tangible tips on saving money without sacrifice.

From groceries to real estate, to building a community for their young families, this episode is great for all audiences.

Go give it a listen and let us know what you think!
