Optimal Finance Daily - Financial Independence and Money Advice

Amanda Brownlow of Hello Brownlow talks about the goal of frugal living

Episode 2333: The Goal of Frugal Living - It’s More Than Saving Money by Amanda Brownlow of Hello Brownlow

Amanda is passionate about doing things herself. She loves to see how far she can stretch a dollar, minimize her home, and make her budget (and her life) more efficient. 

She only writes about budgeting and minimizing tricks that she has tried so that she knows that they work. She is on her journey to financial independence with her Little Guy in tow, and while maintaining a budget that allows her to save almost HALF of her income, she’s still able to go on adventures around the country. 

When she’s not running after her one-year-old, she’s writing about and thinking about new ways to make her life more efficient and bring simplicity to everything she does.

Darrow Kirkpatrick of Can I Retire Yet talks about protecting your assets in a digital world. This is part 2 of 2.

Episode 2327: [Part 2] Protecting Your Assets in a Digital World by Darrow Kirkpatrick

Darrow Kirkpatrick is the founder of CanIRetireYet.com. He began serious investing in his mid-30s and retired at age 50. He's not a dot com millionaire and didn't become financially independent by flipping real estate or trading hot stocks. He did it the traditional way: hard work, frugality, prudent investing, and patience.

When it comes to personal finance, his top priorities are simplicity, reliability, and safety. Now his mission is to help others become financially independent as he did.

More recently, Chris Mamula has been managing the blog and he's a frequent writer on the site. Chris used principles of traditional retirement planning, combined with creative lifestyle design, to retire from a career as a physical therapist at age 41. After poor experiences with the financial industry early in his professional life, he educated himself on investing and tax planning. Now he draws on his experience to write about wealth building, DIY investing, financial planning, early retirement, and lifestyle design.
