In this final episode of Season 1, I reflect on how FI Study Room started—born out of a personal need to hear real conversations about financial independence from the perspective of a W2 employee.

Over 15 weeks, we’ve talked about books like The Simple Path to Wealth and The Millionaire Next Door, covered practical strategies like tax-advantaged accounts and index investing, and explored my personal experiences with real estate—from value-add Bay Area projects to out-of-state rentals in Memphis.

I also share behind-the-scenes numbers from the podcast (👀 496 plays and counting!), how I stayed consistent week after week, and why it’s time to pause and reflect before Season 2.

Whether you’ve listened to one episode or all 15—thank you. Let’s keep learning and building freedom, one step at a time. 🙌
