Pete comes on the show to chat about the exact moment why he decided to leave his CPA job and move to a new town with his wife, why his plans to take on a new job totally failed (resulting in no income source for three years), and what the unsexy things he and his wife did to get back on track.

What You'll Hear in This Episode:

  • The reason Pete decided he wanted to quit his CPA job (hint: it involves passing off his kid to his wife at a gas station)
  • Why Pete’s best laid plans didn’t work out
  • How Pete managed to survive on no official income sources for three years
  • What he did to get some immediate cash flow in his then side hustle
  • What Pete wishes he did differently before he quit his job

Questions to Ponder:

  • Can you find $5 here and there to start a buffer savings account or an emergency fund?
  • If you want to make a transition and it will affect your finances in a big way, what plans can you make for the worst case scenario?
