Have you heard of the FIRE movement before? Well, it's exploding in popularity all over the world, and the Aussie Firebug is on a mission here in Australia. The Aussie Firebug is all about achieving FIRE. This "FIRE" is actually an acronym for financial independence, retire early. At a time when people are people are holding off their retirement in to their late 60s or 70s and working much longer than they would have liked to, there's a growing community of people that are doing the opposite. They're aiming to retire in the 40s, maybe even their 30s. And it's no pipedream... they're on a mission to make it happen, and putting things in place to make it a reality. This is no small group of people doing this either. This is growing in popularity and getting bigger and bigger each year. The philosophy is all about how much money you save, not how much money you make, so don't think it's only wealthy people that can have such a goal if life to retire in their 30s. In this episode I speak with the Aussie Firebug about what he is doing to become financially independent.
