Listen Later

Who said building wealth had to be complicated?

In this episode, we’re joined by JL Collins, author of The Simple Path to Wealth (recently revised).

JL was one of the pioneers of the FI space as we know it today, and has been coined “The Godfather of FI”.

During this interview, we cover:

  • If the Simple Path to Wealth still works in today’s economy
  • How to navigate a market downturn
  • How to build your investment portfolio
  • The power of compound interest
  • Why fees can destroy your returns
  • How to spend in alignment with your values
  • The real reason we accumulate money

    • And so much more.
