Listen Later

How do you figure out the right time to have kids? Kids will derail your path to FI, cost you more than you think and are very hard to time.

After leaving his job at the age of 34 and negotiating a very sweet severance package, Sam from Financial Samurai talks to us about financial planning, the cost of having children and why it's better to have children sooner than later.

Sam has a very interesting story and you will love hearing his advice and family planning tips.

We also chat about...

The quick path to FI,
The middle-class families with $300,000 incomes,
His biggest mistakes when family planning,
Why you want a severance package,
How to engineer your layoff,
