Thanks Bob. I took your financial advice and quit my job today. I feel excited about the future.

Enjoy your youth but prepare for getting old. If you think working when you're young sucks, it get's worse the older you get unless you can get a cushy job that pays well (not everybody can).

Minimizing monthly expenses makes financial independence that much quicker. It's truly amazing what compound interest can do to a retirement account.

I’ll be honest with you yes I do like my job, and yes I would still do it if they cut my pay 50% but I wouldn’t allow it. I’ve retired at 40 as a carpenter of new homes, and skyscrapers. What I learned is I can’t completely stop working, sorry working I can stop I mean being active.

What’s even better than coast FI is coast semi-FI or coast barista FI! Knowing you could take a job making $25K a year and live comfortably with that alongside 4% of your portfolio is a pretty empowering milestone on the way to full FI.

Love the channel - thanks for all the tips and knowledge ! Would love your thoughts or maybe an episode on UTMA/UGMA / 529 / Custodial Brokerage accounts, etc. Really want to get my kids started since they're young but could use some guidance and thought around it. Thank you!

I like the idea of coast fi. And agree with the logic. However, I disagree with the coasting for that long. For me, it takes too many assumptions into play. Maybe you don't have to be so aggressive, and enjoy the money more, but keep going and live well later.

I enjoy my work yes No if it paid less it probably be my fault because it would mean I'm not doing enuff work But I am getting closer to wanting to retire at 45

I do actually love my job. However, I just recently switched jobs (I didn't mind my last one either). If my job reduced my salary by 50% currently, I don't think I could stay unless I picked up a second job. If I didn't have debt, including the mortgage, and I only had ongoing expenses then 50% cut would probably be doable. I've always told myself and others that I'd like to be in a financial spot where I go to work because I want to and not because I have to.

Not a fan of my job, very unfulfilling and I don’t improve any skills, I’d quit even if they raise our pay
