Balancing Financial Independence and Lifestyle Design

#27: It’s possible to enjoy your journey to financial
independence. You can use the incremental financial freedoms that
you gain along the way to incorporate aspects of your ideal life
into your life now. Lifestyle design is an important component of
creating an enjoyable and sustainable path to financial
independence. Sure, 10 or 15 years of work sounds short compared
to the typical 40 year career. But if you want to avoid burnout
and make the most of your time while you’re pursuing FI,
balancing financial independence with lifestyle design is
crucial.


In this episode, we cover:


The real goal of people pursuing FI (hint: it’s not early
retirement)

How FIRE doesn’t always turn out as expected

Case studies of early retired folks who’d change their
approach

Examples of people pursuing FI & lifestyle design
together

How to make the pursuit of FI enjoyable
