Hey there!
I’m writing this from Croatia, where I’m beginning five weeks of travel that I’m calling my September Sabbatical. From now through September 23rd, I’ll be exploring the globe and enjoying a one-month break.
Today, I’m kicking things off with a community-based episode. Here’s the backstory behind today’s show:
There’s an event called CampFI, which is a 3-4 day gathering for people who are interested in financial independence. CampFI holds around half a dozen events per year in various locations; I spoke at one in Colorado Springs this past July.
While I was there, two other podcasters and I decided to interview the participants to find out their “why of FI.” What motivates them to build financial independence?
These interviews and stories from the community are today’s episode.
Enjoy!
Thanks to our sponsors!
