#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
