About this listen

Retire Early or Enjoy Now?Welcome to the 9 to FI Podcast with Elliot and Josh! In this episode, we explore the evolution of the Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) movement. Starting with 'Old School' FIRE principles, focused on extreme frugality and rapid wealth accumulation, we transition into the emerging 'New FIRE' concepts like Slow FI, Barista FI, and Fat FI. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of each approach, share personal journeys, and debate which method might be best for different lifestyles. We wrap up with some fun, quick-fire questions and encourage you to reflect on your own path to financial independence.
