About this listen

 What does life look like when you stop trading time for money and start living on your own terms? In this episode of Everyone’s Talkin’ Money, I sit down with Daniel C. Rodgers — award-winning author of Escape The Clock: Your Program Guide for Financial Freedom and Early Retirement and host of the Escape the Clock Podcast. After 20 years in tech, Daniel walked away from the 9-to-5 grind to design a life filled with purpose, freedom, and impact. Today, he teaches financial literacy, coaches people one-on-one, and helps others create personalized roadmaps to financial independence. You’ll hear: Why the traditional retirement model no longer works — and what’s replacing it The truth about FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) and whether it’s realistic How to calculate your number instead of chasing someone else’s formula The psychology of money, golden handcuffs, and what really holds people back Why financial freedom isn’t about escaping work — it’s about choosing purpose If you’ve ever dreamed of retiring early, ditching the clock, or simply creating more freedom in your life, this conversation will give you both the mindset and the practical steps to make it happen.
