In this episode of the Extreme Personal Finance Show, I’m joined by guest and my good friend Kevin about the importance of community in personal finance and life.
Kevin is a retired, and who achieved financial independence at age 43! The conversation explores how communities can provide support, motivation, and purpose, especially during major life transitions like retirement or leaving the workforce.
We discuss different types of communities (identity-based vs. affinity-based), how community involvement can improve mental and physical health, and personal examples of how community has enriched their lives, particularly in the financial independence community and heavy metal community!
