In this week's episode of Building Wealthy Habits, Laura, Jeremiah, and Randy explore the world of the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement. They go deep on the key principles behind FIRE, from extreme savings to passive income, and how millennials are embracing the idea of financial independence and early retirement. And while everything with FIRE might sound fine and dandy, they do discuss the challenges that come with achieving FIRE, the impact of social media on setting unrealistic expectations, and the importance of balancing financial goals with personal values.
