Summary
I love to talk with people who have achieved financial independence. But I especially love to talk to those financially independent people who have achieved it in a very accessible way!
Frankly, it's hard to relate to a tech titan who sells their latest greatest app company for a billion dollars.
But I can relate to someone who has simply worked hard, saved aggressively, invested conservatively, built an entrepreneurial side hustle and achieved their results over time!
My guest today is Scott Alan Turner and he's done exactly that. Sit back, relax, and enjoy his story! And make sure to take special note of how you can copy and model him and his success.
Enjoy!
Joshua

| 0:00.0 | My guest today on Radical Personal Finance is a dude who did it. |
| 0:03.9 | He charted out a path to financial independence at a young age and |
| 0:07.6 | worked like a maniac, saved like a crazy guy, |
| 0:11.8 | and he did it. He's now financially independent. He's going to share with us a little |
| 0:17.5 | bit about his story, what worked, what didn't, and was it worth it? Welcome to the Radical Personal Finance Podcast. My name is Joshua Sheets and I'm your host. Thank you for being |
| 0:42.8 | with me today. Today I bring you an interview with Scott Allen Turner. |
| 0:47.0 | Recorded this one at Podcast Movement in Fort Worth, Texas, back in August. |
| 0:51.0 | Scott's a really young, really awesome guy. I thought he was young |
| 0:55.1 | but I don't think he's quite that young, but he's a really cool guy and I'm thrilled to make his acquaintance |
| 1:00.5 | and you're basically going to hear me learn about his story, but he's |
| 1:04.6 | where most of us want to get to. |
| 1:07.0 | He's the guy to learn from. |
| 1:11.6 | One of the consistent themes on radical personal finances is financial independence. |
| 1:15.0 | I believe that should be a goal for most of us. |
| 1:19.0 | Now what that looks like will vary depending on our background, our circumstances, the type of lifestyle |
| 1:24.7 | that we envision for ourselves, and the numbers will be very different depending on what aspect, |
| 1:28.8 | you know, financial independence for some is 3,000 a month and financial independence for others is 30,000 a month. |
| 1:35.0 | And I don't think personally my own opinion, take it as simply an opinion, my own opinion is that |
| 1:41.0 | financial independence isn't really the ultimate goal it's just a |
| 1:44.3 | step on the way and it's a worthy goal if you're working you might as well work |
| 1:48.6 | towards something and if you're saving you might as well save toward financial |
