Episode 69 is all about how one queer, married couple is pursuing FIRE while earning different salaries. Listen to this episode to hear about a journey to FI/RE, love and money, and a six-figure debt payoff.
For Episode 69, we have G and J, the anonymous married couple behind Gay Husbands on FIRE.
This millennial couple is in their early 30s, living in NYC, and planning for a life of financial independence. J is originally from Colorado and G is originally from Colombia. They met in Philadelphia in 2013 and have been living together since 2015. They’re DINKs (double income no kids) on a journey to reach FIRE within the next decade!
You can follow their journey on Instagram.
