Summary
Today we are talking with an Automotive Engineer who has built a 6 figure HSA and gown his net worth to over $2 million. He shows us that you do not have to make a half a million dollars or more a year to become a millionaire or to reach FIRE. He has a massive savings rate and got started right out of school. 13 years later he is well on his way to financial independence. He said it has always been important to him to have freedom and independence to choose what he wants to do without worrying about finances. He wants to be able to serve his community and maybe even teach personal finance when he is no longer working full time. After the interview we are going to talk about FIRE for Finance 101.
