Summary
You might think that only accountants or finance geniuses can figure out how to retire early, but this is not true. Our guest today retired at the age of 41! Chris Mamula was a physical therapist who wasn’t excited when he thought about the future. He decided to educate himself on how to reach financial independence and he couldn’t believe how easy it was.
Chris is a husband and dad who now enjoys an adventurous lifestyle on his own terms. He blogs at Can I Retire Yet, is part of the Choose FI movement, and is also the primary author of the book Choose FI: Your Blueprint to Financial Independence.
Today he shares his super simple financial independence tactics to help you put your wealth-building on autopilot.
