Since finding the FIRE movement back in 2015, things sure have changed. FIRE stands for Financial Independence/Retire Early and recently there’s been a huge shift away from personal finance and into the world of life coaching and happiness.
There certainly isn’t anything wrong with setting goals and being happy, but it definitely doesn’t have much to do with budgets or bottom lines.
In this episode, we discuss the shift in FIRE and whether or not it’s still a genuine message.
Show Notes:
- The changing face of FIRE
- The shift from personal finance to happiness and life coaching
- Glamorizing side hustles
- Demonizing corporate jobs
- Unrealistic nest egg projections
