In this episode, I talked about the concept of financial freedom and shares three impactful lessons from my journey as a nurse. I explained what financial independence and the FIRE movement (Financial Independence Retire Early) are, and highlight my achievement of 'Coast FI,' a state where one's investments grow to cover retirement expenses without further contributions. The three main lessons shared are: 1) Money is a tool, not a goal, urging listeners to use money intentionally to create the life they want; 2) Investing is more powerful than merely earning more, emphasizing the importance of starting early to take advantage of compound interest; 3) Financial freedom is built on systems, not willpower, stressing the need for automated, consistent financial habits.
