J & Gwen bring you another special solo episode. It's EXTRA SPECIAL because we recorded LIVE at Podcast Movement 2018 in Philadelphia! Don't worry, only one drink apiece was harmed in the recording of this episode. We get deep into who Gwen & J are and how they came to be from some of their earliest memories. We also talk about some of the really cool podcasters we met at PM18 and give an update, or two, on how the rental property business is going for both Gwen & J.

Show notes and links from today's episode Vicki Robin Afford Anything episode VetStory podcast Letters from War (aka most emotional song ever) Letters from War podcast Without Warning podcast Congressional Dish podcast Soarpreneur podcast Key takeaways from our chat: 1 - J is very family oriented J & Gwen talk about some of their earliest and most defining memories from growing up. Gwen shares a cute story of learning how to whistle, while J talks about the dangers of growing up with a Boston accent.... duh duh duh duhhhhhh. It's interesting to hear the differences in childhood as J grew up as a member of a loud, boisterous tribe and Gwen grew up in basically the polar opposite lifestyle. 2 - Gwen & J survived the semi-sketchy Airbnb Despite worrying about the apartment burning down while we slept, we made it through the week just fine! The sketch AirBnb did not burn down or get burgled. Gwen did leave a less than glowing review of her stay, in case you were wondering. 3 - The Power of Community No matter where you go, almost around the world, you can find people in the FI community. J & Gwen had an absolute blast meeting up with people in Philadelphia at the Podtastrophe meetup. We got to hear from and have conversations with real people who listen to FIRE Drill. We got feedback on the podcast, celebrated wins with some people and commiserated over real estate stories. So, if you're ever in Seattle or wherever Gwen is, hit us up! We'd love to hang out!
