Driving Towards FIRE - Alternate Lifestyles for FI: Recent Episodes
Brett
Just your average Mid-Thirties married couple on a debt free and financial independent journey. We travel, work, and play in our 42 foot 5th wheel RV named Chappie. We’ve been on the road more than 2 years (730 days) and we’ve successfully paid off $180,000 worth of debt. We have just $63,000 left. Each week we’ll discuss our plans, path, & journey to reach FI. We wanted to have a place where the nomadic, travel, debt free, & Financial Independence communities have a place to share their stories with us and others. Please join us!
On episode 8, we feature Dave and Kari a young couple living, working, traveling, and exploring our country while paying off debt. They travel and live in their 24 foot travel trailer with their dog, Beau. They are coming up on a full year of nomadic living and recently paid off a chunk of debt in just 7 months time.
