About friends on FIRE
Mike’s a dude who loves #s. He wrote a book. It’s on Amazon. His dad retired at 42, so early retirement is in his blood!
Maggie’s pretty cool. She early-retired at 41 along with her husband! And sometime’s she writes on her blog. It’s on the www.
If you really want to know more about us, we share it all here. Or listen to our podcast and we’ll share more than you ever wanted to know about two people. And most importantly, we hope listening will help you along your own personal finance or financial independence journey.
