Financial Independence, Retire Early (FIRE) is a movement dedicated to the foundations of Financial Independence (FI) that allow you to retire far earlier than traditional budgets and retirement plans would allow. The movement is about making small optimizations in your lifestyle giving you the freedom to live your happiest most satisfying life and pursue your dreams and ambitions on your own schedule, all without being tied down to a traditional 9 to 5 job for 40+ years.
Come prepared to learn a lot from our diverse group of those on their way to Financial Independence. You can also sign-up for the emails about this and future events at http://eepurl.com/i1CUJM
