Episode notes

Is your W2 job causing you to burn out? You have dreams of achieving financial independence and retiring early, but the unrelenting demands of your nine-to-five job are causing you to work around the clock and miss precious moments with loved ones. If you’re feeling this way, you’re not alone!

Welcome back to another episode of the BiggerPockets Money podcast! Today’s guest, Amanda, has spent the last four years grinding toward an early retirement. Although the security of her husband’s reliable W2 income has allowed them to cover all of their expenses, invest in real estate, and grow their nest egg, they are quickly reaching a breaking point. As parents of four young children, they don’t want their busy work lives to keep them from what matters most. Is there a middle ground?

If your FIRE journey is causing you to burn the candle at both ends, this is an episode you won’t want to miss! Mindy and our guest co-host, Kyle Mast, share their perspectives on quitting your W2 job, finding work-life balance through real estate, and when it might be time to pump the brakes on your journey toward early retirement!
