255: Escaping The Rat Race Before Your First Job w/ Dan Sheeks
Manage episode 311077432 series 1900058
If you’ve been in the FI community for years, you know the ins and outs of retirement planning, index fund investing, house hacking, and every other money-making opportunity around. But, it’s safe to say that this took you years to figure out, sometimes well into adulthood. What if you were given the same knowledge you have now, but when you were a teenager?
Dan Sheeks is trying to do this exactly, by teaching his students about personal finance, saving, investing, and how they can plan for FI. Dan has taken his knowledge of finance, teaching, and working with teens to write First to a Million, a Teenager’s Guide to Achieving Financial Independence. In this book, Dan takes teens on a journey through the four mechanisms of financial independence and teaches them to plan money around what makes them happy.
So many teenagers have seen their parents run off to work only to come home exhausted, constantly checking emails, and rarely present with the family. Dan wants to make this all-too-real future a thing of the past for teens who are willing to work hard, be frugal, and practice financial discipline.
In This Episode We Cover
Why The American Dream may be off-course for modern teens
The financial independence “plan of attack” for teens who want to hit FI fast
Why happiness should be at the forefront of your financial decisions
Whether or not college is still a viable choice for today’s modern working world
The importance of having a strong community you can count on
And So Much More!
