I’m curious to hear from those who’ve reached financial independence at an early age, specifically without relying on real estate as part of their investment strategy.

What were your main sources of income or investment vehicles?

How did you diversify your portfolio, and what were the biggest challenges you faced?

Any advice for someone aiming to achieve FIRE without venturing into property investments?

Me! Next week is my last week at work and I’m FIRE’d. I’m 43. Still trying to wrap my mind around all of it.

Curious why “without real estate” is the question. Investing a large percent of your income in general is the key to FIRE.

At 41 both spouse and I had military careers we retired from. Pays all the bills.

Investing in low cost index funds is along the way added creme on top.

52. Not sure if that is early. Only my own house.

I do. 38. But not completely retired though. Still running online store and airbnb rental, 4 hours working a day.

A lot of people fire without real estate retiring by stocks is very common

47 and 50 and we could if we wanted to. But working another 5-10 years would create generational wealth.

29 and could leave my job anytime by investing in real estate. I stay at my job to buy more real estate, have insurance, and 401k
