Show Notes

Diania Merriam is the founder of the EconoMe Conference, an exclusive gathering for the FIRE community (financial independence, retire early). Inspired by FIRE, Diania hit an impressive 60% savings rate and retired at 33. Of course, in retirement, you've got to stay active; what's the point of financial freedom if you've got nothing to do? Diania joins Jesse today to discuss CoastFI, SlowFI, and the need to enjoy the journey. If you're saving for retirement, but aren't sure what to do with that retirement, this episode is for you!

Key Takeaways:

  • What inspired Diania to walk the Camino de Santiago.

  • How to disconnect for your career with purpose.

  • Why you need a vision for what your retirement will look like.

  • Don't wait for financial independence to change your life.

  • What are SlowFI and CoastFI?

  • How to be an efficient saver, not a deprived saver.

  • Why FI is better with friends.
