I have been listening to the show for a number of years and I learnt a great deal about financial independence and have implemented a number of changes and improvements in my own lifestyle and finances as a result. Thanks for your efforts in putting the show together I really enjoyed the 100th episode with MMM
Mostly informative and educational. Thank you
Anyone who has the mental stamina and tolerance to sit down and interview Strawman arrogantly waffle on about nothing deserves 5 stars. Matt is a complete genius for having this ability. Who knows what the content was (I don’t have the tolerance to listen) but Matt deserves a medal. All his other eps are outstanding and I can vouch for them.
One half of the host for the first and last episode I will listen to is so privileged he can’t believe women would ever want to work for a living. On what planet do we live on again and what century? His friends and family must all be country bumpkins that hate independent women. Literally cannot finish the episode. There are better FIRE podcasts that get offensive or personal. They just talk financial knowledge and literacy.
Top quality content.
Great show with interesting and diverse topics.
It’s great to hear stories from people on their way to FI.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
