Episode 1396: How to Manage Your Career to Make Millions More by ESI of ESI Money on Wealth Building Advice

ESI Money is written by "ESI", a 50-something retiree. The site is basically a list of what's allowed him to become financially independent and how you can implement those successes in your life. His philosophy is simple and focuses on doing three simple things to achieve financial independence: earn, save, invest. There's a bit more to it than that, of course, but if you can concentrate on these three areas, they will get you at least 90% of the way there.

1395: Do You Need a Financial Advisor by Darrow Kirkpatrick of Can I Retire Yet Jan 03, 2021

Show notes

Darrow Kirkpatrick of Can I Retire Yet helps you figure out whether or not you need a financial advisor.

Episode 1395: Do You Need a Financial Advisor by Darrow Kirkpatrick of Can I Retire Yet

Darrow Kirkpatrick is the founder of CanIRetireYet.com. He began serious investing in his mid-30s and retired at age 50. He's not a dot com millionaire and didn't become financially independent by flipping real estate or trading hot stocks. He did it the traditional way: hard work, frugality, prudent investing, and patience.
When it comes to personal finance, his top priorities are simplicity, reliability, and safety. Now his mission is to help others become financially independent as he did.

More recently, Chris Mamula has been managing the blog and he's a frequent writer on the site. Chris used principles of traditional retirement planning, combined with creative lifestyle design, to retire from a career as a physical therapist at age 41. After poor experiences with the financial industry early in his professional life, he educated himself on investing and tax planning. Now he draws on his experience to write about wealth building, DIY investing, financial planning, early retirement, and lifestyle design.
