Publisher's summary

From two leaders of the FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) movement, a bold, contrarian guide to retiring at any age, with a reproducible formula to financial independence

A bull***t-free guide to growing your wealth, retiring early, and living life on your own terms

Kristy Shen retired with a million dollars at the age of 31, and she did it without hitting a home run on the stock market, starting the next Snapchat in her garage, or investing in hot real estate. Learn how to cut down on spending without decreasing your quality of life, build a million-dollar portfolio, fortify your investments to survive bear markets and black-swan events, and use the four percent rule and the Yield Shield - so you can quit the rat race forever. Not everyone can become an entrepreneur or a real estate baron; the rest of us need Shen's mathematically proven approach to retire decades before 65.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio. The PDF includes detailed charts, graphs, formulas, illustrated strategies, and the complete appendices from the book, to help reach financial independence and retire early.

Critic reviews

“This book wants you to be rich: in money, in time, and in life. You have come to the right place. Kristy and Bryce take you through the process step by step, with actionable things that you can do no matter what your age, location, background, or education.” (JL Collins, best-selling author of The Simple Path to Wealth)

“Kristy Shen and Bryce Leung, in a few hundred delightful, information-packed pages, shows exactly how Kristy went from rags (in China) to riches (retired world traveler millionaire at 30). Their stories are fascinating, told in a no-nonsense style that busts through any excuses. Their precise investment strategies, explained clearly, show you how to both get financially independent - and stay there. And they're hilarious.” (Vicki Robin, New York Times best-selling coauthor of Your Money or Your Life)

"Quit Like a Millionaire is the best possible combination: Life-changing information with a page-turning writing style that you simply cannot put down! Equal parts engaging, hilarious, and transformative, Kristy and Bryce deliver with the rare book that'll make you look at the world a little bit differently." (Brad Barrett, cohost of the ChooseFI podcast)

Retirement 101

Why didn't I read this ten years ago?! You've brought clarity to the act of saving and a fool-proof method to achieving your dream life. Highly entertaining and educational for ALL retirement savers (but mostly beginners like me). Loved it!

Great overview and new topics/ideas

I have read several FIRE books or books similar about early retirement. This brought unique ideas and topics that weren’t mentioned in others. Very relatable and well written.

Required reading for anyone just getting started!

This audiobook contains the information I wish I had when I was first getting started in my adult life 30 years ago. There's so much actionable information. I especially enjoyed the section covering the POT score. I intend to have my teenage son read/listen to this book and hopefully apply the principals of the POT score and other tips asap so he'll be able to achieve his financial and other dreams relatively quickly. This should be required reading for any teenager preparing to enter the real world and make their way. For the audiobook itself, Kristy really delivers when it comes to narrating her life's story. Awesome book!

A must read!

Loved this straightforward, myth-busting formula to achieve FI. A must read for anyone wanting to play the game of life and money and win! I loved how Kristy breaks down the scarcity mindset and how it can become a super tool for creating wealth. Powerful!
