Publisher's summary

"A practical mix of finance, philosophy and psychology. Dave is an Aussie FIRE pioneer." (Aussie Firebug)

What would life be like if you never had to work for money again?

That might sound like a fantasy. But gaining financial freedom is far more achievable than you think.

Dave Gow retired at 28, after a decade of working as a forklift driver. He didn’t win the lottery, inherit a fortune, or get lucky in the stock market. Instead, he discovered a simple set of principles that helped him spend less and invest more, all while increasing his happiness.

If you’re fed up with the rat race and wish you could live a life of freedom and fulfilment, his story will show you the path. In this book, you’ll learn:

  • The mindset that helped Dave build wealth and retire at 28
  • Proven tactics to optimise your spending for more savings and more enjoyment
  • How to easily build a portfolio of passive-income-producing investments
  • The secrets for living a happy and satisfying life while working towards your financial goals

From the author of the popular Strong Money Australia blog, this book is your complete roadmap to reaching financial independence and retiring early in Australia.

“Most people think financial independence isn’t possible on a normal salary, but this book shows exactly how it’s done.” (Pete Wargent, author of Get a Financial Grip)

“Dave’s story is an honest and inspiring reflection of what it takes to succeed financially. His book is a field guide for understanding the world of money, and yourself.” (Owen Raszkiewicz, founder of Rask)

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

An excellent book on FIRE

I have listened to a few books on financial independence. I think Dave does a great job of putting forward the arguments for saving and investing money. Even my husband listened to it. And it is practical too.

Although I preferred "Quit Like A Millionaire" for the investment advice and she talked more about diversifying your investments, I liked that this book also covered it from an Australian perspective. And Dave also has more of a view to the environmental impact our decisions are having on the world - which was great.

Everyone will have their own flavour of FIRE, so I think all of these books add to the richness of the topic.

Excellent, real-world advice

Well paced, practical advice specifically for Australians. Actionable advice, well-researched, and absolutely devoid of jargon and BS.
