I like to talk about money, living a good life, and more. I hope you have a chance to stop by and listen! I'm also on Instagram: @frompaycheckstopurpose (https://www.instagram.com/frompaycheckstopurpose/)
In this week's episode, Green joins me again! We give our opinions on a question recently posted on CoastFI and BaristaFI subreddits. This person's situation is very relevant to others in the not quite FI camp looking to expand their options, and we talk through our thoughts, as well as comment on the responses that the poster received on Reddit. We also discuss how this person could really use the RiskFI calculator, and Green shares a new segment of the calculator called GapFI where you can specifically look at how different gap periods in income change your FI timelines. Hope you enjoy!

Risk FI ft. Green (My Husband)
In this week's episode, my husband (nicknamed Green) and I discuss Green's recent journey down the FI rabbit hole. As someone who took this journey almost 6 years ago, it's been fun to have Green take a recent deep dive into the subject. we discuss a few FI podcasts he has really been enjoying, and his recent foray into his own concept of "Risk FI" - what it means, and a recent app he has been working on related to it.

A Cautionary Tale About Gambling
In this week's episode, I share a true story about how an extended family member of mine seriously altered their life through gambling. I share this story because the reality is that gambling is more widespread and easy to access than ever, and I don't think everyone grew up with an example of how things can go seriously awry with it like I did. I hope that this will help listeners avoid gambling addiction, and that it will help parents caution their kids into not falling into the trap that gambling can create.
