91. Amy and Matt from FI Freedom Retreats
Episode description
Welcome back to the Aussie Firebug Podcast, the financial independence podcast for Australians, where I interview interesting people on topics relating to financial independence.
Today on the podcast we have Amy and her partner Matt from FI Freedom Retreats, a five-day financial independence retreat in Bali.
This was a passion project born out of Amy’s love and gratitude for the F.I.R.E movement and community.
Heads up, I recorded this podcast in January this year and haven’t released it until now because I’ve been distracted with other things. This means there’s a good chance there won’t be any spots left in the retreat for this year, but I think you’ll still find our conversation interesting.
Some of the topics we cover in today’s episode are:
- Amy’s fear-based relationship with money (00:02:29)
- Geo-arbitraging in Mexico, Thailand, and Bali (00:09:37)
- Matt & Amy’s experience with healthcare while living in SE Asia (00:14:42)
- 90% savings rate in SE Asia (00:22:45)
- Why Amy started FI Freedom Retreats (00:35:41)
- Matt & Amy’s top tips for pursuing FI and living your best life (00:46:36)
