In this episode of the Expat Empire Podcast, we will be hearing from Eric Richard. Eric got interested in the principles of the FIRE movement (Financial Independence, Retire Early) in 2014 and reorganized his life to achieve his financial goals. He achieved leanFIRE in July 2019 by automating his savings and investments, avoiding lifestyle inflation, and utilizing travel hacking to ramp up his savings rate to over 60%! Achieving leanFIRE gave him the confidence to leave his corporate job behind and begin slow-traveling the world. After an amazing year traveling all over the world, the pandemic started and Eric decided to return to Austin, TX, and start working again to prepare for his next adventure.    LEARN in this episode:   ✔ How much money you need to have to retire early and live the life you've been dreaming about   ✔ Why you should mix the FIRE and digital nomad lifestyles and some tips for making ti happen   ✔ How to plan for what to do with your time after retiring early (even if you decide to continue working!)   FIND Eric at:   ►  Website: https://nomadonfire.com/   ►  Blog Post on Remote Year: https://nomadonfire.com/remote-year-review/   ►  The Nomad on Fire Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-nomad-on-fire-podcast/id1497852109   ►  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nomadonfire/   -----   SCHEDULE your free consulting call: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireContact   DOWNLOAD our free Top 10 Tips for Moving Abroad eBook: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireTop10   REVIEW us: https://ratethispodcast.com/expatempire   FOLLOW us on Social Media:   ► Instagram: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireIG   ► Facebook: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireFB   ► LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/ExpatEmpireLI
