105) Steve Adcock - Financially Free and Retired Early at 35

Today’s conversation is with Steve Adcock, entrepreneur and writer. Expect to learn about FIRE, how Steve made the decision to pursue early retirement from a well paid job, and even the other career choices he turned down to instead retire at just 35 years old. This episode is an opportunity to dive inside the mind of someone who negated their materialistic tendencies and instead built a plan that he executed to achieve the ultimate freedom. You will learn what the process involved from a mindset and communication perspective as well as a detailed break down of the numbers, percentages and figures involved. Steve also shares how people can build wealth in a normal 9-5 and maximise your earnings to give you the earliest possible retirement date. I ask about what life looks like now for Steve and his wife in their retirement, especially around stress, fulfilment as well as general health and fitness. We wrap up with a discussion on FI principles, how Steve’s net worth has changed since retirement, what a fluctuation in the investment market means for his life, and I learn more about why high earners are not necessarily wealthy.
