What is FI?
What would you do if you weren't dependent on your 9-5 paycheque?
Travel the world, pen your novel, or relish family moments?
Financial Independence (FI) is your gateway to this life. By crafting income streams — through investments or passive income — that sustain you, you aren't just saving; you're reclaiming your time. This is the FI movement: purposeful living, on your terms, free from the 9-5 tether.
