Misconceptions of FI

The Financial Independence community has grown significantly since I discovered it back in 2014, bringing balance to the extreme spenders trying to keep up with their ‘crazy rich’ neighbors. There are dozens of new blogs, podcasts, and online resources that didn’t exist when I first started my journey.

The problem is, as the message spreads, so do the misconceptions. I find myself constantly addressing the same misunderstandings and myths with many of my readers, friends, and family just discovering FI, so I wanted to create a resource to debunk many of these myths once and for all. Let’s dive in!

From Frugal Husband…

“Do you ever wonder why you can’t get ahead with your finances? I used to ask myself that all the time. I’d go to work, get paid, and have no money left after bills. I often didn’t check my bank balance for fear of how deep into the negative I would go after paying necessities. Strange phone numbers went unanswered because I was afraid it was a bill collector. Little did I know it was my fear that allowed me to get into that situation, and it was keeping me in it.

In this post, I will share my story of how fear got me into debt, and how facing that fear stopped me from going back into debt.”
