Each week, BusinessDesk and the NZ Herald’s Cooking the Books podcast tackles a different money problem. Today, it’s how a couple retired early for more family time. Hosted by Frances Cook.
Retiring early while your kids are still young enough actually to want to hang out with you? A dream, surely.
Well, this couple managed it through a combination of property investing and very frugal living, hitting their goal number in their early 30s.
They don’t feel as though they missed out on life, though, far from it – so here’s what they decided to keep and cut as they raced to early retirement.
For the latest podcast, I talked to Aleisha Rutherford.
