About this listen
"A carefully-crafted combination of smart financial choices, simple living, and increased self-sufficiency brought me financial independence at 30 and allowed me to retire from my profession at 33. Early Retirement Extreme shows how I did it and how anyone can formulate their own plan for financial independence." (Jacob Lund Fisker, author)
In celebration of the 10-year anniversary of its publication and nearly 50,000 readers, Early Retirement Extreme is available as a freshly adapted, listener-friendly audiobook for the first time. If you're one of the 50,000, the audiobook is a perfect way to revisit the principles and framework of Early Retirement Extreme.
A classic text for advanced students of personal finance, each new listen will reveal new layers of insight as previous concepts click into place.
More than just a book on how to retire extremely early by spending less and earning more while investing in a few funds and hoping they go up in the long run. Written for those wanting a deep and detailed understanding of the strategies and building blocks required to design and live an interesting life independent of the winds of the economy. An information-dense study of economic resilience and how to thrive in an increasingly fragile job- and consumer-oriented world hitting its limits.
It teaches how a shift in focus from consuming to producing can help people out of the consumer trap and offers a path to achieving the freedom necessary to pursue interests other than working for a living. The principles in Early Retirement Extreme show how to break the financial chains that hold people back from doing what they truly want to do. The framework and principles revealed in the book has been used by many people over the last few years to accomplish a variety of goals. It provides people a means to achieve almost any goal, whether it’s debt-free living, extended travel, a sabbatical, a career change, time off to raise a child, a traditional retirement, or simply a desire for a more resilient and self-sufficient lifestyle. The book was initially written for people in their 20s and 30s, but its ideas aren’t limited to early retirees. Middle-aged people in the grips of consumerism can use the principles to take back control of their lives. People closer to retirement age who don’t feel adequately prepared can use it to set themselves up for a comfortable retirement in a relatively short period of time. Anyone worried about their financial future can use the principles in Early Retirement Extreme to make their future more secure.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Very few careers can offer you the freedom, flexibility, and income that day trading does. As a day trader, you can live and work anywhere in the world. You can decide when to work and when not to work. You only answer to yourself. That is the life of the successful day trader. Many people aspire to it, but very few succeed. In the audiobook, I describe the fundamentals of day trading, explain how day trading is different from other styles of trading and investment, and elaborate on important trading strategies that many traders use every day.

I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Recent statistics suggest that nearly two-thirds of Americans regret not planning properly for retirement. We tend to underestimate the key factors of retirement planning: our total lifespan; the probable length of our retirement; and, perhaps most significant, how much money we’ll need to fund those years in retirement. In fact, retirement planning can feel so overwhelming that many of us put off thinking about it at all until it’s too late to make the necessary changes.

Interesting view points enforcing what I felt I intuitively already felt but didn’t fully understand.
Highly recommend!

Excellent tips and interesting application of philosophy and systems theory
This title is not a financial guru book, something I like about it. It is structured to introduce a different lifestyle and wake up readers from there consumer daze.
I don’t think the strategies are all realistic nor do I like the fact the writer makes suggestions about children and family without truly having them. I skipped over some sections but ultimately will put the ideas in to practice (fishbone analysis, how to minimize waste and consumption, etc).
I do not however agree with this concept of hyper frugality. Read Mr money mustache for that.

A sustainable lifestyle!
To get the most of this book it is good to already be a little in the mindset that the author promotes. I’ve felt that something is wrong in life a long time and this book helps me come a little closer figuring out what is wrong in the modern society. Live sustainable and proud of your own achievements and have the life you want!
I found the examples of transportation the most useful as I’ve felt my car has held me back for a long time and caused me much anxiety and stress due to its black hole of sucking money out of my pocket.

Frugality Survival Guide
Anyone that hates on this book missed the point. The author isn’t trying to persuade anyone into a specific lifestyle, rather he is asking challenging questions that free the readers mind and enrich your life as you think them through and apply them to your life practically! Thank you so much for furthering my life and education ERE!

Excellent
Love this book! Listened to it multiple times! Very good philosophical approach. Don’t expect a “how to” as much as a “how to think and formulate your own plan.”
