About Me

About Me

Mr Why925

Hi. According to 4% rule we are currently financially independent and I have retired from my last Job in 2017. I am another cubicle hating ex-employee who got fascinated by FIRE community for most of the last decade. Nine to five jobs do not seem to work for me very well currently, so me and my wife we took a break in 2017 and moved to Sunshine Coast, Australia from busy Sydney. On my website I would like to share my ideas about things mostly related to financial independence like finance, health, travel, work etc. I have economics and accounting background but I am not qualified financial adviser. Also I would like to ask you to be patient with me as I am new to blogging and web design.
