About this listen

The International Bestseller

New York Public Library's "Top 10 Think Thrifty Reads of 2023"

"This book blew my mind. More importantly, it made financial independence seem achievable. I read Financial Freedom three times, cover-to-cover."
Lifehacker

Money is unlimited. Time is not. Become financially independent as fast as possible.


In 2010, 24-year old Grant Sabatier woke up to find he had $2.26 in his bank account. Five years later, he had a net worth of over $1.25 million, and CNBC began calling him "the Millennial Millionaire." By age 30, he had reached financial independence. Along the way he uncovered that most of the accepted wisdom about money, work, and retirement is either incorrect, incomplete, or so old-school it's obsolete.

Financial Freedom is a step-by-step path to make more money in less time, so you have more time for the things you love. It challenges the accepted narrative of spending decades working a traditional 9 to 5 job, pinching pennies, and finally earning the right to retirement at age 65, and instead offers readers an alternative: forget everything you've ever learned about money so that you can actually live the life you want.

Sabatier offers surprising, counter-intuitive advice on topics such as how to:

*
Create profitable side hustles that you can turn into passive income streams or full-time businesses
* Save money without giving up what makes you happy
* Negotiate more out of your employer than you thought possible
* Travel the world for less
* Live for free--or better yet, make money on your living situation
* Create a simple, money-making portfolio that only needs minor adjustments
* Think creatively--there are so many ways to make money, but we don't see them.

But most importantly, Sabatier highlights that, while one's ability to make money is limitless, one's time is not. There's also a limit to how much you can save, but not to how much money you can make. No one should spend precious years working at a job they dislike or worrying about how to make ends meet. Perhaps the biggest surprise: You need less money to "retire" at age 30 than you do at age 65.

Financial Freedom is not merely a laundry list of advice to follow to get rich quick--it's a practical roadmap to living life on one's own terms, as soon as possible.

Great audiobook! Managed to finish in a week whilst commuting to and from work and thoroughly enjoyed it. whilst the tips and tricks throughout are very valuable, there are certain areas that lean towards Americans only (I live in the UK), but that shouldnt stop you from giving it a go wherever you are from.
My journey to financial freedom began after the first chapter and having listened through to the end I can now forsee what I need to do and how long it will take to get to my journeys end.

Great book, triggers instant change in your life

Only put this as 4 stars as a lot of the content is tailored towards an American audience. Which is great if you live in America but not if you live elsewhere. Apart from that the book is really insightful and I’d recommend.

Enjoyable and Interesting

great book

This book was brilliant. It was very inspiring and what was particularly good was how practical it was, literally giving you step by step advice. The only negative was that it is quite specific to America so a lot less applicable to UK listeners like me but still worth a listen.

Very practical and well worth a listen
