Financial freedom is amazing. It’s the freedom that comes with knowing all of your outgoings and bills are covered without you having to go to work.

Lots of folks reach financial independence when they retire, we reached it in 2015 when we were 43 years old.

Here we round up how we did it, and what we have learned from retiring early.
