| 1/7/24 | 89. Terry - Wealth Time Freedom (WTF) | Today's episode is something a bit different. Terry, the host of the Wealth Time Freedom (WTF) podcast interviewed me a few months ago. The response was so positive from that episode that I decided to repost it on my show. In this episode, Terry asks me about becoming a dad, my recent pivot with work and my new perspective on FIRE. I found it to be a great conversation, and I hope you'll enjoy it too. LinksPodcast - Wealth Time Freedom (WTF)www.aussiefirebug.com/podcast | 1h 15m 55s | ||||||
| 12/17/23 | 88. Captain FI - Financially free at 29 | Today, my guest is fellow FIRE enthusiast/podcaster/blogger, Captain FI! He’s actually been on the podcast before but I had to take that episode down due to ASIC’s 2022 guidelines. Cap came and stayed at the Firebug household after attending the Rask event in my hometown. It was a lot of fun meeting and greeting others from the FIRE community and it was extra special to do so in my own backyard. This was very much an improv podcast and I didn’t have any set questions. We had a general chi... | 1h 19m 09s | ||||||
| 12/10/23 | 87. Clayton - My Accountant | Today, my guest is none other than my accountant, Clayton! Clayton and I have talked about doing this podcast for a while. I pay him thousands of dollars each year to help with tax planning, structuring our investments and businesses and other strategic decisions that ultimately help me reach FIRE sooner.

| 10/22/23 |  86. FIRE/Life Update | I've been thinking about this post for the past 18 months, and to be honest, it's long overdue. So much has changed over the last 11 years since I first stumbled across FIRE. And if the podcast's feature image wasn't obvious enough, I recently became a father. So, now is the perfect time for a big update/recap on life at the Firebug household. www.aussiefirebug.com/podcast | 22m 40s | ||||||

Is Super fulfilling its job? etc. We have two returning guests joining in today’s discussion. CIO of The Motley Fool Austral... | 48m 27s | ||||||
