About this episode

The episode features an interview with Kyle Prevost, who shares insights from over 400 interviews with personal finance experts on achieving and protecting financial independence in Canada.

Today, we have a Canadian guest who has literally done over 400 interviews with different personal finance experts over the years, many of which were specifically for Canadians. Today, I pick his brain on the common conclusions, best practices, and recurring advice he's heard after interviewing so many personal finance experts. My guest, Kyle Prevost, is also part of the FIRE (financial independence, retire early) movement and was able to hit his financial independence number at a very early age. I pick his brain on what safe withdrawal rate he has settled on and why, based on his extensive research, so that he doesn't run out of money in his early retirement and is able to live off his portfolio permanently. I also ask him what has really moved the needle for him in terms of growing his net worth to reach financial independence so quickly, and what he does now to help ensure that he stays financially independent and doesn't have to go back to work, when we have the next major stock market crash.
