How Financial Independence Gives You More Career Options

Sometimes the goal of saving and investing isn't just to have more money later. It's to give yourself more choices along the way like leaving the military when you want, taking work sabbaticals, changing careers, or focusing on your health and your family.

In this episode, David Robinson and I talk about financial independence, mini retirements, and how to know when you may have enough financial flexibility to make a change. We also get into one of the biggest concerns around leaving the military or stepping away from traditional employment, healthcare.

David is a former Navy submariner and financial planner who works with people considering early retirement, sabbaticals, and other major career changes. We also talk about his own experience with burnout and mental health while serving, and why building financial freedom became about much more than retiring early.
