But what if that’s not the only path to freedom?\n\nIn this episode, Brian Herriot and co-host Kirby Denison challenge the traditional retirement model and explore why building a giant nest egg isn’t the only way to live free. From questioning the 4% rule to highlighting the rise of “un-retirees,” they show how working longer (with purpose and flexibility) can actually feel more liberating than retiring early.\n\nYou’ll walk away with a new perspective on savings, purpose, and the lifestyle design choices that let you enjoy life now—not just decades from now."}
