Making FIRE Possible e-Course

Extreme saving, earning lots of money, and winning the lottery aren't the only ways to achieve financial independence. We did it, even with regular jobs, while raising kids and living in a high cost of living city.

About Scott and Caroline

We are empty-nesters, recently hitting the age of 50. By 46, we had both escaped the 24/7 hustle of corporate culture (Scott in non-profit IT, and Caroline in HR) for a Pura Vida lifestyle, by focusing on FIRE.

We still work, just on projects we love, and we split our time between Jacksonville FL, New York City, and Tamarindo, Costa Rica.
