Life on the road

Post by Matty »

A friend at work had his final day at the office today. He has quit to live a life on the road with his wife. His wife is a musician and plans to make money busking and playing gigs along the way while he plans to sell some of his photography. They recently took 6 months off as a trial period to see if they could make it work and it did. They ended up saving more money on the road from her gigs than they did living in the city living in a house with his full time wage. It may not be something they do forever but they own a block of land waiting to build a modest house on to raise kids when they return.

My friend is an inspiration to me. He has made his dreams possible with a bit of careful planning, frugality, avoidance of unnecessary debt but most of all the determination and commitment. He doesn't have a FI stash but he has what he needs.
