On this episode of the BiggerPockets Money Podcast, hosts Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench sit down with Dave Fleischer, a teacher who's proving that you don't need a six-figure salary to achieve financial independence. Dave's story shows that FIRE isn’t only for high earners - he's built serious wealth while navigating the complex challenge of aligning financial goals with a spouse who had completely different money beliefs.

If you've ever felt discouraged because your FI number seems impossibly high or your current salary feels too small to build real wealth, this episode will completely shift your perspective. These guests prove that financial independence isn't about how much you make - it's about how strategically you manage what you have. Whether you're a teacher, or have a median income, or simply want to see how creative financial planning can accelerate your journey to freedom, you'll walk away with actionable strategies that work regardless of your income level. YOU can follow this simple path to achieve financial freedom, too!
