He Quit His Job At 29 (Here's How) With Drew Lee | Master Money Video
In this episode of The Personal Finance Podcast, Drew Lee reveals how he walked away from his $92,000 engineering career at 29 after building a $300,000 net worth through automated index fund investing, then doubled his wealth to over $700,000 by age 35 while working at McDonald's and Frontier Airlines because these jobs brought him more happiness than corporate climbing. Drew breaks down his "coast FIRE" strategy that gave him freedom to prioritize time over income maximization, shares why he's been hiding his unconventional career path from his parents for five years, and discussed his current approach of withdrawing from retirement accounts to fund his dream of financial education content creation, proving you can design a life around your values rather than chasing traditional success markers.
