New York Public Library's "Top 10 Think Thrifty Reads of 2023"
"This book blew my mind. More importantly, it made financial independence seem achievable. I read Financial Freedom three times, cover-to-cover."
—Lifehacker
Money is unlimited. Time is not. Become financially independent as fast as possible.
In 2010, 24-year old Grant Sabatier woke up to find he had $2.26 in his bank account. Five years later, he had a net worth of over $1.25 million, and CNBC began calling him "the Millennial Millionaire." By age 30, he had reached financial independence. Along the way he uncovered that most of the accepted wisdom about money, work, and retirement is either incorrect, incomplete, or so old-school it's obsolete.
Financial Freedom is a step-by-step path to make more money in less time, so you have more time for the things you love. It challenges the accepted narrative of spending decades working a traditional 9 to 5 job, pinching pennies, and finally earning the right to retirement at age 65, and instead offers readers an alternative: forget everything you've ever learned about money so that you can actually live the life you want.
Sabatier offers surprising, counter-intuitive advice on topics such as how to:
* Create profitable side hustles that you can turn into passive income streams or full-time businesses
* Save money without giving up what makes you happy
* Negotiate more out of your employer than you thought possible
* Travel the world for less
* Live for free--or better yet, make money on your living situation
* Create a simple, money-making portfolio that only needs minor adjustments
* Think creatively--there are so many ways to make money, but we don't see them.
But most importantly, Sabatier highlights that, while one's ability to make money is limitless, one's time is not. There's also a limit to how much you can save, but not to how much money you can make. No one should spend precious years working at a job they dislike or worrying about how to make ends meet. Perhaps the biggest surprise: You need less money to "retire" at age 30 than you do at age 65.
Financial Freedom is not merely a laundry list of advice to follow to get rich quick--it's a practical roadmap to living life on one's own terms, as soon as possible.

If you have read the synopsis and gotten as far as reading the reviews, buy the book. Even if you already know the terminology around finance, Financial Freedom's biggest strength is its power to motivate you. After reading the book, every night I have gladly worked on implementing strategies recommended by the author, Grant Sabatier. Read the book, make notes of your questions, then join the Financial Freedom Facebook group to ask the author himself or some of the other very knowledgeable people there how you can make financial freedom happen for you. Get started on your journey ASAP!
The longer version
----------------------
If I could reverse time, I would have read this book in my 20's. I would absolutely encourage anyone in their 20's or 30's (especially if you don't yet have or aren't planning on kids) to follow Mr. Sabatier's advice to the best of your abilities. His book breaks down the mystique around finances for young people and gives them step-by-step goals to work toward in a way that is digestible and not paralyzingly complicated. This is incredibly informative for people who didn't grow up with finance savvy parents or whose education didn't include the faintest trace of managing money (yes, I am looking at you U.S. public school system...). I wish I had gotten this as a college graduation gift!
This doesn't mean that if you aren't in the above mentioned "ideal" reader group that all is lost (Disclosure: I am almost 40 with a family) but it does make some of the advice more problematic to act on. I still found many of the suggestions in the book valuable. With that said, I feel pretty confident that anyone interested in early retirement will find something of value in the book.
Grant (and you do start to think of him as your personal friend, Grant, because he is so relatable and down to earth) lays out his personal finance situation in a way that will resonate with most people. All of us have been pretty dead broke at one point in time or another. What we haven't done, that Grant has, is to find the right way to make our money work for us. The terminology alone for dealing with finances can seem confusing and overwhelming.... 401k, Traditional IRA, Roth IRA, REIT, oh my! Financial Freedom may not answer every question you have on finances but it will help you get informed enough to start asking the right questions. Grant's personal story will get you thinking about your own light at the end of the tunnel. What does retirement look like to you? When do you want to achieve that? 10 years? 20? How hard are you willing to work to get there sooner? The author gets you really thinking about the answers to questions like these.
What makes the experience of reading Mr. Sabatier's book truly exceptional is that the conversation he starts with you in the book doesn't have to end when you finish reading it. He is fostering a community for people whose curiosity has been sparked so we can continue the financial freedom conversation on a more personal level. His Facebook group is there to help support you, the reader, as you start to implement changes in your life on your journey to financial independence. Despite being on book tour, he is actively answering questions in person on the Financial Freedom Book group. I commend Mr. Sabatier on his efforts to reach people. He seems to truly care about helping as many people as possible.
In summary, there are other books out there that have some of the same advice in them but Grant Sabatier's book is enjoyable to read. He's done the hard work already of sifting out the most important things you need to know and what you need to act on now. Financial Freedom is not an encyclopedia of financial knowledge, it's the Cliff's Notes. It will not answer every question you will have about gaining financial independence but it will absolutely make sure you are on the right track. The best part about reading it, you will be motivated to get your party started!
