Publisher's summary

From “The Godfather of FI”, a follow-up to his international best-selling personal finance sensation The Simple Path to Wealth!

Pathfinders brings together scores of amazing and insightful real-life stories from real people on the journey to financial independence—providing practical encouragement and inspiration for anyone who wants to join them.

Lighting the way in the real world to The Simple Path to Wealth, these are fascinating, heartfelt, often surprising tales:

  • of struggles overcome and the rewards that followed
  • of enterprising solutions to unexpected problems
  • of sacrifices made and the kindness of strangers
  • of surprisingly simple steps—and the amazing places they can take you
  • and much, much more

Author JL Collins accompanies these readers’ stories with reflections on his “rules for the road”—as well as a candid conversation about the journey to financial freedom with his daughter, the inspiration for his original international best seller.

Pathfinders is the ultimate companion for your own journey to financial freedom—and the true and lasting wealth that lies at the end.

Inspiring book.

Few of the stories were nothing exceptional. As people were just following the ‘ simple path’.

Amazing compilation of money stories

I appreciated the variety of stories and perspectives. I’m so glad JL included international views that were enlightening for me to hear. It speaks to the global impact he’s had with his simple approach.

The real life stories

It’s good to hear of all the different people that started from scratch to achieve financial independence. I’m starting from square one currently and this gives me confidence.

Amazing listen

This book is amazing. A perfect addition to the story of FI. Hearing about others on the path is just the fuel i needed to keep pushing myself.

Not nearly as good as the first book

The voice actors chosen were really hard to listen to. The constant changing of characters and attempts at random accents (only a few slips and probably not intentional) we’re super distracting.

The concept is great; real world examples of people who followed the path but I could have used my credit elsewhere

Inspirational stories!

A well organized book full of great stories. The only improvement that could have been made would have been to have JL read it himself!

Mostly stores without real financial advice

If you are looking for a book for specific financial advice, this isn’t the book for you. Instead read The simple path to wealth. I read this one thinking he would have updated information or advice from his previous book mentioned above, and it was mainly a collection of people’s stories from different walks of life trying to walk the simple path. Most don’t give specific information, only generalizations. Good book but not what I was going for.
