  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Fit Rich Life Podcast. A show all about mastering Money, Fitness & Life. In today’s special guest episode, I talk with the anonymous blogger behind A Purple Life. Purple has not been working since October 2020, when she retired early at the age of 30 with $500,000 saved and invested. She’s been anonymously blogging since 2018 about her financial independence journey sharing all the juicy financial details of her saving, spending, investing, lifestyle, travel and more. During this episode, we dig into a lot of the real numbers, including Purple’s salary and spending over the years, along with her investment portfolio, travel, and a whole lot more. Tune into a wide-ranging conversation to inspire you on your own Financial Independence Journey to Early Retirement.
