So we’re trying something completely new for our episode today: we’re hearing from a listener. Not in the form of a question submitted via voice memo, but we’re actually sitting down and having a ‘real money’ conversation, with Nick Gangwer. We met Nick at a listener hang about a year ago and his personal story and the proactive steps that he had taken to completely change his trajectory in life was incredibly inspirational to us as personal finance creators. And then more recently we realized that his story could be incredibly motivational to the broader HTM community of money nerds as well. So have a listen as we discuss growing up in a trailer park, scholarships to pay for college, saying ‘yes’ to every opportunity, buying a house in undergrad and house hacking, FIRE goals and much more!
