Hi! My name is Gelson, project manager and an author on this website. This website has roots in my own personal experience, so let me share it with you.
I started working as an engineer in 2009 and achieved financial independence in 2017.
Since then, people have always asked me how they could do the same. So I decided to create this website to share my knowledge and experience.
Most people think that opening a company is the only way to achieve financial independence. While that is certainly possible, most people (who don't end up bankrupt) will just get stuck in a new / different rat race.
On this website, I share my experiences and knowledge to help you achieve an early retirement by just working as you already do. Yes, forget the risks of opening a company, dealing with employees, etc. This is not really retirement.
I also decided to have this website translated into many languages, but the ideas will focus on the US financial market. If this is not your first (or favorite) language, check out the language selection tool at the top of this page. Just beware that some of the concepts may have a different name in your country (or not exist at all!).
