483: Lean FI in 6 Years, Fat FI in 10, and Quitting Your Job The FIRE Way: At twenty-nine years old, Andy Johnson had achieved lean FIRE. He had enough to survive but not enough to make his future family comfortably financially free. All he needed to do was work a little longer, make a bit more money, and intensely invest. That plan went out the window when Andy woke up one day, unable to return to work. The high levels of stress and constant demand from clients got to him. He quit his high-paying job with no plan. Over the next year, Andy did something incredible. Even without a steady paycheck, he built a massive real estate portfolio in just ten months, bolstered his family’s investments, and now, a few years later, in his mid-thirties, hasachieved true financial independence. How did he do it in such a short amount of time WITHOUT a job? His method is one only the savviest of investors would have thought of.
