Biesinger FIRE Journey2025-02-128 min

Greetings from the Biesingers! We are so happy you are here! We are a family of four sharing our financial freedom (FIRE) journey, including tips on how to build wealth, retire early, and retire abroad. At age 21, we purchased our first real estate property and then became first-time landlords at age 22 as college students. We worked extremely hard to pay off my student debt. Doing so helped me graduate with my MBA completely student-debt-free! We have other diversified investments and are excited to share more with you in our channel. We have now hit Coast FIRE, allowing us to move abroad and semi-retire in Asia! When making your personal finance and retirement decisions, we highly recommend researching multiple sources and/or receiving advice from a licensed professional. Also, if you are looking to retire abroad, please visit the place you desire to retire first to have a feel of whether it is a good fit. Everyone's lifestyles and preferences will vary.
