Great episode. It's so interesting how each person's perspective plays out. It's also interesting that even though I whole heartedly agreed with their thoughts, I would have had different answers for many of the questions. James hit it for a second but I wish the conversation would have elaborated on what could be the most integral connection between physical and fiscal health. Financial Independence requires a bit of will power. It's very much a mental game in the beginning as is physical fitness. FI to many is just a number and reaching that number and fitness is also commonly seen as reaching a goal weight or physique. The truth is that it's not at all about the goal but, like your panel said, making the life you love now the best it can be. Being physically fit, mentally fit, and emotionally fit lends itself to being financially fit. You're mindset is to better every aspect of your life and once you have the knowledge of budgeting, saving, etc, it all just falls in to place. Beca

I really enjoyed the first episode. I cringed when I heard all the challenges everyone experienced, but investing in real estate can be very rewarding too. Keep it up!
