Paula Pant Quit Her Job with $25K (Now She’s FI in NYC)

Paula quit her $32,000 job in 2008—before she’d ever heard of the FIRE movement—with just $25,000 saved to travel the world. When she came back, she started freelancing and made a pivotal decision: buying a triplex and house hacking. That one move changed everything. Today, she’s fully financially independent in New York City through real estate—all without ever earning more than $32K at her day job. In this episode, we break down how she did it, the risks she took early on, and the strategy that turned a modest income into long-term financial freedom.
