Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode, I sit down with Thomas Brown, author of Uncommon Wealth for the Working Man, to discuss why so many people feel financially trapped, why the traditional “work 40 years and retire” path is breaking down, and how ordinary people can start reclaiming control of their time, money and future.Thomas shares his personal journey through divorce, financial hardship, discovering FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early), and eventually Bitcoin and how those experiences completely changed the way he viewed money, freedom and life itself.Need help doing self-custody properly and securely: https://bitcoinsuccessschool.comGet 5% off your MicroSeed:https://microseed.io/?ref=fin📘 Read Thomas’ book + follow his work: https://substack.com/@thomasbrown00Follow & Connect with meX (Twitter): https://x.com/FinCreightonInstagram: / fincreighton Subscribe: / @fincreighton
