Show Notes

Doug and Rox Duckels (FinanceRox) chat with Dusti Young about her two-and-a-half-year journey in retirement.  They dive into what happens when life throws unexpected financial & personal curveballs after leaving the traditional workforce – from rental property disasters and un-retiring to the fear of pressing the “sell” button on investments.  Dusti & Rox also share their perspectives on navigating the FI journey as single individuals, covering everything from dating challenges and awkward Hinge profiles to the unique pros & cons of pursuing FI solo.
