#133: Andy from Michigan loved the episode with charity:water founder Scott Harrison. After the episode, he and his 6-year-old daughter started watching videos about charity:water, and now they're both inspired to give.
Andy's question is on the topic of giving. His is to reach financial independence within 5 to 10 years. He and his wife are debt-free, including mortgage-free, and their retirement accounts are well-fueled. Now they're working on building passive income. In the meantime, though, they'd like to add a bigger charitable slice to their budget. He's not an overly religious guy, but he feels a calling to make more charitable donations than he does. What advice could we offer about how to boost his giving?
JR's wife, before they got married, purchased two timeshares at a 17.9 percent interest rate. When the couple met, and she confessed, they immediately paid off the debt.

What type of long-term care insurance do they need?

Ines from Portugal wants to start a podcast about financial independence, early retirement and real estate investing, specifically for people who live in Europe.
