Bill Yount | Catching up to Financial Independence

In this episode, we sit down with Bill Yount, the Host and Creator of the Catching up To FI podcast. As an ER physician, Bill and his wife experienced a ‘wake up call’ in their late forties and early fifties. They were high earners, living in a big house, but with little to show for it and ill-prepared for retirement. Bill shares his remarkable journey of completely overhauling his life – from selling his house to moving across the country and adopting a more frugal lifestyle – all in pursuit of financial freedom. What sets this episode apart is Bill's candid discussion about his own feelings of shame regarding his lack of retirement preparation. He dispels the myth that high income equals financial intelligence and readiness. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of taking decisive action, staying consistent, and recognizing there is no quick-fix. If you've ever felt trapped by financial struggles, or thought it’s too late to make a change, this episode is for you. Bill's story and his podcast offer hope and practical insights for anyone seeking to break free from the cycle of financial insecurity and take control of their future. Tune in for inspiration and actionable steps towards your own journey to financial freedom.
