Today on The Wealthy Wellthy Podcast I interview Eric Brotman. Eric is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP\\xae), Accredited Estate Planner (AEP\\xae), Certified Private Wealth Advisor (CPWA\\xae) and the CEO of BFG Financial Advisors, an independent firm assisting clients with wealth creation, preservation, and distribution. He is also the host of the \\u201cDon\\u2019t Retire\\u2026 Graduate!\\u201d podcast, a show dedicated to teaching listeners how to advance into retirement rather than retreating into it.

In this conversation, Eric and I cover wealth and financial planning on many fronts. We talked about how to prevent yourself from outliving your money, what steps should be taken at each phase of life to lead to financial independence.\\xa0 We share similar views on income and wealth, one does not equal the other. Eric shares that debt is the number one impediment on financial independence and how wealth is not as reliant on math as it is on financial literacy. Are you looking to retire (graduate) early? Eric and I discuss the F.I.R.E. methodology, which stands for Financial Independence Retire Early, and that achieving financial independence doesn\\u2019t require being \\u201cgood with numbers.\\u201d It\\u2019s never too early (or late) to start planning your financial future, so if you\\u2019re ready to start building your freedom plan, you\\u2019ll want to check out this episode.
