In this episode of The Retire Early Retire Now podcast, host Hunter Kelly, a certified financial planner, discusses the crucial importance of focusing on increasing income rather than obsessing over the rate of return on investments. Aimed at high-income professionals in their thirties and forties, the episode explores how to boost income through negotiating raises, learning new skills, and starting side gigs. Through real-life examples and actionable steps, Kelly shows how enhancing income can have a significantly larger impact on financial growth compared to achieving slightly higher investment returns.
