Today on the podcast, we’re joined by Pete Wargent—investor, author, market analyst, and one of Australia’s earliest FIRE pioneers. Originally from the UK, Pete reached financial independence by age 33 after building a portfolio of shares and property across both Australia and the UK.
Since then, he’s written multiple best-selling books, launched a property buying business, and become a trusted voice on investing, markets, and wealth creation.

- Pete’s journey to FI and what helped him get there (00:05:26)
- The role of personality, passion projects, kids, and travel (00:09:58)
- Some of the biggest challenges people face on the path to financial freedom (00:22:41)
- Why there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to financial independence (00:28:03)
- What’s changed in the FIRE space over the past 20 years (00:48:53)
