Episode 2211:
Kevin of Financial Panther explains how leaving his day job changed the way work fits into his life. He argues that most people give their best, most productive hours to an employer and squeeze everything else into what is left, while self-employment let him take back control of his schedule.

Quotes to ponder:
"Instead of your life fitting around your job, your job should fit around your life."
"The point of financial independence isn't about accumulating money. It's about getting back control of our lives."
"My job fits around my life, not the other way around."
