Eindhoven Financial Independence

If you were financially Independent tomorrow, what would you actually do?

Many people in the FIRE community fall into a trap: optimizing savings rates and hitting financial targets without ever defining what they're actually saving for. This meetup is about flipping that approach.

What we'll explore:
* The critical question most FIRE seekers avoid asking themselves
* Why "financial independence" is a tool, not a just a trophy
* How to identify your personal values (not what others expect of you)
* Turning your values into concrete long-term and short-term goals
* Avoiding the empty retirement trap
What you'll walk away with:
* Clarity on your "Good Life" — what you actually want your time and energy spent on
* Practical worksheets to define your values, abstract goals, and measurable targets
* A framework for making financial decisions that align with what truly matters to you

The Netherlands is quietly rewriting the rules of wealth accumulation.
From 2028, Box 3 will tax actual returns — including unrealised gains. At the same time, Box 2 and BV structures continue to offer deferral, control over timing, and structural flexibility.

This session cuts through assumptions and folklore to answer one question:

> Where should your assets live if your goal is long-term accumulation?

We’ll compare Box 2 and Box 3 not on headlines, but on:

• compounding over time
• liquidity vs deferral
• leverage and loans
• real-world cash-flow constraints

Using concrete scenarios, we’ll show when a BV helps and when it doesn’t.

No hype. No loopholes. Just mechanics, incentives, and consequences.
