Financial Independence (FIRE) Meetup Group

Ready to begin your path to financial freedom? Let’s talk FIRE in Gràcia!

Whether you are already calculating your savings rate every month or you literally just heard the term FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) yesterday, this meetup is for you.
This is a relaxed, judgment-free space to meet local, like-minded people who would like either get started, keep going, or share with others how you accomplished it.

The Plan
We are keeping it simple, social, and collaborative:

• The who, what and why: An introduction to the general concept of FIRE and how it transforms lives.
• The Roundtable: A quick round of introductions where everyone can share one financial goal or one big question they have.
• Open Chat: Group talk on the goals and questions and then split into smaller groups, and chat about everything from index funds and budgeting hacks to lifestyle design and early retirement dreams.
• Wrap Up: Review take away points and any actions we want to take next in our own lives.

Location & Logistics

• Where: Caffé Milano - A nice cafe near Plaza Lesseps
• When: Wednesday, July 29th at 7pm.
• Cost: Free to attend (please just buy a drink or snack to support our host venue!).

Who is this for?

• Beginners: You want to save more, invest smarter, and figure out how thing FIRE thing actually works.
• On the Journey: You’re actively investing, tracking your net worth, and want to swap strategies.
• FIRE’d: You’ve already achieved independence and want to mentor others or share your experience.

About the organizer:

My name is Andrew, I'm American and have lived in Barcelona for nearly 10 years. I have been on the FIRE journey for many years (though not retired yet) and am eager to collaborate with others that either are just starting, mid-journey or veterans. I look forward to seeing everyone soon!
