Financial Freedom in 10 Years or Less — Without Sacrificing Your Life Today

You're earning six figures in tech. You've maxed out your 401(k). But traditional retirement at 65? That's 20-30 years away. Learn how to apply FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) principles designed specifically for high-income professionals — and escape the 9-to-5 in a decade or less.

You're Playing the Long Game. But What If There's a Shortcut?

You've been told to save 15% of your income, max out your retirement accounts, and wait until 65 to enjoy life.

But here's what they don't tell you:

At your income level, you could achieve financial independence in 10 years or less — if you knew the right strategies.

While you're locked into the traditional retirement timeline, there's a community of high-earners who've cracked the code:

  • Building multiple income streams beyond their W-2.

  • Leveraging real estate for passive cash flow and tax advantages.

  • Using whole life insurance as a wealth-building tool (not just protection).

  • Creating investment portfolios that generate $100K+ annually in passive income.

They're not waiting until 65. And neither should you.

The problem? Most financial advisors won't teach you this. They profit from keeping your money locked up in traditional accounts until retirement age.

You deserve a faster path.

I Retired Early Using These Exact Strategies

I'm Lee Johnson, and I achieved financial independence years ahead of schedule — not by living on ramen or moving to Thailand, but by strategically optimizing my high income.

My background:

  • Reached Executive Director level overseeing $80M+ in business.

  • Built a real estate portfolio generating consistent passive income.

  • Leveraged whole life insurance products most financial advisors won't tell you about.

  • Retired early while maintaining the lifestyle I worked hard to build.

As a certified life coach with 250+ hours of coaching experience, I've helped hundreds of tech professionals through my work as an ERG Executive Director and on platforms like BetterUp and Pathwise.

I've walked this path. Now I'm showing other high-earners how to do the same.

The difference between me and most FIRE coaches? I did this while earning a tech salary just like yours. I understand your tax bracket, your benefits, your constraints, and most importantly — your opportunities.

FIRE to Freedom: Your 10-Year Financial Independence Blueprint

This isn't about extreme frugality or moving to a low-cost-of-living country. This is about intelligent wealth optimization for professionals earning $150K-$500K+ who want to retire decades early without sacrificing their quality of life.

In 12 weeks, you'll learn:

Your FIRE Number

Calculate exactly how much you need to retire early (it's probably less than you think).

Aggressive Savings Optimization

Push your savings rate to 40-60% without feeling deprived.

Real Estate Cash Flow Strategy

Build rental income that covers your living expenses.

Whole Life Insurance Hacks

Use infinite banking to become your own bank and build tax-free wealth.

The 4 Pillars of High-Income FIRE

PILLAR 1

Maximize Your W-2 Engine

Your tech salary is your wealth-building rocket fuel. Learn to negotiate aggressively, maximize RSUs and stock options, and leverage executive-level compensation packages.

PILLAR 2

Build Passive Income Streams

Real estate rentals, dividend portfolios, and whole life insurance create the cash flow that replaces your salary. You'll learn exactly how to deploy your capital for maximum passive returns.

PILLAR 3

Optimize Taxes Like the Wealthy

The rich don't pay 35% taxes, and neither should you. Master real estate depreciation, tax-loss harvesting, Roth conversions, and entity structuring to keep more of what you earn.

PILLAR 4

Design Your Freedom Life

Financial independence isn't about retirement — it's about options. Define what freedom means to you, then build the financial foundation to make it happen.

Your Life in 10 Years,If You Start Today

Year 3

You've purchased your first rental property. It cash flows $800/month. Your savings rate is now 55%. You've launched a side consulting practice bringing in $4K/month.

Year 5

You own 3 rental properties generating $2,500/month in passive income. Your investment portfolio has grown to $400K. Your side income has grown to $8K/month. You've been promoted and are earning $250K+ in your W-2.

Year 7

Your passive income streams are generating $5,000/month. Your portfolio has crossed $700K. You're having serious conversations about going part-time or taking a sabbatical.

Year 10

Your passive income covers 100% of your expenses. Your net worth has crossed $1.5M+. You hand in your resignation — not because you hate your job, but because you can.

You're 45 (or younger). You have decades of freedom ahead of you.

This is what's possible when you combine a high income with the right strategy.

What If?

"I don't want to live on rice and beans for 10 years."

You won't have to. This isn't about deprivation — it's about strategic optimization. You'll still travel, enjoy nice dinners, and live well. We're just eliminating waste and redirecting money toward assets.

"Isn't real estate risky?"

All investing involves risk. But at your income level, you can afford to diversify and invest strategically. I'll show you how to analyze deals, avoid common mistakes, and build a portfolio that generates consistent cash flow.

"What if the market crashes?"

We plan for it. Your FIRE strategy will include multiple income streams, conservative withdrawal rates, and strategies that have survived multiple recessions. You'll be more prepared than 99% of traditional retirees.

"Can I really retire in 10 years?"

If you're earning $200K+ and can save 50% of your income, absolutely. The math works. I've done it. My clients are doing it. The question is: are you willing to commit?

Starting your FIRE journey at 35 vs. 40 means retiring at 45 instead of 50. That's 5 extra years of freedom.

Starting at 40 vs. 45? You're adding 5 more years to your working life. The financial decisions you make in the next 12 weeks will determine whether you're working at 50 — or relaxing on a beach. The clock is ticking.

Financial Independence Isn't a DreamIt's a Decision

Path 1: Keep following the traditional advice. Max out your 401(k). Wait until 65. Hope it all works out. Spend 30 more years in meetings, on emails, hitting deadlines.

Path 2: Commit to the FIRE strategy. Optimize aggressively. Build passive income. Design your life around freedom. Retire in 10 years or less.

Most people choose Path 1 because it's easier. But you're not most people. You're the type of person who maximizes their 401(k) and HSA. Who builds a six-figure career through strategic thinking. Who's reading this page because you know there's a better way. You're ready for FIRE.

The only question is: Will you start today?

I only work with professionals serious about achieving financial independence.

If you show up to every session, implement the strategies we discuss, and don't have a clear 10-year roadmap to financial independence by the end of 12 weeks, I'll coach you for an additional 4 weeks at no charge. I can make this guarantee because I've seen hundreds of high-earners transform their financial futures using these exact principles. The question isn't whether this works.

The question is: are you ready to commit?
