Are you relying only on budgeting to build wealth? Think again. In episode 6 of The FI Crash Course, we dive into the power of income growth as a key driver of financial independence. Whether you’re in a W-2 job, exploring entrepreneurship, or curious about side hustles, this episode is packed with actionable strategies to help you earn more, work smarter, and make your money work for you.
Learn why negotiating your salary, documenting your wins, and networking aren’t just nice-to-haves—they’re essential tools for long-term financial success. Chris and Dom break down practical methods to identify side hustle opportunities, embrace emerging skills (even AI!), and evaluate your market worth. Plus, they share tips on overcoming the friction in everyday life to uncover hidden income streams.
