Whilst having money is certainly no guarantee of happiness, poverty is sure to make you miserable, and no one knows this better than Kristy, who has seen both ends of the wealth spectrum. Despite growing up in poverty and, at one point, living with her family on 44 cents a day, Kristy Shen, along with her husband Bryce Leung, went on to become self made millionaires at the ripe old age of 31 and 32, going on to retire only a few years later. Kristy and Bryce are the authors of the book ‘Quit Like a Millionaire’ and having reached FIRE in their early 30’s, are now enjoying travelling, writing and helping others!
