How This 24-Year-Old British Woman Made $97,000 with a Bizarre Daily Routine That’s Shocked Everyone!
Imagine a 24-year-old British woman who managed to amass $97,000, not through inheritance or the lottery, but by following a simple daily routine that, at first glance, seems…bizarre to say the least.
Mia McGrath, from Britain, set her sights on an astonishing goal: to retire before she turns 40. Her secret? Unusual frugality that begins with her first meal of the day. Every morning, Mia eats scrambled eggs on half a slice of bread for just 65 cents, and she tells her followers: “I eat a cheap breakfast every day so I can retire before 40.”
But the saving doesn’t stop at breakfast.
Mia lives with her parents to avoid paying rent, buys secondhand clothes, and forgoes small pleasures like coffee at a café or beauty salon services. She works in sales and supplements her income through content creation and modeling, investing around $1,900 a month in various projects, including the stock market. Her ultimate goal? Reaching $1.6 million, she achieved what she calls "financial freedom"a freedom that means at age 45 she won't have to ask her boss for time off, but will take it whenever she wants.
Her story has become an icon within a global movement (financial independence and early retirement), but it's not without controversy. Some critics warn: Is financial freedom worth sacrificing all the pleasures of youth? The controversial idea here: 65 cents for breakfast, strict discipline… in exchange for a completely controllable life.
