Jackie Cummings Koski has been a member of her local investment club for 11 years and is now on the board of directors — but when she first started out, she had little money to her name and no clear path to financial freedom.
“All of those things play into how hard it was in the very beginning,” she said. “Going from poverty to financially independent — that’s a path that most people I’m working with can get and connect with.” The early retiree pointed out that this wouldn’t be possible everywhere — she lives in Ohio, where home prices are not nearly as high as some major hubs like New York City or San Francisco — so her mortgage, taxes and insurance amounted to about $1,000 a month. Still, she was careful with her money. She’d buy a luxury vehicle, but one that was three to five years old and with a price tag half of what it was when it was new.
