Why We're Here
I don’t know about you, but I quickly grew tired of not having time for friends, family, fun… life!
So I hatched a plan to escape my 9 to 5 “sentence” early.
Once I discovered what worked (and what definitely did not!) I decided to share my roadmap with you…
Over the years, this roadmap has become known as Fire The Boss™. A “veritable compendium of financial wisdom” (a reader’s words, not mine) designed to be your one-stop time-saving and money-making resource.
Yes, it’s another financial independence blog. But hopefully it’s the most down-to-earth one you’ll find.
So what shall we talk about first?
About Money...
The thing that everyone wants more of, yet no-one talks about.
Maybe until recently you’ve been like most people (myself included):
- Afraid of admitting you don’t know nearly as much about your financial system as you should…
- Feeling like it’s too late (or too early) to reshape your financial perspectives, and your future...
These sorts of money worries are exactly what inspired me to create Fire The Boss™. But money isn’t everything…
About Time
The real reason you're here!
Contrary to the flashy ads invading your Facebook feed, financial independence is not about Lamborghinis, mansions and Rolexes.
Sure, those things might be nice… but the most coveted asset in the world is not money. Nope, not diamonds, nor bitcoin… it’s time.
Money is worthless without the time to spend it!
So you and I are simply going to use it as a tool. A tool with which to take control of our future…
Are you ready?
About Me
I'm Fraser, founder and author of Fire The Boss™.
You and I are going to escape the daily grind, together!
But who am I?
Well, as a medical physician I spent the better part of the Covid pandemic covered in personal protective equipment, navigating the chaos of an overwhelmed hospital ward.
Needless to say, things had certainly not gone to plan…
But let’s rewind to simpler times, when “Corona” was merely a brand of beer.
Blissfully ignorant of the years to come, I was living the laptop lifestyle. Having left the medical world behind, I ran several successful businesses and intended on travelling the world.
Unfortunately as we know, the world had other plans.
I dutifully dusted off my stethoscope, dug out the white coat and joined my old colleagues on the front line. But this left me with a conundrum…
What about my business?
Due to ambition and distractibility, I had simultaneously launched Amazon, print on demand, influencer marketing and e-commerce businesses. I had also taken a deep dive into the investments rabbit hole.
Clearly I couldn’t maintain this whilst roaming the hospital.
Thus started my exploration of passive income.
I learned to automate certain tasks and delegate others to virtual assistants. Any businesses not amenable to passive management were sold (most making multiple 5-figure profits).
Don’t get me wrong, this was not easy. Mistakes were made. But once the pandemic hysteria began to settle, I recognized the business acumen I’d gained over the past 15 years of making money online.
I also realized that my methods of passive money making were not just reproducible, they were probably teachable.
I therefore created Fire The Boss™ to be a free personal finance resource and your guide to financial independence.
Join me in my entrepreneurial (mis)adventures and forge your own route to financial freedom.

FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE
Earning more, spending less, investing the difference. Eventually this builds you a perpetual money making machine and the ability to finally tell your boss what you really think of them.
