Michael Quan is a personal finance coach, blogger, and speaker based in San Diego, California. He's on a mission to spread financial literacy and wealth creation strategies to all who seek it. Michael achieved F.I.R.E. (Financial Independence, Retirement Early) at the age of 36 through a combination of saving and investing, entrepreneurship, and real estate investing. He has been featured in media outlets such as Business Insider, MarketWatch, Yahoo Finance, The Huffington Post, and more. When not helping others, he enjoys spending time with his wife and two children. He is an avid fisherman, world traveler, foodie, and tech junkie. Fun Fact: As a young child, he almost burned his house down - not once, not twice, but three times! So it's a bit ironic his first book is all about "FIRE".
