The final session of Rebel Finance School 2026 isn’t a lecture. It’s a conversation about what comes after — what life actually looks like once you’ve done the maths, built the plan, and realised you might not need as much as you thought.

Alan and Katie Donegan are joined by Mr Money Mustache — Pete Adeney — who retired in 2005 at age 30 and has spent the years since writing, building things, and raising a family. His blog post “The Shockingly Simple Math of Early Retirement” helped spark the modern financial independence movement, and his take on living a frugal, deliberate, and genuinely enjoyable life has shaped how a generation thinks about enough.

This session is about freedom, frugality, and what it means to design a life you don’t need to retire from. If you’ve followed the course from Week 1, this is your landing. Enjoy it.
