- In the 1970's, a woman named Vicki Robin teamed up with a man named Joe Dominguez.
They came from different backgrounds: she was an Ivy League graduate with a comfortable upbringing; he was raised in Spanish Harlem on "welfare cheese."
But they shared one common thread: a commitment to financial independence, not just as a money management strategy, but as a philosophy on life.
Vicki and Joe became partners in both work and life. They united over a definition of "FI" that expanded beyond paying your bills through your savings and investments. They saw FI as a lifestyle that exists in three dimensions:
1: Financial Intelligence -- Your ability to think about money in an objective, unbiased and non-emotional manner.
2: Financial Integrity -- Your ability to earn and spend in a manner that's consistent with your values, and to stay aware of the impact of your earning/spending choices on yourself, your family and your planet.
3: Financial Independence -- Your ability to break the shackles of paycheck dependence, and ALSO your ability to declare independence from limiting beliefs, fears, and the perception that money will solve your problems.
In 1992, Vicki and Joe co-authored a book called Your Money or Your Life, outlining the FI philosophy. Their book became a mega-bestseller, selling more than one million copies. It landed on the New York Times bestseller list and spent more than 5 years on the BusinessWeek bestseller list.
Oprah Winfrey said: "This is a wonderful book. It can really change your life."
Vicki and Joe devoted the next five years to spreading the message of FI. They appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Good Morning America, and NPR. They were written about in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, People Magazine, and Newsweek.
Joe passed away in 1997, and Vicki continued spreading the FI message for another five years, before her cancer diagnosis caused her to take a step back.
Today, Vicki is 72, healthy, and still spreading the FI message. And she'd like to discuss a fourth dimension to FI:
4: Financial Interdepedence -- Your ability to live within a flow of giving and receiving. Interdependence comes from our relationship with our communities, our nation, and the natural world.
In today's podcast episode, Vicki discusses how we can move from financial independence to financial interdependence.

Paula, I have been listening to your podcasts for a few months (binge-listening on a daily basis for a few weeks now) and I have to say that this episode was one of my favourites! It was so refreshing for me to hear Vicki's perspective. I live in Canada now, but I was born in Poland and immigrated here with my parents when I was 2.5 years old. My parents separated, my father passed away, and it has been just my mom and I ever since. I always thought I'd end up completely alone in my old age, since I don't have kids, I won't have any grandkids, and I'm an only child. It gives me hope and inspiration that Vicki is living with so much purpose and connection, despite not having close family around. There were so many good take-aways in this episode. Thinking about financial INTERdependence doesn't feel so scary. There is much more I could say but I'll leave it at that. Big thank you!
Thank you both soo much for this message!! You definitely have a very soothing and loving voice which makes me much more open to receiving!!
Wow! Super excellent pod cast. The comcept of financial interdependence is one of the most acute one I have ever hear about.
The feeling we don't need help and the fact that your FI happiness depends on your ability to develop social relationships in your community is so paramount.
I am so touched by this interview! My mouth stood open, when you were asking about the cat. I knew, god or life was speaking to me, when Vicki was responding, as I am having a sick cat and I dont know, how I could ever let her go. I am courious about the little book she read about passing animals? I could not find it.. Anyway, thank your for the great content full of wisdom, warmth and beauty! Greetings from Austria 🤗❤️
What a wisdom packed podcast Paula ..I have been following you for quite a while and I must say you never never fail to mesmerize me with your knowledge...your money or life has definitely changed my life for bliss...can't thank you enough Vicki...
So true about community and wealth . Enhancing your community and better it for tomorrow is essential for a better state , country and world .
She's so awesome and brings up incredible insights! Thanks for reaching out to Vicki! :-)
Thank you for this interview! I just found your YT channel and podcast today. This was a truly inspirational and awakening conversation.
Wow. Loving the focus on human relational wealth. Seems so many people are like $$$$$$$$, though who w really thinks about the twilight years? Loving it! Thanks!!!
One of the best FIRE interviews I’ve heard
Amazing podcast! I just retired and this conversation was perfect for me.
Paula Pant interviews very well...drills nicely...
Thank you!
Facing Future will continue Stuart Scott’s work. Facing Future welcomes comments. Please be concise. Ultra long comments will be deleted.
Best interview, thanks!
Very nice chat. Timely.
What "place" was she talking about
These commercial breaks suck. Don‘t you earn enough money from your real estate?
Cand. med. Silke Rosenbusch she just wants even more money? It's never "enough" for some ppl
I lost happiness of helping my family though. I dont seems to get any satisfaction of giving them financial aid. As ive been doing it since i was on my 20s and i am now 45 and i didnt see any changes in their life and i feel like a failure instead...
JustNanette 😢 Does aiding feel like enabling?
What is FI
