Kristy Shen grew up in abject poverty in rural China where her family lived on $0.44 per day. Chronic hunger and worm-infested drinking water were regular parts of her youth.
Her husband, Bryce Leung, is also a first-generation Canadian, but from a more middle-class background. Early in their computer-programming careers, they committed themselves to frugality.
In their early 30s, with millions in the bank, they retired and now travel the world full-time. Kristy and Bryce are the co-founders of the financial independence blog, Millennial-Revolution.com, and co-authors of the book, "Quit Like a Millionaire: No Gimmicks, Luck or Trust Fund Required."
