Thirty-years-old and unsatisfied with their lives, Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus decided to say goodbye to their corporate jobs and six-figure salaries.

Together they wrote a bestselling book, "Minimalism: Live a Meaningful Life," and pursued careers as public speakers, writing coaches and bloggers. Their blog, The Minimalists, now attracts an audience of more than two million annual readers.
