Eugenie Officer and her partner
Eugenie Officer, her horse Ketch, her dog Phyllis, and her partner.
  • Eugenie Officer and her partner are DINKs, a couple with double income and no kids.
  • She hopes to join the FIRE movement by attaining financial independence and retiring early.
  • Being a DINK has also meant a financial cushion during harder times.

When Eugenie Officer, 26, first began dating her now-spouse, the idea of becoming DINKs — a couple with dual incomes and no kids — came up early.
