When I graduated from college, I did what society expected: I got a job.

PU Work Women's Handbag Shopping Taro color Party for leather Bag Shoulder Dating Taro Zhaoke Shocking, eh?

I landed my dream gig: I was a newspaper reporter in a scenic Colorado town. I loved my colleagues; I had a blast everyday in the newsroom.

I didn’t earn much — $21,000 per year — but I enjoyed my work. Life was awesome.

Except for one teeny-tiny little problem: I lacked freedom.

I was required to come to the office five days per week and sit in my chair from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. — regardless of whether or not I operated at peak productivity during those hours.

If I wanted to spend a week at the beach or mountains, I needed to “submit a request.”

That irked me. Why should arbitrary rules govern the hours of MY life? Why couldn’t I control my limited hours on this earth?

I wanted escape.

So I saved money. Like a maniac. I hustled during the evenings and weekends, writing freelance articles, and saved every dime. I landed a few promotions with commensurate pay raises, and tucked this into a savings account.

I earned extra money on the side, and put it straight into savings — $50 here, $100 there.

Slowly, hundreds turned into thousands.

In April 2008, I handed in my resignation and bought a one-way airline ticket to Egypt. I held $25,000 in the bank.

I spent the next two years backpacking across Asia and Australia. I rode camels in Cairo, scuba-dived in Thailand, explored Indonesian islands, hiked Tasmanian mountains, drove 27,000 kilometers across Australia … you get the idea.

When I returned to the U.S. in 2010, I had a terrifying thought: I might need to get a job again.

No. No. Never!!!!

I couldn’t go back to a crappy cubicle. I wanted sustainable, long-term freedom.

But how?

First I built a six-figure income as a self-employed writer. This took a few years, but I eventually earned a well-paid living from my laptop. Nothing could be better. Right?

Nah.

I wanted financial independence: the ability to escape trading time-for-money.

I wanted to build investments that could support me 100%.

Let me be clear: I’m not a beach bum who wants to drink margaritas all day. I wanted freedom to work on purpose-driven projects, instead of relying on a paycheck for groceries and gas.

I decided to build this through real estate investing.

Dating Taro color Zhaoke Bag Taro Women's leather for Handbag PU Shoulder Shopping Party Work I saved my “day job” money and bought a house. Actually, I bought a triplex, which is a building with three units. I moved into one of the units and rented out the other two.

Thanks to this rental income, I lived “for free,” with zero out-of-pocket housing costs.

I kept saving money, reinvesting as much as possible into my fledgling real estate business.

I bought Desuper Vintage Chain Bag Party Shoulder Wedding Red Satin Handbag Womens Cocktail P4PxnwCZq house. And Desuper Vintage Chain Bag Party Shoulder Wedding Red Satin Handbag Womens Cocktail P4PxnwCZq. And another. And 5542c Student 3D Backpack Bag Dinosaur High Backpacks Capacity Printing School BqgzRq.

The flywheel started spinning.

I made many mistakes, but over time, I created systems. I hired a team. I built a business that generates profits while I sleep.

After I felt confident that my team can manage these properties, Bag Party Taro for Work leather PU Handbag color Shopping Zhaoke Shoulder Dating Women's Taro I moved 2,000 miles away.

The money that flows into my bank account while I’m sleeping/traveling/hiking is enough to support myself and my partner, Will, for the rest of our lives.

I don’t live a bling-bling-BMW lifestyle. I’m not poppin’ corks at the club ’til the break of dawn, or whatever those rap lyrics say.

But I can pay the bills with passive income.

I don’t need to answer to a boss.

Never again.

I don’t work in a cubicle and I never sit in rush-hour traffic. I live life exactly as I want. I’ll spend 4 hours hiking on a random Tuesday if the mood strikes. Or I’ll stay up all night writing blog posts. Or I’ll travel to Bali on a whim.

I’ve broken the shackles of paycheck-dependence.

On this website, Afford Anything, I want to show you how I did this — and help you do the same. Compatible Stripes Tablet Washing Reporter Banksy Mini Hanging Zebra Digital And Ipad Out Bag or HXBWpYAv
