How to Purchase Commercial Real Estate and Retire Early

Let's be honest, most Americans have a sick relationship with work.

If your work is meaningful, you take pride in it, you do a great job for your clients or employer, and you are preparing for a great retirement for your family once it's time, congratulations, you are in the rare top 20%.

For everyone else, there are some crazy ideas out there...

When it comes to retirement, or at least changing a toxic relationship to employment, a popular subculture and philosophy is "Early Retirement Extreme".

If you haven't heard of it, there's a whole movement around getting your expenses below $40k a year (yes, even with a family), saving most of your income, and then "Retiring Early" in your 40s to enjoy life and family.

Some of the founders of the movement take pride in riding a bicycle around town, fixing up their own house, growing some of their own food, etc.

I have nothing against this in principle, except that I don't think it's realistic at all for most people.

What I'd rather have you do is own assets.

I don't believe in getting your bills down to next to nothing and then trying to convince yourselves you don't want more out of life.

I believe in deciding what you want, and then rather than taking cash to go spend on that thing, you take the cash, combine it with knowledge and focus, and you go acquire an asset that'll allow you to have that experience or thing in perpetuity for free.

Have a mortgage that prevents you from doing more with your cash each month? Get a Lifestyle Asset to pay for your mortgage.

Want to take more and longer vacations, but the time off of work plus the money spent on flights and hotels is too much? Get a Lifestyle Asset to pay for your travel, offset the lost income with passive income, and pay for your stay.

Believe in being frugal, but don't like fixing your own cars or always taking an older used vehicle into the shop? Get a Lifestyle Asset and let your guests (who love you for the experience you've offered and come back every year) to pay for your car payments.

You get the idea?

I love the Early Retirement Extreme folks - they are willing to get creative and get serious about what they really want. I just hate their methods ;).

I also hate retirement - I don't plan to stop any time soon, even though I've been functionally "retired" and financially free for years. That, to me, is the kind of relationship to work more people should earn.

I don't want to do less.
I don't want to have less.
I don't want to give less.

It is investing in Lifestyle Assets that let me to do, be, have, and give more.

If that's more of your style then riding a bicycle and growing your own beans in the backyard, book a call and let's get serious about your plan for vacation home investing.

Cheers,
