25. I moved to Southern California to SAVE money... With Dr. Brenda Uekert Oct 08, 2024

Show notes

I met Dr. Uekert in a pretty unique way, you'll have to hit play to get the full story.

Dr. Brenda has her hands in a few different things from travel, speaking, being an author and more. She shares her journey, her "Dream, Plan, Save, and Do" thought process, and much more!

Her geo-arbitrage story is incredibly unique to anything I've ever heard, and she's even shifted to align her investing with her direct values in recent months.

22. Everything I Missed & POST Sabbatical Current Events! Sep 17, 2024

Show notes

Every 5th episode I give some current events on what's happening in my life, and this week its all about this gap in between the end of our travel, and up to the point of me getting back to work after a 90 day sabbatical!

Additionally after listening back to the trailing 4 episodes I drop some thoughts that I thought needed clarification, elaboration, additional thoughts or quotes that came to mind while reviewing the trailing four episodes.

Show notes

Today we are reviewing a short term rental property that Mallorie and her husband bought in 2021 during peak travel times to a very desirable tourist destination. We review and break down why it was purchased, what they love about it, how the expenses are going, and what its future potential could be.

In addition, we cover some real estate basics and return on investment expectations from a high level for Short Term, Mid Term, and more traditional long term rental properties.

20. Someone would be ecstatic to be where you are right now! Sep 03, 2024

Show notes

In this episode I expand on the middle part of the FI Journey, or even in some cases the early part of the Journey.

This is often referred to in the FI community as:

-The Boring Middle

-The Slog

-The Grind

-The Muddled Middle

The goal of this episode is to reframe that thinking, and express gratitude for where we are at today, while aspiring towards what is next.

16. Don't panic in this market... How the little things influence future & bigger decision making. Aug 06, 2024

Show notes

This week the stock market went a little crazy, so I wanted to address that, what to expect and more importantly how to think through how you feel about market fluctuation today to ensure you are better prepared for the future when there are other drops and any time you might have larger sums to invest all at once.
