The content was created in July 2024.
This is all hypothetical, but it's true. This was an alternate plan for us. If the white coat investor was not working out on a financial basis, we did have a plan to build a direct real estate investing empire, primarily multifamily and single family homes. That was the plan. What would I have done if I was building one? Well, first of all, I would have built it here. Properties that I could drive by and look at. I would have continued to max out retirement accounts, invested that money in index funds, as I did. How many doors would we have under management now? I don't know, 20, 30, something like that, probably. But this is a viable pathway to wealth. That's what I would have done. It's not a complicated formula, right? People have done this for centuries, right? It's real estate investing. You buy the property, you rent it out, you collect the rents, you pay all your expenses, you keep the cash. Afterward, the property appreciates. If you got a loan on it, you're paying down the mortgage, you get a few tax benefits. It's not complicated. There's nothing complicated about real estate investing. It takes some work.
