I’m Making a Good Income……Now What?

I remember hitting my first “Now What” milestone and thinking to myself, “Ok, I’ve heard I need to start investing 15% of my income. So…..how do I do that?” I read a few books, googled “investing” on the Internet, asked my dad for his advice and then did what everyone else does…..found a financial advisor who opened a Roth IRA for me and started contributing every month to the stock market in the hopes that it would magically turn into millions of dollars by the time I retire.

Now, I don’t know about you, but I’m not good at hoping and wishing. Yes, I see my quarterly Mutual Funds report and think, “Sure, it’s growing, but not very fast. I suppose I need to keep waiting.”

I. Hate. Waiting.

Also, what am I waiting for? Retirement? What is retirement anyway? I’m not sure if I even like the idea of retirement. Pretty sure I’d rather not wait to spend a month hiking the Appalachian trail, or riding elephants in Thailand, or eating chocolate as I ski in the Swiss Alps.

May I suggest another path? The path less traveled?

Investing passively in real estate is a much safer vehicle than investing passively in the stock market and it produces higher returns. And apartment buildings are the best asset class out there because of the strong demand.
