Three rentals, three years of hustle, $108,000 in passive income by age 67, and over $3.7 million

in wealth.

In this case study, I'll show you how a couple used one short sprint in their early 30s

to have 30 years of flexibility and freedom.

No flipping, no empires, just a simple, repeatable path.

Hey there, if we haven't met yet, my name is Chad Carson.

You can also call me Coach Carson, and in this show and this YouTube channel, I teach you how to use real estate investing to achieve financial freedom so you can spend your time doing more of what matters. So I want to tell you a story or a case study about a couple who earns $180,000 per year, But they heard an episode that I had not too long ago about

a concept called Coast Financial Independence, Coast Phi.

And it's an alternative to the traditional idea of retiring early where instead of like

pushing really hard for 10 or 15 years and kind of grinding it out during the best years

of your life, they're in their early 30s.

Instead, they might work really hard

for a few years to build up a nest egg and then coast for many decades and let that nest egg

into a much bigger nest egg that could support them in retirement. So the idea is, hey, I'm going to

work at this job that I don't really love right now. They both have good careers, but it's not that

inspiring. If they could wave their magic wand, one of them might be coaching high school sports

and teaching high school, teaching financial literacy to high school students, doing something that's

really matters to him and it's really inspiring. She has some creative outlets and some non-profits

that she really wants to work in. They could both do these things and they would just make a lot less money. They feel like it would sacrifice their future if they did that. And so could they have a plan to work intensively for a few years in order to then be able to make that switch even if they make less money and not worry about it because their future is taken care of financially? Let's see if we can put that together. So during those few years, they're living very frugally, saving a lot of money. They own their own home, but it's a simple home. And because they're living frugally, they can save about $90,000 per year to invest in their real estate. They also have a home equity line of credit and they're able to scrounge up some money to buy a piece of land. So they're in my rental property mastery. They've learned how you can find and go out and find interesting properties that have the ability to change something and make a little bit more money with it. And in particular, they noticed a deal very similar to one I just bought, actually. So these numbers are very real. I recognize all these numbers. They bought a piece of land. They had had an old house on it and it was kind of like a double lot has some extra land on it

but they studied their zoning and they realized that if they applied with the city they could

actually get three lots out of these what looked like two lots so that was the that was the value ad

that's how they unlocked some value in that and they realized this old
