How To Retire Young By Investing In Real Estate With Michael Quan - a podcast by Julie Lam, Annie Dickerson

from 2020-03-12T19:08:45

“Never value yourself by your net worth. You’re simply a steward of the money you earn during your lifetime.” A million dollars a year, or even a month, in cash flow means nothing if you don’t know what you’re making that money for. Today’s guest reached financial freedom at a relatively young age, and says that he did it all out of love for his family and a desire to inspire and mentor others.

Michael Quan blogs at FinanciallyAlert.com. Growing up in a middle-class Asian-American family, he decided that he would never suffer from a lack of time and money. Beyond that, he had a dream to live a life of abundance. 

A former IT professional, Michael decided he needed to become his own boss and look for a more stable, long-term solution for his finances, especially after a series of layoffs all around him following 9/11. Michael retired at the ripe old age of 36 and today, he enjoys the majority of his days as a stay-at-home dad. Not that he doesn’t work anymore. He still does—just on his own terms.
