Achieving financial independence is something everyone strives for. There are many paths, but eventually most people’s goal is to get out of the rat race and do what they love doing with their time.  Chris Larsen is no exception. After achieving great success in business he took a new path to success. Now he’s the proud owner of an investment most people don’t even consider: car washes. This little considered investment is something he’s able to get into without competing with the major Wall Street money and create a niche for himself that generates substantial (relatively) passive income. Zach Lemaster and Adam Schroeder talk with Chris about his journey, how investing in car washes work, and how you actually run due diligence on an investment like this. www.NextLevelIncome.com www.HurricaneWash.com -------------------------------------------------------- Website - www.RentToRetirement.com YouTube - www.YouTube.com/RentToRetirement Current Hotlist Properties - www.RentToRetirement.com/Hotlist

There’s a difference between rent ready and retail ready, and knowing it will go a long way to making sure that you’re buying a rental property that’s going to make sense.

One of the ways we’ve seen many of our clients improve their financial situation (and be able to purchase a lot more real estate) is to utilize short term investments to grow their savings.

Eventually, however, you’ll need to convert that fast burning fuel into “slow burning fuel” like real estate that will help you continue getting cash flow, but not be taxed on it. Adam Schroeder and Zach Lemaster talk with two of Tardus’ top coaches about what exactly they do to help investors achieve their goals in the quickest amount of time.

Inflation has been rampant for at least the last year, with many believing that the worst is behind us and we’re on our way down.

David is a former two-term Congressman from Michigan and Director of the Office of Management and Budget under President Ronald Reagan; Bestselling author of The Great Deformation: The Corruption of Capitalism in America, Trumped! A Nation on the Brink of Ruin...
