I think I finally woke up! I listened to Curtis DeYoung, President of American Pension Services and realized my belief about retirement was way off base.
Let me recap what I learned. The American Dream isn't really about owning your own home, it's about learning how to live free from outside sources. My life up to this point consisted of living off government rules and regulations. I was a W2 employee, I gave permission to take money out of my paycheck to build my 401K excited the company would match my contribution. In reality, I was giving others control of my time and money all because I didn't know any different.
It's my money, it's time I took it back!!! Now how do I do that? I understand now, I work not only to put food on the table and pay my expenses but to "buy" retirement income. I'm the only one that really cares about me, I'm the only one really going to take my retirement seriously.
I buy real estate to leverage my retirement income. How cool is that??? I can work less and earn more ... building my retirement exponentially, tax FREE!!!
