The Decision to Retire Young

October 29th, 2007

It comes as a tragedy, I know. But I am finally going to go for my dream. I want to have time and money for the ministry of the gospel of Christ, and working a full time Just-Over-Broke will not allow me to do so. I have some steady income with rental properties, property management, a technical service contract, and a few websites, and am ready to step it up to the next level. I figure that I will have a short fall of somewhere around $500-1000 per month. I have some cash reserved, and can survive for at least a few months while trying to up my income.

I have always strove to own and operate my own business, or businesses. Multiple streams of income in different markets is a very attractive proposition. Lose one, you still have the others. I can remember as a young teen, I think I was maybe 15 or 16 years old, being introduced to the concept of your own business and the chance at financial freedom. It is time I try my hand. So on November 9th, 2007 I will end my job, and head out on my own.

I am an entrepreneur at heart, and welcome any ideas from the Personal Finance Resources user community. I know there are other real estate investors out there like me, and your ideas and opinions are invaluable.
