Real estate has proven to be an excellent place to invest your money.
But where should you start in this competitive market? Rentals? Airbnbs?
Sam Dogen, also known as the Financial Samurai, joins us to share his thoughts!
Sam retired from his corporate career about 10 years ago. Real estate (among many other avenues) was a huge part of his financial independence success.
Also, Amy Greene from North Carolina, shares how she and her husband increased their family net worth to over $1 million by age 44!
Last, but not least, my son Calvin joins me for another “Good Word”. We discuss how a recent professional baseball game became national display of generosity and helping your fellow man.

GUEST BIO - Sam Dogen (Financial Samurai):
Sam Dogen is the mastermind behind FinancialSamurai.com, one of the largest independently-run personal finance sites with roughly one million organic visitors a month. He launched Financial Samurai in 2009 when the world was falling apart and his net worth was taking a beating. His inspiration was to help himself and others make sense of the chaos.
In 2012, he left his day job in finance at age 34 to be permanently free and pursue being a writer. He has lived in seven countries and has traveled to over 60 countries so far.
Since the financial crisis, more than 80 million visitors have stopped by FinancialSamurai.com to learn, share, and grow. In addition, Dogen’s work has been highlighted in major publications such as CNBC, MarketWatch, Forbes, The Consumerist, The Chicago Tribune, The Los Angeles Times, and many more.
Dogen is also known for The Financial Samurai Podcast and the one-of-a-kind eBook, How To Engineer Your Layoff, which teaches employees how to negotiate a severance package and be free.
When not writing or podcasting, Sam can often be found on the playground taking care of his two young children or on the softball field or tennis court.
