Episode 40: Welcome to the She Builds Show, I'm your host, Stefanie Olson. Today, I want to talk to you about passive income. When I was younger and running flip jobs, my main goal was just to make money, save it, and be able to get away from using private money and be able to use my own money to flip the house. I didn't think about keeping any of the homes, I was remodeling, I just wanted to make sure the bottom line worked and I was able to get away with a profit. As the market changed and I got into building, I really had the same goal, buy the land, build it, and sale the house. I never had a regular job or a 401k from my employer, so quite a few years ago, I did start a self-directed 401K where I could use the funds for investments I chose. I've never been a big fan of the Star Market annuities or any other standard ways the world views you should invest. And my dad kind of taught me early on to think outside of the box. And so now that I'm getting older and closer to 40, I'm really feeling the sense that I need to prepare for retirement. So my goals have changed, they've shifted. My mindset has moved, I want to gather as much passive income as possible. This is what I'm doing now...
