Del Walmsley emphasizes the importance of teaching children financial literacy and entrepreneurial thinking from an early age to set them on a path toward financial freedom. Illustrating how he applied this principle in his own life, he shares a personal story about guiding his daughter into real estate at the age of 16. With his support, she was able to invest in a property, capture $50,000 in equity, and begin earning $250 in monthly cash flow. Del underscores that financial education must begin at home, as schools and colleges typically fail to provide the essential knowledge and skills required for building wealth.

Del Walmsley hosts Josh and Victoria, who share their real estate journey from passives to Lead investors. Josh, initially starting flipping houses at 19, while working as a firefighter, but the 2008 recession left him with unsellable properties, highlighting the need for a more structured approach. Their introduction to Lifestyles Unlimited came when a colleague shared his success, prompting them to attend a two-day seminar. Since joining, they have invested passively in seven deals before becoming Lead investors in 2021. Despite their growing portfolio, they maintain a hands-on approach, with Josh frequently traveling between Texas and Cincinnati to manage their investments, all while focusing on enjoying more time with family, friends, and traveling.

Del Walmsley emphasizes that most Americans rely on speculation—such as hoping for home appreciation or stock market gains—for retirement, rather than generating real income. He explains that real estate offers a better path by providing monthly cash flow and the ability to capture equity. Del contrasts the low returns of traditional accounts like 401(k)s with the higher returns possible through real estate investing. He encourages listeners to break free from the conventional retirement mindset and take control of their financial future. Real estate, he argues, is a practical and proven way to achieve lasting financial freedom.

His trip reignited the realization that even after reaching early retirement and financial freedom, greater levels of wealth, purpose, and freedom remain attainable. Del highlights how passive income enables people to escape survival mode, redefine their work on their own terms, and embrace a lifestyle built on choice, flexibility, and fulfillment.
