We all would love to retire before the gray hair starts showing up. As you probably know, there’s no one path to retirement. Everyone’s plan is going to look different based on our various backgrounds, skillsets, experience, income levels, risk tolerance, familial status, lifestyle, ancillary goals, and the list goes on. I have always believed building streams of income is a far superior philosophy to building up a savings nest egg and hoping you don’t outlive it.

In this episode of Skyline Views, Army veteran Bryce Stclair shares his story of how he strategized and executed his plan to dive into real estate and create financial independence as efficiently and effectively as possible. He’s based in Tennessee, and gives helpful insights on what it’s like investing in those markets. There are a lot of good tips and insights in his story that we all can learn from.
