    Frequently Asked Questions

    How did Lance Morgan's dad retire at 57 with only $50,000 saved?
    His father was an accountant for a property management company and eventually took out a loan to invest alongside the firm in its real estate deals. He retired at 57 with about $50,000 in his retirement account, but with enough cash flow from those real estate investments to live on.
    What's the lesson for people saving for retirement?
    Cash flow, not account balance, is what funds a retirement. Lance watched a conservative, modest earner retire early on rental income while the retirement account itself stayed small.
