Still in his early 40’s, Jim is ready and more than willing to take the leap into space because he wants to have a passive income stream by the time he’s in his late 50’s. He wants to take full control of his own time, where he will work only if he wants to, all the while collecting mailbox money.

We also believe that there is an efficient and effective way to jump into real estate, which will let the investors know if this space is really for them.
