I’m a fellow slow traveler. I spent most of my time in SE Asia. I own 3 rental properties [in Memphis, I paid approx $100K each] with mortgages on all of them. I have a property manager that does a fantastic job. The revenue I get pays about half my expenses. I sold my home and put the proceeds in an index fund. The interest off the index funds pays the other half.

I’ve watched you guys for several years now. As a retired video production person I appreciate how you guys have continued to grow with your online presence. All aspects have improved. Maybe the biggest leap is attaining good audio. I think it would be fun to look back at your transition from beginners to present day. Good stuff.

I did motorcycle tours outside my hometown, we have a State forest there. It was quite by accident. People just wanted to ride, not get lost.

I have an accounting degree, had a career in financial software consulting and running a small biz, and in retirement I have a handful of clients I do bookkeeping and business advisory services for. It keeps my mind active. Now I am considering a YT channel on budget solo travel and early retirement. I am still playing with the idea. Grounded Life Finances kind of led me into it. But I do know there is a lot of work in the channel thing. I actually have clients that are content creators.

I started my own business reselling vintage clothes, accessories and home décor. I can do most of the work online but when I travel, I have someone pack and ship orders for me. I enjoy shopping and love being my own boss, working only when I want, and the extra income pays for all my travel. Best of all, I source new product inventory on my trips, so my travel expenses are also tax-deductible.

We live in a small Colorado mountain town for 4 months in the summer and RV camp host for a free place to stay. We do have a longtime business that we can do from anywhere (we work 10-20 hrs a week). But my GF has mixed in waiting tables for the summer and does quite well. I am pretty confident that if our business goes away we can both do that for 4 months and make enough to travel and live the other 8 months. I am not too proud to do that.

We are fortunate that we own 3 apartments that will be our main source of passive income when we begin slow traveling next year at the age of 52. We maintain a home warranty that covers repairs on pretty much anything for a small deductible amount. Our daughter lives in the area and she will be our "property manager" - being an HOA we don't need to worry about any of the maintenance to the outside but of course we do need to account for that HOA monthly fee. We do have non-retirement accounts to fund some unexpected events and also retirement accounts for when we reach 59 1/2 - We are also very fortunate to be debt free which I agree with you guys is key to the success of retiring early. We are not camera friendly people :) so doing videos may not work for us, we know our limitations and making friends is definitely not our strength, overtime our circle of friends and people we hang out with has shrunk to almost zero, most times is just just the two of us. I do consult a lot of people on their finances and at my job as a loan officer on mortgages etc. so there may be a way to profit from it as a consultant...Thanks for sharing, Cheers!

Can you do an updated video on camera/mic equipment, editing software, etc. Basically how you do videos? Your quality has gotten so much better within the last six months.

[dbostrander]

i met a retired expat in Cusco Peru where he would transport Americans/Canadians from/to the airport because a lot of tourists feel safer that way - he advertised on facebook etc. - i thought that was a good partime gig

[thecollegedean]
