We also debate the pros and cons of traditional retirement planning versus active real estate investing. Is the "4% Rule" a path to freedom or just a way to ration your life away? Jake and Gino share their unique approach to multifamily investing, profit per unit (PPU), and why managing debt is the key to surviving market downturns.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Fiduciary vs. Non-Fiduciary: Why most advisors are like "Supercuts" employees pushing their own products, and how to find an independent fiduciary who works for you.
✅ The Problem with Traditional Retirement: Why the "4% Rule" feels like rationing your life and how active investing can offer more control.
✅ Multifamily Metrics: Jake and Gino explain their "Profit Per Unit" (PPU) metric and why cash flow is king over net worth.
✅ Debt Management: The critical importance of understanding debt terms in commercial real estate to avoid foreclosure during market shifts.
✅ The "Retire.us" Solution: How Michael is democratizing access to premium financial planning without high asset minimums.
