The Journey to Simple Passive Cashflow: Real Estate Investing for the Working Professional

De: Lane Kawaoka

Narrado por: Lane Kawaoka

All too often hard working people with good jobs are struggling to get by.

These are the same people who are forced to take stressful promotions at work and spend a couple hours commuting each day. They come home to the house they think they own, but they are really just a slave to the mortgage company.

These “good citizens” are victims of an engineered system to keep them investing in 401Ks, mutual funds, and stocks.

This financial system is setup where the insiders are stealing the majority of your returns (and you take all the risk).

The truth is the wealth who are investing in alternative assets and operating off a different financial framework and not using these traditional options from a financial planner, commission-based broker, or the retail 401k/mutual fund/stock route.

Lane Kawaoka has been investing in real estate for over a decade and now controls 7,500+ units (1$ Billion plus in assets). Lane is responsible for finding, analyzing, and marketing real estate investment opportunities.

It's likely not the journey you’d expect, and it's also more simple than you’d expect. Welcome to The Journey to Simple Passive Cashflow!

A must listen for those seeking financial freedom

I have always thought the "traditional" way of investing (ex: max out 401k, IRA, index funds, 529, etc.) was my path to financial freedom. But as I got to know high net worth folks, they don't follow the traditional path. They invest in alternatives, such as private placements, whole-life insurance, businesses, etc. I've always wanted to learn how these people accelerate their net worth much faster than the normal, hard-working professional. So, it's very refreshing to listen to Lane's audiobook on his journey to financial independence. It covers the different stages of his working career and how (and why) he "leveled up" his investments in order to become free from relying on W-2 income. This is good audiobook to quickly listen to and create a general foundation of what can be obtained through alternative investing. Lane inspires me to seek more info beyond the audiobook so I can further learn/network from others who share the same goals. I know I am almost there, but there is always more to learn, room for improvement, and new ways to continually grow. I highly recommend a listen to spark that curiosity on how freedom can be achieved much sooner than you can ever imagine!

Not for blue collar folks

The reading seemed a bit labored. More importantly it clearly is not meant for median to low income folks looking to get into the business. I guess I'll take a loss on this one.

Ads instead of education

Luckily, I got this book for free using audibles free trial. Beginning investor here, trying to enter into real estate investing through any and every means necessary. This book had very few informational/advice aspects compared to the repetitiveness of advertising his website, simplepassivecashflow.com. In that aspect, I feel it really drowned out his story and the goal to educate the reader more about simple passive cashflow. I have not checked out the website yet but I plan on it and will update the review on whether the website is any good.

Not worth the price or read

It does nothing but tell a story and leaves 90% of the population out. He talks about high networth people and tell you to do very little work. very unrealistic for someone trying to become a passive investor
