Yesterday was an important day in my work, the third Friday of the month is the expiry date for some of the options that I trade to make our income as we travel. Having decided that we didn’t want to entrust someone else to manage our money and ultimately grow our retirement savings, I needed to find a way to take action. On June 6th, 2019, my 40th birthday, I flew down to San Diego to attend the seminar, and have since been taking the course. Since the sale of our house closed at the end of November, we’ve averaged over 40% annualized return, quite a bit over our goal of 25% per year. It’s validating to see the plan working, and I’m extremely grateful to Erin both for her hard work in creating our little pot of gold and also in entrusting me to manage it. I’m also grateful that learning this skill enables us to travel with an indefinite time horizon.
