In this episode of The Rodney Bull Show my guest is Chris Miles, who retired twice before the age of 39 by focusing on income-producing assets instead of traditional “save and hope” strategies.  He and I have a good yarn about how and why cash flow and passive income matters more than chasing stock market growth or relying on retirement accounts. We also have a talk about alternative investments like private lending, self-storage and infinite banking, as well as covering the mindset shifts required to become financially free.
