For the first few years of our careers, our income had a pretty clear equation: the more we worked, the more we earned.
More shifts meant more income. Fewer shifts meant less. Even with good physician salaries, work still had a lot of say in what our lives could look like.
When we started earning income from real estate, that equation slowly began to change.
It wasn’t that we suddenly wanted to stop practicing medicine. We just started realizing that every financial goal didn’t have to require another shift.
As the portfolio grew, so did the space to ask a different question: how much do we actually want to work?
That was a much bigger change than we expected.
Real estate didn’t replace medicine. It just stopped medicine from having to carry everything.
Save this if you’re still in the stage where every financial goal seems to come with another shift attached.
