Why Traditional Investments Are Not Enough

The reason I'm here today is because I've invested on the side—just a couple thousand dollars in ETFs.

Like many, I also have a 401(k) through my company and a Roth IRA. But with the current climate in the world, I'm not confident that these traditional investments will be enough.

I’m thinking about providing not just for my future self, but for my family and even future generations.

What we teach at Real Estate Skills is that real estate is the most reliable way to create wealth.

And I’ve seen so many people who start from nothing and are able to not only make ends meet, but also build lasting wealth for the future.

How Real Estate Is the BEST Wealth-Building Tool

There aren't too many industries where you can both make an active income and reinvest that income back into the same industry to earn passive income.

With wholesaling and flipping real estate, you can make active income daily—finding deals, putting them under contract, wholesaling a house for quick capital, or fixing and flipping for larger profits.

As you do this, you're also learning what makes a good deal versus a bad one, which sets you up to invest in buy-and-hold rental properties that generate passive income.

The day-to-day work you're putting in compounds your wealth and your knowledge. That’s something many people miss.

In a traditional job outside of real estate, even if you work hard for 40 to 60 hours a week, you're not learning about wealth-building at the same rate you would in real estate.

That’s a decision I made at a young age: invest in learning while earning. And the benefits don’t stop there.

Rental properties not only generate passive income but also offer significant tax advantages. The wealthiest individuals in the world often own real estate, partly due to these tax benefits.

You can take depreciation on properties, and when you invest hundreds of thousands of dollars into assets like apartment or office buildings, many of those expenses become write-offs.

Some people are able to pay little or no taxes simply because they invest in real estate.

Wealth isn’t just about how much you make—it’s about how much you keep. Real estate gives you that advantage.

Another point: this is a physical, tangible asset. You can see it, touch it, and even live in it. If you own five rental properties and want to move into one, you can.

That’s not something you can do with ETFs or Bitcoin. Every person needs a roof over their head. That simple truth is part of what makes real estate so valuable.

Supply and Demand Dynamics in Housing

We’re seeing more babies being born in the U.S. and globally than there are houses being built. Basic economics tells us that when supply can’t keep up with demand, values will go up.

That’s part of why real estate is considered an appreciating asset. As the demand for housing increases, so does the value of your investment. This helps you beat inflation and build long-term wealth.

Financial Freedom Through Passive Income

At the end of the day, most of us are seeking freedom, particularly financial freedom.

One of the simplest ways to achieve this is by owning assets, such as real estate, that generate passive income.

That income doesn’t come from your job or your salary. It comes from your investments and flows in whether you’re working or not.

That monthly passive income can cover your expenses and liabilities. That’s the power of real estate.
