Today on the BiggerPockets Money Podcast we will find out what happens when a retired military professional builds a massive real estate portfolio and then decides he wants his investments to work even HARDER while he works even LESS. Meet Beau, who achieved financial independence through a real estate heavy investment strategy.

In this Finance Friday episode, Beau opens up his entire financial playbook with Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench. We're talking rental properties generating serious cash flow, private lending deals that most investors don't even know exist, and tax strategies so advanced they'll make your accountant jealous. This isn't your typical "I bought a duplex" story—this is next-level wealth building.

But here's where it gets interesting: Beau wants to make his already-successful system even MORE passive without sacrificing the income that's funding his early retirement lifestyle. Watch as we dive deep into portfolio optimization, strategic property sales, and the risks and rewards of private money lending. If you're serious about real estate investing and want to see what's possible with the right strategy and execution, this episode is pure gold.
