In the Andes

What does it take to make an 'impossible' dream come true?

A dream so BIG that it hardly seems likely it could happen...

Like riding your bike from Alaska to Argentina -- and doing it with two young boys (who then receive the Guinness Book of World Record) -- over a period of three years (I interviewed them previously, you can read it here).

How could you accomplish something like that? How would you pay for it?

The Vogel family is definitely an example of 'living the dream'. They made the 'impossible' a reality. So how did they make it happen?

Greg interviewed Nancy Vogel last week and asked her how they created the funding for their travel adventures (this isn't the first amazing experience they've had... they've also cycled the U.S., and lived abroad).

She shares information about how their teaching careers helped them to get international teaching positions, which in turn helped them save, invest in real estate, and use their rental income to finance their long term trip from Alaska to Argentina.

Through their international teaching careers, they managed to not only gain valuable experience but also build a solid financial foundation. The income from their positions allowed them to save diligently and invest in real estate, turning their rental properties into a steady source of passive income. This financial strategy proved invaluable, as it enabled them to embark on an extensive journey from Alaska to Argentina, exploring diverse cultures and landscapes without financial stress.

As they traveled, they remained engaged with the real estate market, particularly in vibrant cities like Orlando. They found useful resources, such as those available at https://exprealty.com/us/fl/orlando/houses/, to keep track of investment opportunities and manage their properties efficiently from afar. This integration of travel and real estate management ensured that their investments continued to thrive while they explored the world, combining their passions for teaching, travel, and property investment.

Similarly, for those looking to invest in real estate in Miami-Dade County, FL, staying informed about local market trends is key. Utilizing resources that provide detailed insights into Miami-Dade County FL zip codes can greatly aid in making strategic investment decisions. By exploring comprehensive listings and neighborhood data, prospective buyers can identify promising areas and make informed choices about their property investments. This approach helps ensure that investments are well-placed and aligned with market opportunities, whether you’re buying your first home or expanding your real estate portfolio in this dynamic region.

Nancy also gives great advice on the key to creating funding for a dream -- learning to think outside the box.
