Paul has a $1.6 million net worth at 40 years old—impressive by any standard—but he's stuck wondering: Can I retire in the next 5-6 years?

In this episode of BiggerPockets Money, Paul shares his journey from debt payoff to building substantial rental income during COVID-19. Now he's sitting on significant equity, strong cash flow, and a critical question: What's the fastest route to FIRE?

Hosts Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench dive deep into Paul's complete financial picture—his income, expenses, real estate portfolio, and debt—to map out his optimal path to early retirement. Should he pay down mortgages? Buy more properties? Pivot to index funds? They explore every angle to help Paul retire by 45-46.

This episode covers:

  • Paul's complete financial breakdown: income, expenses, assets, and liabilities
  • How Paul pivoted to real estate investing during COVID-19 and built rental income
  • Whether Paul should buy more rental properties or shift to index funds
  • Optimizing Paul's portfolio to retire in 5-6 years
  • Tax strategies and withdrawal planning for early retirement
  • The trade-offs between cash flow and equity in a real estate portfolio
