The Investor Lab From Corporate Grind to Financial Freedom: Ben Munn’s Journey | #258
If you want to pursue your passion but feel trapped in the daily grind, you’ve come to the right place.
In this episode of the Dashdot Insider Podcast, we chat with Ben Munn, a property investment expert who turned data-driven decisions into a quest for true happiness.
Ben was an average corporate guy who took a bold leap into the nonprofit world to follow his passion. And not only did he find purpose, but he also crafted a pathway to financial freedom through property investing.
Ben walks us through his emotional journey, sharing how an analytical background in tech helped him manage the highs and lows.
From selling their home to create a financial legacy for their kids and grandkids, to aggressively investing in properties through a self-managed superfund, they broke free from the 9-to-5 hamster wheel and assembled a rockstar team of advisors so they could succeed.
