Morning S.A.V.E.R.S. – Part 2

I first blogged about Morning S.A.V.E.R.S. with the post here. In Part 2 here, I would like to further elaborate on the first 3 parts of this routine, and provide you with my own personal interpretation on how that works and I use it myself. Let’s recap on what the first 3 abbreviations represent: S…

I Love My Job

People may say “I Love My Job” for many reasons. When referring to the term “job,” we are talking about the 9-5, W2, full time job; the one that you are trading your time for your salary, that most of us are engaged to at the moment. There is absolutely nothing wrong when someone says…

FIRE, Part 2 – Financial Independence with Real Estate

We talked about FIRE as in Financial Independence, Retire Early in a previous blog post (that you can read here). But when it comes to the term of “FIRE,” we also have a slightly different, but playful interpretation of what it means. At DoorInvestor, FIRE also means Financial Independence with Real Estate. It is quite…

When Can I Retire?

Have you ever asked yourself (or your friends) this question, “When can I retire?” Traditionally, we think of reaching the goal of retirement when we have $X in our bank account. For example, one will say, “I can retire when I have 2 million dollars in my bank.” Although that is a very common and…

Morning S.A.V.E.R.S. – Part 1

Living in the world of “snooze” buttons, it is very common for us trying to maximum our time in bed and only waking up at the very last minute, I can certainly understand it is not easy to embrace the concept of Morning S.A.V.E.R.S. We at DoorInvestor do not require our team members to religiously…

FIRE – Financial Independence, Retire Early

People often have a negative impression when it comes to the concept of “retirement.” Some may say, “it will be so boring when you do nothing at home;” other may say, “we should be productive to this world and not waste our talents.” I do not disagree with all these statements, but at the same…

The Review of Rich Dad’s Cashflow Quadrant

I believe the entire Rich Dad concept is built around the infamous Cashflow Quadrant.  The Cashflow Quadrant is made up of 4 categories, obviously.  They are: E, S, B, I.  E means Employee; S means Self-Employed; B means Business; and I means Investment. These 4 categories can generally cover all possible types of ways to…

Perfect Day

We at DoorInvestor encourage every team member to write down his/her “Perfect Day.” The purpose of this exercise is to allow you to visualize how you want to live your life. Think about it: Most of us live in “busy, yet routine, schedule” in which we are constantly running around chasing to complete the next…

The Review of Rich Dad, Poor Dad

It is not our intention to provide an extensive book review on the famous personal finance book, “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”, here. Rather, we are trying to extract several key concepts out from our reading, that we deemed extremely valuable and applicable to us, and then share with you, our readers. Pay Yourself First Rich…

Single Family vs. Multi Family

The traditional way of investing in real estate is through single family. In fact, at DoorInvestor, we all have gone through this path of investing at some point in our investment life: Save up for down payment Buy a house and finance with a mortgage Rent the house out and manage the property and tenant…
