    He Hit Coast FI at 28, Quit His Job, and Built Nearly $2M by 32

    Kevin Scanlan, better known as the Financial Tutor, joins Mindy Jensen and Scott Trench on the BiggerPockets Money podcast to share how he went from house hacking in Chicago to building nearly $2 million in net worth by age 32 and leaving his six-figure corporate job. He breaks down how buying and renovating a three-unit property helped accelerate his wealth, how side hustles grew into a new career, and why he ultimately decided to sell the property.  Now, with a growing family and more than $500,000 in proceeds from the sale, Kevin faces a new question: should he invest the money, pay down his mortgage, or build a business? It's a candid look at Coast FI, real estate investing, entrepreneurship, and what financial freedom actually looks like when your priorities start to change.
