    Ryan D Lee | How to Retire In 10 Years or Less

    What if everything you've been taught about building wealth is wrong? Ryan D Lee shares how he walked away from a six-figure corporate salary after just four years by implementing a financial strategy that bypasses Wall Street entirely. His journey began during the 2008 financial crisis when he lost nearly 80% of his savings and almost lost his family, forcing him to question the traditional path to financial security. The breakthrough came when Ryan discovered two transformative books: "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki and "Creating Wealth" by Robert Allen. These works challenged his fundamental understanding of money, introducing concepts that seemed offensive at first glance—"savers are losers" and "debt is money." Yet as he implemented these principles through what he now calls the "Passive Income Machine," Ryan achieved what most consider impossible: complete financial freedom in less than half a decade. Ryan reveals the three core principles that drive his wealth-building strategy. First, measure financial success by the income your assets produce, not their total value. Second, choose assets that deliver tax-advantaged income streams rather than tax-deferred growth. Third, leverage is the most powerful tool in finance—not consumer debt that mortgages your future, but strategic debt that acquires assets that pay for themselves. This framework has helped countless people escape the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle and build true financial independence. The conversation takes a powerful turn when Ryan discusses the concept of honor and authentic living. By acknowledging and honoring his mentors, Ryan built relationships that led to co-authoring a book with Robert Kiyosaki and Robert Allen—the very authors who transformed his financial thinking. He emphasizes that true freedom comes from authentically using your God-given talents in service to others, creating a multiplicative effect that benefits everyone involved. With inflation squeezing household budgets and economic uncertainty rising, Ryan's message is more urgent than ever: financial education is the dividing line between those being crushed by economic forces and those who profit from them. As he powerfully states, "Financial freedom is your obligation"—not just a goal, but a responsibility to create options that allow you to pursue your purpose without financial constraints.
