    Corporate Slave to Financially Free: The Passive Income 🐐

    In this episode of the Retail Rundown Podcast, Adriano from ⁠‪@PassiveIncomeInvesting‬⁠ shares how he and his wife Erica paid off their 20-year mortgage in just 7 years, then took all that freed-up disposable income and turned it into a dividend and covered call ETF portfolio worth over $2.6 million today.That journey led them to quit their jobs in their mid-30s, sell everything, and move to Panama full-time, where a territorial tax system means they pay almost nothing on their income.Adriano breaks down how he built his portfolio from a messy 120-holding starter fund into a focused covered call strategy, why he believes "financial freedom" matters more than "early retirement," and how the 25% leverage strategy behind modern covered call ETFs lets investors get index-like returns while still collecting double-digit yields.
