Today, I welcome Doug Nordman back to the show! Doug is an early retiree (he retired at 41) and his hobby is helping other military personnel improve their financial lives.
One of the more interesting aspects of Doug's financial life is his involvement in private business as an angel investor. He's not only involved with the community of investors near him in Hawaii, he's also committed a substantial amount of his savings toward his investments.
In this interview you'll learn:

Why Doug invests his money in private companies even though the majority of his investments are held in mutual funds.
How much money he has made and how many of his investments have gone bust!
How to get involved as an angel investor yourself!

You'll also learn how to make the decision of rent vs. buy when considering where to live.
Enjoy!
Joshua
