Most 21-year-olds aren’t thinking about Roth IRAs, early retirement, house hacking, or graduating college debt-free. But today’s guest, Anthony, is! Anthony is currently a student in community college, preparing to transfer to a four-year college next year.

Alternatively, he could house hack which could cash flow him through college and allow him to leave with a degree and a profitable rental property.
