I really had no idea investing in a company could be done in much of the same way we invested in our home. Some of you may remember how we did a lease/ purchase arrangement to buy our home. It was nice because it gave us time to save up for a bigger down payment...

So much of our life has just sorted it’s self out, regardless of our preferences and just as soon as we relinquished control over the situation. This story is no different. Nathan’s career was taking an unexpected turn and we became a family of three living off no work income. Self sufficiency was always a...
