He points out that most people have spent their lives trading time for money, setting aside funds in accounts they've been told not to touch. The only new money entering these accounts comes from investment gains, but once retirement begins, people start drawing down their savings each month to cover expenses.

Al Gordon explores the idea of "imploding" your 401(k). He presents a scenario in which someone has $244,000 in their 401(k), which could be used for real estate investments. Al suggests using this amount to acquire single-family properties, leveraging hard money loans and contributing $25,000 as the initial investment for each property. This approach allows the investor to purchase approximately eight properties, generating around $1,600 in passive income per month, or $19,200 annually.
