Military Spouse to Millionaire

By: Kendra Atienza
  • Summary

  • FUN FACT!!! There are over 20 million MILLIONAIRES in the US…90% of them made their fortune through real estate. ANOTHER FUN FACT…less than 1% of the US population gets guaranteed TAX FREE money for housing (BAH) AND the ability to buy a home with no money down. If you and your family are part of this 1% this podcast is for you. If you think a 20 year retirement and disability is going to set you up for life after the military in a comfortable way, you would unfortunately be very sadly mistaken. That’s why you need to leverage your active duty military time and think about your families financial future. STOP using your BAH and other entitlements to pay for someone else’s lifestyle (renting) or WORSE giving it all back to the government (living on post). You can’t afford to keep your head in the sand and let the fear mongers run the show. Look up.. look around…90% of wealthy Americans make their money one way…. Real estate! So unless you are about to get a record deal and be the next Beyoncé or drafted into the NFL and become the new Tom Brady you better listen up, get educated and start investing in yourself. Why am I coming at you guns blazing about this topic? Because, 15 years ago my husband and I WERE you! We were squarely middle class…a normal hard working military family with 2 kids and we had a good life just like you might now but buying our first home in 2009 changed EVERYTHING and put us on a path to now being millionaires! We are not special guys…neither me nor my husband came from wealthy families, we just looked around at what works for 90% of wealthy people and did the same and now we are here to help you do it too!

  • Ep. 10 The NERVE of On Post Housing
    Dec 10 2024

    Welcome to Military Spouse to Millionaire Episode 10, this episode I vent about the recent events that have been happening in an effort to try to make home buying the more difficult option when service members are pcsing to Hawaii. The absolute gull that on post housing and military superiors have for trying to reduce or take away benefits from service members and their families completely blows my mind. I tell you about the experiences I’ve had lately with on post housing “authorities” and their attempt to retaliate by forcing me, a real estate professional, to amend legal binding documents to appease their rules. I also get into how military superiors are blatantly reducing TLA to leave service members to feel they have no other option than to give their BAH to crappy base housing is absolutely infuriating and wrong… so let’s get into it! ------------------------------------ FUN FACT!!

  • Ep. 6 Thank You RENTERS
    Sep 25 2024

    Welcome to Military Spouse to Millionaire Episode 6, where we will be talking all about renters and the lifestyle they help provide other people. I talk about my own perspective from owning multiple rental properties and the money that I make passively from those properties.

    This episode is for all of the renters out there that don't know if they can buy or are too scared to buy a home. You need to change your mindset when it comes to renting vs buying or at least get educated on your options!

    • 2:27 understanding that not everyone is in a position to buy a home

    • 4:35 my personal experience with renters that were too scared to buy

    • 6:13 giving my client the hard truth about the money they would spend renting

    • 8:15 our recent vacation where we visited our rental properties

    • 10:34 passive income we make on our rental properties

    • 13:34 how our renters paid for our vacation

    • 16:00 renting out our property in Hawaii

    • 20:00 the mental shift that needs to happen for renters

    • 21:00 getting educated on your options when it comes to home buying and it’s importance
