MtoM #246: Neonatologist's Hobby Turns into Lucrative Side Gig and Alternative Investment and Finance 101: Alternative Investments

We have a Milestone on the podcast today that we have never heard before. We are chatting with a Neonatologist who has become financially stable enough to start investing in comic books. He has acquired a $500,000 collection. He said he was on his way to FIRE and realized he really enjoys his job and wanted to spend more along the way. So he went back to his highschool passion of collecting comic books. The cool thing is that this hobby has become lucrative as an alternative investment. He has made six figures in buying and trading comic books. It just goes to show that there is real joy in spending and enjoying your money alongside saving for retirement. After the interview we are talking about alternative investments for Finance 101.
