Sharen Carruthers had a goal to invest in real estate and be retired by 50. She achieved her life’s dream with two weeks to spare, and then did as many retired people do. She travelled the world to all the places she wanted to. She gave her time to family and some business interests. And then … she got bored. 

This exciting, inspiring and enlightening conversation with Sharen demonstrates that sometimes our goals and dreams are there to open up a new possibility of what’s next. It’s not always  the achievement of a goal that is the magic. It’s the opportunity that the achievement. And Sharen shares all of that on this episode of Property Investor Tales. Enjoy!
