About John Rickgarn

Investor.  Educator.  Realtor.  That is how John introduces himself when asked ‘What do you do?’ 

Having lost both of his parents to cancer by age 16, John realized that the typical path of getting a job and investing in a tax-deferred account for retirement may not work for everyone. 

In 2014 after having his “aha” moment, John set out educate himself on building passive income streams.  In 2016, he bought his first investment property:  a fourplex by pulling money OUT of his Roth IRA.  In 2019, John left his “safe and secure” corporate sales job of 12 years to pursue investing full time.  In 2020, John created www.wealthandfreedomnexus.com to share his journey with others and educate others to find their path to financial freedom…..one bill at a time!
