They’re typically stable, cash flowing businesses that are straightforward and simple to understand.

All other SDIRA's, 401K's, traditional IRA except Roth IRA and Solo 401K Roth require tax be paid at the retirement age, do correct me if it's not true.Do you know about the Josh Gilmore (josh@sdirawealth) SDIRA wealth firm?

ya or older semi retired attorney might be a good fit.. low stress get paid.

I've consistently written about the forces of nature and her current and future effects on the real estate market (even while often being ridiculed and politicized on this very site for it) regardless: I personally moved and invested in coastal Oregon in 2018 from Venice Beach Los Angeles partly as a result of the trajectory of climate and have assisted several clients that specifically purchased on the Oregon Coast for their own 'climate havens,' investment and future retirement homes. 

You can very comfortably and at your own pace set yourself up for a very stable start by strategically positioning yourself to be able to buy a property this way if you start preparing now.I hope this was helpful!

Essentially ended up screwed out of a substantial chunk of retirement savings and left to find my own lender elsewhere to close the deal.
