I'm also hoping to retire at about 40, but I haven't yet been able to figure out how to minimize my exposure to health risks enough yet (provided that medicine doesn't get socialized or something by then).

I know what you mean construction is not new to me but the whole social media thing is.

Also, in this world of social media I have an unusual talent for drawing.

We should use the power of social media that BP is to protect ourselves.

I've come to the conclusion that social security will probably not be around by the time I can retire, so I'm planning now for income during retirement. 

Be active in the various social scenes such as local clubs, community work, local events, anything that is community bound.  

I advise young investors to distance themselves from their old social environment if those people have no financial advantage to them.

Social Anxiety is always getting the best of me.

You could try to specialize in something: digital marketing, social media, direct mail marketing (managing a mailing database, designing mailers), real estate software programs, etc.  

In the meanwhile, it's cash flowing very well from the rents.I found this through Social media.
