Description
He Sold His $500k California Home to Live on $900/Month in the Philippines
My name's Ken. I'm 69, and I'm from a suburb of San Jose, California, right in the belly of Silicon Valley. Now before you picture me as some tech millionaire, let me stop you, because that's the whole irony of this story. I wasn't. I was an HVAC technician. I fixed air conditioning and heating systems for forty years, and for most of that time I was solidly, comfortably middle class.
The thing is, I bought my house back in the early eighties for something like eighty-five thousand dollars, a modest little three-bedroom ranch, nothing special. And then I just... lived in it. For forty years. And while I was under people's houses fixing their air conditioners, something insane happened to the world around me. Silicon Valley exploded. And that modest little eighty-five-thousand-dollar house, through no genius of my own, through nothing I did except not move, became worth five hundred thousand dollars. More, honestly, by the end.
