Financial Freedom at 29: Tanisha Souza’s Income Snowball System
Tanisha Souza became financially free at 29 using her patented Income Snowball system. Learn how passive income can replace your 9–5 forever.
In this episode of RealDealChat, Jack sits down with Tanisha Souza, attorney-turned-investor and founder of Tardus Wealth Strategies, to discuss her journey to financial freedom and her unique Income Snowball System.
Tanisha shares how she went from a burned-out attorney with $100K in student loans to financially free by age 29—replacing her income through smart real estate investing. She explains why passive income is the ultimate wealth strategy, how she and her husband built their portfolio, and how clients today are reaching financial freedom in just 5–10 years using her patented calculator.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this conversation:
- Why flipping isn’t true investing (and what to do instead)
- How the Income Snowball System accelerates passive income
- The difference between “fast-burning fuel” and “slow-burning fuel” investments
- Real-life client success stories, including retirees, entrepreneurs, and even restaurant servers who built financial freedom
- Why financial education and leveraging mentors is more valuable than chasing high IRRs
- How Tanisha teaches her teenage daughters to achieve financial freedom before 30
- Why generational wealth is about skills and mindset—not just passing down money
- The role of AI and automation in managing and scaling investments
