Roaming Returns
Most nomads just relocate their hustle—freelancing, content grinding, or trading time for money on the road.
We’re Tim & Carmela, the Income Investing Nomads.
On Roaming Returns, we break down how to build hybrid income streams—dividends, value investing, strategic flips, and tax-smart strategies—that decouple your time from your income.
So you can fund your freedom, travel full time (even in a van), and stop deferring your life.
No hype. No one-size-fits-all dogma. Just real numbers, tested strategies, and honest conversations about how to make work optional.
New episodes drop every Thursday.
