Ali Boone is a 9-to-5 dropout who left a high-paying career as an Aerospace Engineer to start her own business. She is the founder of Hipster Investments, a real estate investment company that truly flips real estate investing on its head. Not only does Hipster offer unique investment opportunities that open the door for anyone to invest in real estate, but Ali has structured Hipster in such a way that allows her full freedom to create the life of her dreams.
Ali has Master’s degrees in both Aerospace Engineering and Spiritual Psychology. She has written over 170 articles for BiggerPockets.com—the world’s leading real estate investing website. She has been featured in Fox Business and The Motley Fool, has over 300k views on her Calculating Rental Property Numbers video on YouTube, has sold over 200 copies of her Turnkey Rental Properties 101 eBook, and was awarded Top 100 Real Estate Investing Blogs & Websites on the Web. If you ask Ali what her biggest accomplishment is though, she’ll tell you it’s that she successfully created a completely location-independent business that allows her to live wherever she wants, travel whenever she wants, work whenever she wants (or doesn’t want), and most importantly—she is her own boss. She is a firm believer in lifestyle design and the freedom and happiness that comes with it—and she’s certainly become an expert at living it!
When Ali isn’t busy working, she is usually flying airplanes around Santa Monica (and teaching other people to fly as well), hanging out in the SoCal outdoors whether it be the beach or the ski slopes, hanging out with her little Pekingese dog, Harley, or volunteering in California prisons where she works directly with the inmates teaching them spiritual psychology and inner freedom techniques. She is also a failed reality makeover TV star.
Amidst her busy schedule, her ultimate goal is to one day challenge Tim Ferriss to a lifestyle design duel.
LIFESTYLE DESIGN.
In other words, retirement living. What do retired people do? They do whatever they want, when they want, and wherever they want. Retirees live like lifestyle designers without even knowing it. How, as a young person, can Ali live like a retired
person? What does that even look like? Living wherever you want, traveling whenever you want, sleeping in and going to bed late if you want, watching a movie during the day, saying “yes” to any social event you want to, volunteer for anything
you want to… Ali sleeps in most days, travels when she wants, volunteers weekly in California prisons, teaches flying as “fun side gig,” and is never required to be anywhere at any particular time.
ENTREPRENEURSHIP.
Are you starting a business to work as an employee in your business, or are you starting a business to work yourself out of work? How do you figure out what kind of business to start? How do you survive the inevitable entrepreneurial roller
coaster that you will face in your first few years of business? She has lived it. She will inspire you to live it too.
PASSIVE INCOME.
Think: Robert Kiyosaki meets Tim Ferriss. Robert Kiyosaki explains why passive income is important, and Tim Ferriss describes the kind of lifestyle that can come from passive income. But neither explain exactly how the average Joe can get to that kind of lifestyle from passive income. Ali can.
SCIENCE TO SPIRIT.
How does a rocket scientist who grew up in the Bible Belt end up living in California, running her own business, and working with prison inmates on how to be happier and more free? Where is the math in all of that? What is the motivation behind pursuing what many would call “woo-woo”, and is there actual science behind it?
