The Active Duty Passive Income Podcast
The military taught us discipline, leadership, and resilience—but it never taught us how to build wealth or create true financial freedom. That’s where we come in.
I’m Markian Sich, a United States Marine turned real estate investor, and I know firsthand how tough it can be to figure out what’s next after service. That’s why I started The Active Duty Passive Income Podcast—to bring you real stories, real strategies, and real success from military investors, entrepreneurs, and industry experts who’ve been where you are.
We talk about leveraging your VA Loan, Military House Hacking, and proven investing strategies to help you build passive income, transition with confidence, and take control of your financial future.
You’ve fought hard to defend the American Dream—now let’s make sure you own a piece of it. Subscribe now and start your journey to financial freedom!

Carving a Niche in Underwriting With Michael Scanlon │Ep 287
This week Kevin catches up with college buddy Michael Scanlon, who went from being an athlete/model/student to venturing into the real estate arena and closing deals as his own broker. Listen to how he has achieved a personal net worth just short of $2m and has done so through wise usage of numbers from liquidity hacks at the purchase to cost segregations, and more. Michael's journey is an inspiring example of what can be achieved through hard work, strategic thinking, and a willingness to learn and adapt. His story is a testament to the power of taking control of your life and venturing out of your comfort zone to pursue your passions.
"Maximize liquidity early on to have a buffer on your first deal or two (or all of them)."
