The financial bloggers who call themselves the [Frugalwoods](http://www.frugalwoods.com) are planning an early retirement—by age 33, to be precise. Here's some insight on how they hope to do it.

**Invest in Real Estate:** By using their current home as a rental property, the Frugalwoods will maintain a steady income.

**Have Investments:** In addition to their rental property, the Frugalwoods have investments in both taxable and tax-deferred accounts.

**Have a Variety of Income Streams:** The two of them plan on expanding their investments—for example, putting a unit on their property that they can rent out via Airbnb.
