Hmm? He has a job, he is landlording, probably doesn't take a huge amount of time, but it is part time work. Post does seem a bit odd, paying off 3 properties in about 6-7 years is pretty unusual, I'd estimate that is $500k-700k+, usually just land-lording and investing (even in emerging markets), wouldn't pay nearly that much. Also, saying the properties are paid off AND all money goes into emerging markets is odd, that would leave me to believe there is even more than 700K, not even professional/successful small businesses pull in money that fast.
That aside, retirement without hobbies is like cherry pie without cherries, go buy some cherries. Otherwise it is going to taste bad.
