Easy. They sell their Orange Co. CA home they bought for $250K for $1M after a decade, then buy another house for $1.5M and sell that a decade later for $3M. Sell that house, then they buy a house in TN for $1M, A house in The Villages for $500K, and then they invest the remainder. In the meantime, for the next couple decades, both the TN and the FL house continue to appreciate in value as does the remainder being invested.

See, Easy.
