Two decades later, Nuñez and his wife Stefani Nicole Penaranda now have two children and six streams of income in Lucketts, Virginia. They own a snowplow business and seven real estate properties. Penaranda runs a day care and is a real estate agent, while Nuñez works in IT consulting and as a cybersecurity contractor. After high school, Nuñez began taking nursing classes at Northern Virginia Community College. "My idea to get to my goals faster was to have different streams of income and revenue," Nuñez says.
