Goals for 2013

[Jay Y.]

I definitely want to make good progress this year. What can I say, I've been bit by the real estate bug and it's addicting! Here's what I'm planning to do to reach my goals (save downpayment for #3, maybe #4 if I'm lucky; I'm into long-term buy and hold):

-Save 70% of net income from JOB
-Stop investing in 401k
-Supplement savings with cash flow from property #1 and property #2
-Cash out of stock options, ESPP, and RSU's
-Sell old junk
-Research into out-of-state markets
-Network with other BP members
-Don't get too caught up with the future... also try to live in the moment and appreciate everyday. Lucky for me, I don't need to spend much to be happy :)

I'm going to try and focus on cash-flow, looking for $100k and under properties.

Thanks everyone for all the motivation/inspiration! I get too excited after reading the articles, listening to podcasts, and reading other success stories! Just more fuel to the fire...
