Can I quit my job and grow $200k that I have full time?
I will soon have a $100k downpayment going into new primary home which will still leave me with $200k cash that I can use as capital. How would you invest? Do I still need a normal w-2 job or can I live and grow exponentially from $200k? Would you do flips? I'd rather take $200k and grow some type of business in real estate than working a normal w-2 job.
