One year job-quitting anniversary

Last year this time, I gave my two weeks notice to quit my corporate job. I just graduated college 1 year ago at the time, very little saved up. When I walked out of that office, people had smirks on their faces expecting me to be back in Corporate America within 3 months because ya know, "it's tough out there, 90% of startups fail, real estate is risky and the list goes on". As soon as I got out of the corporate world, I tasted the wild sweetness of entrepreneurship and most importantly, the freedom of taking control of your own life! Here I am one year later, with 57 total units and almost $1 million of assets under control, my mobile home park investment firm is expanding, and a much, much happier self. In the future, I may experience many challenges, headaches, failures, and the gut-wrenching experiences entrepreneurs know very well. But one thing is for sure, I will never go back!
