Looking for guidance
Hello I hope everyone is doing great, I’m in a little rut right now an not sure what to do I understand that it’s not efficient to quit a 9-5 job when trying to invest in properties but I’m been working a 3rd shift job now for 6 years. I have a reasonable savings not a ton but enough. Starting this year this job has really been weighing on me I go in to work around 1am get home around 9am it’s really starting to affect my productivity because I tend to get tired around 2pm and can’t seem to get much effective work done after that time I do have another income doing side jobs I would like to quit my W2 job but I’m not sure what is the right choice.
Right now I have a fha home with a good amount of sweat equity in it and plan to either sell this property or rent for long term
