Do you feel like an investor?
When did you "feel" like an investor?
(Talking to myself)I am an investor. I have two properties and a tenant. But I don't "feel" like an investor. I'm using my personal address, phone number, and bank account so it "feels" more like a side hustle than an actual business. Would a LLC make me feel more like an investor?
Who else felt this way and what processes did you implement, short of creating a legal entity, to make it feel like a legit business?
