500k Net worth in 5 years (I'm 30 today!!!)

Well I'm old now :(  turned 30 today, As I look back over the past 5 years I am grateful for the success that has happened in my life  and wanted to share a word of encouragement for those who are just getting started.

I started by house hacking a duplex while only making 35k per year from my day Job.  5 years later we have now done over 10 deals and have 500k+ in net worth and great cash flow from our properties! 

Bigger Pockets was THE resource that we used to grow. Thanks to all you people who helped me grow on my journey! 

Oh and I hit 1000 posts! 

If you are out there and wondering if real-estate is a good path, I hope this can be an encouragement for you! Use Bigger pockets and take lots of action!
