Most Guilty Pleasure you've Bought with Real Estate Profits
Just for fun but I know many of us have made it pretty big in real estate whether its a huge flip, cashout refinance, or built up rental profits.
but I want to see what our biggest most extravagant guilty pleasure purchases have been that we couldn't otherwise do without real estate
Please for the sake of the conversation don't be boring and say, financial freedom or like more properties. Those are kind of givens with why we're in REI.
I'll start! I upgraded my bachelor pad from a 980 sq ft. condo with 2b1b to a 2300 sq ft 3b2b SFH (with hot tub hehe)
Also I hope this encourages people to see that you really can do more with your life if you succed in this industry.

Mine is probably lame, but I am a complete beater-driving, shredding debt tightwad that has squeezed max ROI out of every dollar since I could walk.
We have been vacationing as a family more than ever. Next up mid-December is a week in the southeast-ish (NO, Memphis, Nashville). $4k just for airfare and hotel, will probably be $6k by the time we eat and attend events/museums.
I'm nowhere near travelling awesomeness like our buddy @J. Martin, but I am getting there and it's a work in progress. Trying for experiences where the ROI is building memories. Thanks for doing this @David Zheng!
