Stock Market Investing vs. Real Estate Investing
This is not a question of which is better, as since this is on Biggerpockets, the bias is obvious.
My question is for the folks that are invested in both the Stock Market and Real Estate. What is your strategy for investing in both markets?
For example, some folks will invest a certain percentage in real estate, say 15-20%, and the rest goes to the stock market. Others might be trying to reach a specific cash flow goal in real estate, thus it may be higher like 75%, and then once that reach that goal, they will change their investment percentages.
I'm just curious on folks thoughts on this.

I currently have 10% of my net worth in stocks and the other 90% in real estate.
This is not my end goal/intention, I'm just young and don't have a lot of net worth.
My end goal is to have about 25-40% in the stock market/bonds/etfs/etc. and the rest in real estate. I want to be heavier in real estate, but I don't want to have all my eggs in one basket, as they say.
