Investing Strategies for the Full-Time Employee

[Matt Robinson]

“Take this job and shove it!” ~Johnny Paycheck

This infamous phrase may have its genesis in a 1970’s country song, but if you're working a 9-5 job, the temptation to shout that line at your boss as you run out the door to “freedom” has certainly crossed your mind more than a time or two.

Many new entrepreneurs come to the world of investing to get OUT of their job, which is an admirable goal and may in fact be the best decision long-term. However, making that decision too quickly can oftentimes force you to “eat your seed” rather than planting it, significantly slowing your progress towards true financial independence.

Those who are trying to balance investing and a full-time job might be surprised to find that they are actually in the majority, as nearly 75% of independent landlords (and many flippers) are pulling the same double duty. So, rather than encourage you to abandon your consistent & dependable W-2 income, we want to show you how to maximize that income (along with your time and other valuable resources), so you can “bloom where you’re planted!”

At this month’s meeting of the Professional Investors Guild, we will be taking a closer look at some of the strategies and techniques that you need to build a real estate portfolio, or flipping business, while also working a full-time job. Some of the topics to be covered include:

-How to Leverage Your Job for Additional “Seed”
-The Importance of Organization & “SIPs”
-Tools & Resources to Increase Overall Efficiency
-Effective Time Management to Maintain Work/Life Balance
…and So Much More!

This is another can’t-miss meeting, so grab your smart phones and mark your calendars! We’ll be in MOBILE on Monday, March 11th at the Mobile Convention Center (Room 204B). ALL WORKSHOPS start promptly at 7 PM with networking and registration beginning at 6:30 PM.
