Hey everyone,

Found out about this website from the Financial Independence sub on Reddit.  I'm currently 31, married with two kids and a third on the way.  I work full time in a corporate job, but constantly dream of financial independence.  

I currently own my primary residence as well as a rental property.  I'm scared of "leveraging" but I also want to aggressively build my real-estate portfolio so it can generate residual income.  I'm looking to be able to quit my full time job and have real estate supplement my income, but I'm scared to go all in, especially with a young family and things like health insurance.

I'm looking forward to expanding my knowledge and interacting with people here who've been successful in achieving financial independence through real estate!
