Non-Real Estate Investments/Ventures

Dj Samson
Posted

I'm just starting out with real estate investing but I am constantly tweaking my long-term and short-term plans. I wanted to ask the BiggerPockets community if anyone does any other type of business ventures?

The reason I ask is because they opened up a Moe's (a growing national mexican-food chain) in my area and they're absolutely killing it. The place has been packed for the past year since they started doing business. I looked up the owner and he operates multiple locations in my state plus a few frozen-yogurt stores as well. It seems like a great passive income stream.

I have also been daydreaming about the idea of opening up my own property management firm when I decide to become a full-time investor.

It's obviously an investment I won't be able to undertake for a while, but I was wondering does anyone else dabble in other entrepreneurial ventures?
