@Robert Tinker out here saying nothing but the truth. the earlier "Canada is better than the U.S. because we care" comment screamed brain washed to me. Wild that we're supposed to be investors here, using logic and math but when the logic and math says the opposite of what the talking heads says, people bury their heads in the sand. 
look at the numbers and look at logic. same in business as in life.

Weird that you can deny someone based on a personal healthcare choice that you can't legally ask about....(at least in the U.S. it's a HIPAA violation)

I like cashflow game. however it's all luck once you've played it 20 times through you learn the patterns and can just use credit till you roll a lucky number and boom, you're free.
if you create a better game, please share it, I would love it.

@Jerryll Noorden I mean, technically you're not wrong though. An apple doesn't swim because it is sweet. humans and animals aren't sweet and they can swim. Basic anatomy wins again!

Have you looked into house hacking? 3.5% downpayment on a property. idk how expensive the market is but surely $50k is 3.5%?

600k 3.5% is $21k. a quick search shows a few duplexes between 600-650k in Austin. buy one. live in one side for a year, rent out the second side. after a year, move out.

I was also contacted by Jeremy. I've contacted NV through their mortgage division's website. of course I didn't provide any information to them or any funds. I'm new, just not THAT new.
