@Jessie Nunley I agree with @Linda S. don't worry about them. (BTW that was an awesome quote!!) Those are the type of people that will get to the end of their life and say "I wish I would have done this or that". If you haven't read Brandon Turners book "The Book on managing Rental properties" you need to get a copy of it. It will give you the confidence to move forward and it is one of the issues he addresses... below is a quick excerpt from his book.
Good Luck
"Most of the time when we try to explain
what we do, we get a lot of blank stares and glossed-over looks. If
you haven’t found that out yet, you will. The world just doesn’t get
us. They don’t understand the passion we have for financial freedom.
Most people fall into one of two camps:
1. Those who think you are crazy for trying.
2. Those who think you are just greedy.
Can you relate? Most of your family, friends, and almost anyone else
you talk to will fall into one of these two camps, though if you’re
lucky, they’ll simply be happy for you. They’ll discourage you, try to
tell you all the reasons why it won’t work, and try to talk you back
into the routine 9-5 life they feel comfortable in. Screw that - you
don’t feel comfortable there, and you shouldn’t! So how can you get
out there and talk with people when no one wants to talk? Easy: You
need to find the right people."
