Great story, motivational and informative there are a few steps I need to take before jumping in, and I would have skipped them if it wasn't for this conversation.

Scott Weaner what is your calculator can you articulate further sir ?
Carlos Velasquez that was great information I guess I should read more into the details of doing a refinance but in the mean time can you explain what it is say I buy a property for 100k and re finance ? Do I still owe 100 k ?

Good after noon Bigger Pockets family I'm 100% fresh out of the boat, I don't have deals in 50 states or have investors backing me up just a humble beginner looking to learn more about this industry. 

I guess I should start by introducing my self My name is Sergio I live in the awesome city of Phoenix, Az I came to the U.S 22 yrs ago from Colombia, I served honorably in the U.S Marines and I currently work in the oil and gas industry in the frozen state of ND, some of my hobbies are riding my motorcycle, hiking, shooting at the range, salsa, bachata, vallenato dancing.

Like almost every one I was influenced by Robert Kiyosaki's Rich dad Poor dad a few years ago and that set in motion a desire to get out of the rat race, I started working in the oil industry to get out off debt as prescribed by Dave Ramsey now a few years in to my oil field career I've accomplished some financial goals and now ready to dive in to the real state world so I can work for my self "minding my business" (forgot who said that but good quote) I like to focus on buy and hold rental property the residual income is something that is appealing to me, I guess my goal is to eventually stop "working" and spend more time with family and donate more of my time and money to my friends organization helping disable kids and under privilege families in Colombia.

I hope this was a proper intro and it wasn't too long looking forward to one day being on the Bigger pockets podcast with Josh and Brandon and having photograph taken with Robert Kiyosaki.
