White vs Color Towels is not a Chevy Vs Ford argument I'm looking to get into right now.

Keep the 1G on ice, work a 2nd job (or a temporary job) for 1 year and bank all of the paychecks 100% in a special savings account.When that savings account has the amount of money in it that you need to start, and to safely operate--stop the 2nd job and make Real Estate your second job.Take some time to take your kids and wife to Cedar Point, and the Henry ford Museum, and camping in the woods for a week so they don't forget what a nice guy you are.Just my 2 Cents.

The Type of Vehicle: For cars and light trucks (less than 6,000 pounds) you can write off up to $11, 1060.For trucks or SUVs over 6,000 pounds like a Hummer or a Ford F150, you can write off up to $25,000 of the purchase price.Because you don’t have to buy the vehicle brand new, there is an opportunity to write off %100 percent of the cost.

It is sad that a “ford motor company employee” can’t afford a $300/mo mortgage payment.

Spend the $3K on property, tolls and rehab material.  26 SFHs, 1 LLC, 1 checking account, 1 laptop, 1 mobile phone, 1 spreadsheet, 1 old Ford Ranger, a ton of tools and 20 or so skilled trades / professionals on speed dial.
