.”~ Ronnie ColemanKinda like Real Estate....everyone wants to be financially independent or rich, but not everyone wants to put in the time or maintain that singular determination required to not let anything get in the way of accomplishing that goal.

It's been a couple of years since we've had to replace a carpet, but I'd be happy to share the contractor we used.And, no, Home Depot will never be cheaper than an independent contractor: They have to mark up the cost for it to make sense for them to be involved.

Are you trying for financial independence?

Listing agent's don't independently verify square footage.

I’m very interested in becoming financially independent and it would be great to have a support system (beyond digital), that we could all rely on together.

Most of the areas from Independence, Raytown, South Kansas City and Grandview can be good.

When you get into a higher end product/market, it becomes like every design decision is its own independent 'deal' or house. 

I mean would you rather begin working towards financial independence or have a car that you could eventually repurchase later.

Note: there are independent companies that encourage you to set up bi-weekly payment schedules with them on your thirty year mortgage.

You would be way ahead if you paid them 25.00 an hour as a 1099 or independent contractor.It is all a decision you have to make about time and the value of the money.
