My goal is to buy my first rental property by my 21st birthday which is going to be in July.

Get-together, birthdays .

Should have sent that Thank-you note for the $20 on your 10th birthday.

My ideal property would be a single family home, have a purchase price of 36k, need 3k in repairs, 1 bed 1 bath, rented to a single old lady that only calls to wish me birthday and to talk about the most recent vhs movie she watched, pay rent on time and have a monthly cashflow of $300.  

My goal was to purchase my first investment property by my 24th birthday and I achieved my goal with 2 days to spare! 

Coming up on my 23rd birthday I'm realizing that working my job as a computer engineer won't be enough to survive comfortably while creating generational wealth for my family that I have now and my family that's yet to come.

I just had my 19th birthday recently.

So, hopefully getting that accepted will be my Birthday Present today.

I can't say I have stories yet as I have just bought my first property this year but I too have plans to retire by my 40th birthday (it's a friday) ... wish you all three best

I am thinking right around my birthday of next year I will seriously start looking as I am paying off all my smaller debts (except my current house note haha) and will have more money for a down payment etc then.
