Lot of people would be happier being broke than diabetic ...This is my biggest problem, I have delayed gratification for wealth down, but for food I can’t do it and my biggest fear is get diabetes like my dad

Make a policy that is identical for RACE as it is to AGE, SEXUAL PREFERENCE, LAWFUL OCCUPATION... etc. 

@Jeffrey MasessaCollege isn’t for everyone I personally think that the real value in college is that it shows you can delay gratification for 3-4 years and commit to something.

Here's some notable quotables for you: "While most violent crimes in Detroit saw reductions from 2016-17, sexual assaults spiked from 579 to 697."

Investing in class D areas may feel like instant (cash flow) gratification, but will not get you very far.

True freedom isn't buying 5-6 houses and hoping for the best, it's a combination of suffering(by eliminating expenses, material items, immediate gratification areas) and betting on quality growth(delayed gratification, asset accumulation, perseveration, etc.) and managing the tail and head winds that come with this. 

Seeing a trend of posts calling out the instant gratification mentality of newbies!

I'm dumping it into real estate, or stocks, some kind of investment because I don't want my cash a part of some vicious cycle of inflation. 6.Borrower's rates are increasing, so people on the fence about buying because prices are "too high" will probably resort to consumerism and that immediate gratification of something new by making their next home purchase finally, or maybe beginning their a new build.

Up until a few years ago, I used to say that too many people want "instant gratification" - getting a good return on their investment right away.

Make sure if you BRRR the reno is decent because being cheap on that so that you can get more instant gratification on the cash from the refi will not end so well.
