Committing to taking action in real estate set off a chain of events that propelled me forward in my career and financially to the point where I still pinch myself every day to make sure things are real.Let's see how I did. 

I have friends that have taken the wrong advice only to find out during a visit from the local police that a different path should have been taken and now they are in a pinch to correct it immediately or suffer a loss of investment.

Of course they sell an 'installed product' so it is not readily evident, but I want everyone to make money so they're around for the next job and the next....I see no point in being so tight with every dollar, it serves no one's best interests...not even the investor who is trying to pinch every penny.

He doesnt have to make design decisions based on a developer penny pinching because he is the developer.

If it is near you, then you supposedly know the area and have friends and family there that can help in a pinch, then it seems like a very good fit.  

If you're constantly penny pinching it will not win in the end.

I would not depend on a HELOC as your reserves indefinitely, but it could work in a pinch if a great deal comes your way.

It's exciting to start investing, but if the math is wrong from the jump, you'll be pinching pennies later on.

I need to get into the habit of pinching myself whenever I get too carried away.

I once was in a pinch to get paint and was already at HD.
