We've been on the earn and consume treadmill for the last two years as we graduated, got married, and bought a house - we want off! 

It's like they intentionally put us on this treadmill where the more you borrow, the better.

Learn to recognize your "enough" or you will put yourself on a never-ending treadmill of your own making.

Property B started with a higher initial return, but rents did not keep pace with inflation, so the time off the treadmill is short-lived.RentsYou do not control the rent.

In such locations, it does not matter how many properties you own, you will soon be back on the daily worker treadmill because your buying power is declining every day..

The goal of real estate investing is to get off and stay off the daily worker treadmill.

If you choose a city where rents have not kept pace with inflation, your time off the treadmill will be short.
