Everyone sells the "quit from your 9-5 in 1 year dream" but it's modern day snake oil. 

While living here (with 2 cats, 3 geckos, and a snake), we ended up paying about $300 per month each, which included lot rent and all utilities. 

Let that sink in and play with this snake no more. 

It has a sewer snake, chainsaw, and just about anything else you would need to make any repair.

I was a guy who ripped up old, dusty carpet and pulled 2000+ staples out of original hardwood floors, snaked drains, cleaned up a gross house, painted the whole place myself, got my hands dirty, and needed some help.

When the rest of my apt loans and primary are satisfied in a few years my cf will increase another 50% without additional tenants or toilets or hunting or none a that.What free has meant to me is not worrying about strict budgets anymore and not applying for snakes, I mean credit cards, to track my cattle, I mean travel points, to fly standby on the cheap.

Maybe Im wrong but, I feel like the "professional" mentors will sell you snake oil.

Do not give those snakes any more of your money.

I got a call last week that there was a clog in the toilet, he tried to plunge but didn't work so we called the plumber to snake it and found out it was TP.

I'm considering house hacking a duplex on the canal as well but its freshwater and the gators/snakes have me questioning that.
