We did out earn them.

I had constant issues with the local government and the taxes were absurd.

If they get married it will help her earn SS benefits, etc etc. 

And there is a constant mention of Guaranteed returns there is no Guarantee unless its the federal govmit on 250k or less FDIC insured .. this was simply investor greed.. investors did not understand what they were investing in what the risks were and were blinded by the returns offered.. no one put a gun to their head.. investor make bad investments all the time..  

I am constantly reaching out to provide value to other wholesalers out there and in turn others see my company name. 

Increase your earnings, reduce expenses, save up, and invest.

The absolute best way to avoid taxes is not earn income.  

When I first started learning about REI (4 years ago) I had these thoughts constantly.

Someone trying to earn 4-5% return they could get from a bank cd?

And I was constantly more worried about my own project.
