One path is to sell for $260,000 make several thousand FSBO, roll it into another investment, but there is SO much inventory out there right now that I'm gambling for some appreciation over the next four years.

Lately, my activity feed seems spammed by someone I don't even like but I keep him as a colleague to watch his activity because I know who he really is and what he's really trying to do so I'm keeping a close eye on him.

I don’t think its worth the gamble, but its your call.

It's a gamble either way.At this point, I would recommend you cut your losses and give them notice.

REI is a lot like Poker...not because they are both gambling. 

With sports gambling potentially becoming legal I am really like the play around Churchhill Downs.

If you need additional income to supplement and have less net worth, cash flow properties for cheap might work the best but for someone who does not need additional income gambling with appreciation might turn out beneficial.

I'm smart and make my own decisions, for example, I don't invest in bitcoin, it doesn't pay positive cash flow every month, that's gambling.

i have nothing but problems with the Michigan property. i do not suggest it unless you have very good management and a willing to gamble .

@Jason White,My first impulse is to say no matter how much you have available you'll want to invest for income in retirement to ensure that your money is growing at such a rate that you drawing your living expenses from it will not deplete the principal during your expectable lifetime.You may want to read up on self-directed retirement accounts and other ways of being a private money lender.My personal thoughts on buying property with no loans is that its roughly equivalent to gambling in the Wall Street Casino.
