Turnkeys and lifestyle design seem the way to go. 

Find a nitch that fits your goals, lifestyle and personality. 

College is not my thing, party hard lifestyle isnt either, I get bored very easily with many different things and I want to feel completely free to do what I want to do,when I want to.

To do so at the rate I want to, and without significantly reducing our modest lifestyle, I need feel that I need to also focus on doing a few SFR flips through the year to generate additional funds, to help accelerate the velocity of my buy and hold property acquisition program.Therein is where I find the rub.

However, the stressful lifestyle that comes with an 8-5 job is something I've come to... dislike.

I'll just add that if you are looking to augment your retirement income, you should make sure you are getting a property that fits your lifestyle.

And a way that will easily provide me with a lifestyle that I could have never achieved any other way.......Heck.

My ideal scenario would be to own a small investment company with a partner that holds a few mid-sized rental properties for baseline income, and supplements this with a few high-profit flips every year to help grow the rental portfolio and pay for lifestyle upgrades, vacations, etc.My formal education is an Electrical Design engineer, and for the past 10 years I've worked for large companies designing complex electronic (computer) circuits for things like Medical Devices, LED lighting, etc.

Lifestyles Unlimited has a lot of stuff in Houston.  

There is a group in town that is focusing on multi family, it is called lifestyle unlimited, i have never been so I wouldn't be able to give feedback but it's worth checking out!
