As you can appreciate with your background your audience creates your experience as an investor.PS I am in camp SF, because I wanted the least amount of effort while I am traveling, which used to be for my corporate job, It's for pleasure and we take 6 trips every year with little to no issues

While working, I shifted my focus and started doing BRRRR projects on the side while maintaining my 9-5 job.

I work a commission based job and am on pace to make just over 6 figures for the first time this year.
