Look, we were for most part playing a game of American Football for a long time.

Include some outdoor games (cornhole, foursquare).

Way to get in the game!

Flipping is a poor man's game. 

I work for a building materials company now and took their online game from Zero to very engaged in the past few years and it's been really fun.

It sounds like you’ve got a solid foundation and a smart game plan, especially with the house hacking strategy.

We could also play the present value to who game?

I gravitate towards "red states" given the landlord-friendly laws and relative ease of evictions, which unfortunately are unavoidable in the buy and hold game.

Removing all skills from the equation, if you don't take a break from participating as a real estate investor in some way each day, you will stay far ahead of everyone else who keeps subbing themselves out and then asking to get back in when the game is already out of reach.

Sounds like you are a buyer, so you should know that the buyer's agent has to have you sign a buyer broker, the game changed last year but did it..
