Hey all,My name is Tony, I'm 35, just started actively pursuing financial independence and have been really hammering away at learning everything I can.

In the assets I am considering - the seller is typically selling because they no longer have the time or energy. 

While we here on BiggerPockets certainly have financial goals in mind, local populations all over the world have an opposite and opposing one. 

Anyone know how to account for CapEx (setup as Asset accounts) expenses in the cashflow?

Based on the info in your post, my recommendation would be to turn these assets into well oiled machines and max out their NOI.

they usually say stick it in the bank.. so you can offer them a nice return above bank CDs and on an asset they already know and like etc..

How do you define financial freedom?

All those people you perceive as broke ,financially illiterate or irresponsible live somewhere unless they are homeless.
