If you have average income you got to pay but if you are a gardener they will subsidize schooling fees and meals.

I realize that you're looking for passive income, but I want to challenge you to act as if your next meal depended on the next steps that you take. 

There's usually local REIA groups that have meetings, or meals, etc. 

I know this, I work with one guy that watches how many home cooked meals his landlord makes, how many visitors he has which he prepare meals for.

I suspect most mileage can be deducted (to and from South Padre and mileage to and from each property), some meals when discussing the properties, but not 100% on the lodging since our kids will be with us.

This will keep you healthier and prolong the lifespan of the system.

dedicated phone numbers.. first class check in TSA private clubs.. the Amex Centurian clubs at Vegas etc.. have full on meals if you use those like I do not only do you get the miles but you get good food for free.. and you know how expensive and usually poor food is in most airports.

Unfortunately unlike other people I don’t have anyone to co-sign for me for any of these investment opportunities I could take and my father lives in New York City, he doesn’t like the idea of me getting a property, he just thinks I should get an IT job and pay rent that’s what I went to school for all these years but it hasn’t been easy getting a job so now I’m taking into account that I could Uber and I can make atleast 300-400 a weekend but I plan to do it everyday to get extra cash in, I’m so hungry to become successful I won’t ever give up, instead of saying I can’t do it, I’m just trying to find ways to do it, like most successful people and I know it isn’t going to be easy and I’m living way below my means, my favorite meal is pack ramen now cause it’s the cheapest haha.Anyways my question is in my current situation what would you advice me to do to be able to achieving owning a MF property to do the house hack with FHA loan, can Ubering be use to qualify for me for the FHA loan?

Note: If you go to the same meeting each month, you can do detail tracking for a month, and can use same detail to estimate expense for rest of the year.( If nothing changed)2) Meals when traveling away from home - 50% is deductible unless the meal is provided to the general public (like Open houses) than it is 100% deductible.

Plus although they don't serve meals, they allow you to bring your own from outside.
