Does the possibility of medical marijuana (in 2020) give us hope at all for our economy to recoup? 

For example, a medical bill that you thought insurance would cover, but didn't.

I will be doing more buy and hold rentals in Indy as I have a pretty good medical sales position that offers me some good cash flow for investment.

Are people traveling to this area all year round?

Hope to see you all there soon (after I get back from travelling for work)

I am not familiar with your area, but here we have EXCELLENT industrial base, and each town employess at least 500 at medical facilities. 

Im a full time flight attendant and travel with work more than 50% of each month.Id like to buy a duplex out of state, using an FHA loan, and occupy one of the units for the first year. 

I am a computer geek by training, but I am interested in generating passive income so that my family can have financial security and the opportunity to travel and have adventures (without the day job). 

medical bills or stuff like that is fine.

By that I mean you figured out what real estate can do for you (allow you to "retire" early, allow you to spend more time with your family, allow you to travel, etc.) and because of that, you are totally invested in the idea of REI.
