Move to a job you enjoy, or slave away at one that increases income so you can invest, or create side hustles.

Enjoy the ride, its a fun one!

My take on this discussion is this:Anyone can take whatever time and effort they want to argue that it doesn't / can't work (it does / can), or you can just do it and enjoy the benefits.It's not applicable to every situation - stop trying to force this square peg into a round hole.There's no "secrets", no "magic" to it.It's meant for situations where the way it works can help someone achieve their financial goals. 

I do enjoy the interface and their ability to show owner data without having to skiptrace.

Better get a good teacher, and BE TEACHABLE....Because this business is big boy/girl stuff for real!

Outside of real estate, I enjoy surfing and learning new instruments.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

Ask them if you can speak to some of the borrowers they have lended to find out if they enjoyed working with them

Others get so good at selling information that they forget about the actual real estate deals.Glad you enjoyed the post. 

However, I have noticed I don't really enjoy the finding deals part.

If you enjoy the hands-on work, keep in mind that managing as a GC might pull you away from that.
