@Evan PolaskiThat makes sense, thanks for your input, I’ll just keep hammering away and stashing cash here and there and investing it.

@Trent Egenlauf Not sure what your current stash is, but on this list are 7 currently banks offering rates matching or exceeding current inflation rates, but with different minimum balances.https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/best-high-yield-interests-savings-accounts/

Horses stashed in the basement are also a problem.And yes, have had both and numerous other hidden pets when there were no-pets policy in place for parents.

I would stash that 3K/month until you have a larger pot to pull from. 

I'm fearing they are just gonna keep the money until I can evict and then they'll have a nice stash to put down on another place and make off with 4 or 5 months rent owed to me. 

I'd suggest continuing to stash cash and dive deep into the education process. 

Cash caches: Some people are in the habit of stashing cash or traveller's checks in various hiding places.64.

If you have $20K stashed away you are definitely not looking for a huge purchase with either CASH offers or even financed offers might be scarce, depending on where you are looking.

lots of properties you can get in the price range you are looking or just really comes down to the type of property and area you want to stash your money in.

I second moving home with the family and stashing cash.
