I think real estate is the best way there is to craft a comfortable future for yourself!

A lot of successful STRs have fluctuating prices, which are meticulously guaged by the surrounding events and markets.

Feathers can be of any kind I reccomend a craft store for bolder colors

You finally decide what you wish to do...dive into it..become obsessed...don't get caught up with what everyone else is doing...perfect your craft, focus on your strengths..and when your considering ways to increase the service you provide..use your marvelous mind to visualise into the future and figure out how your fields business will be conducted in 10, 15 years.

We live for $3,000/month in Cuenca, Ecuador sending our kids to private schools, eating great food, buying private health care, drinking local craft beer, and taking excursions around the country. $60,000 to $100,000 per year and you can live like a king/queen here and many other parts of US and the world.And, something many people don't consider is how much less things costs when you have flexibility of time.

I am a retail manager for a big box craft store in Oklahoma.

When you are telling them you are putting yourself ahead of them [maybe unconsciously] and they feel threatened and jealous and they are coming from a place of fear and thus say things disparaging or negative or stupid.If you were telling someone that had 100 units or 1000 units you would craft that message differently and their response would be different, probably more positive.Unless you really need their input, lips quiet, money talks.

Something funny happens when you mix anger with love for your craft.  

Its unlikely that this deal will be the one but the only way to find the one is to be out looking.  4) 100% Ownership Goal: I have crafted a plan to set aside additional resources to ensure that by mid summer I have funds on hand to cover a down payment. 

No matter what business you're in, if you get good at your craft you will almost always get better financial results with the owner running the business than an employee.
