You can be almost anywhere you please, including at an American Consulate in Mexico after finishing your freaking boat race to Mexico that you didn't bother telling me you were going on when we opened escrow!

Just need enough passive income to get me out of the rat race one day.

The prohibitions specifically cover discrimination because of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, disability and the presence of children.

To leave the rat race for good, some build a portfolio.  

Having a specific plan and being aware of your strengths and limitations is probably the best first place to start, and then it's off to the races!

While having a criminal record is not a protected characteristic under the Fair Housing Act, criminal history-based restrictions on housing opportunities violate the Act if, without justification, their burden falls more often on renters or other housing market participants of one race or national origin over anotherSection 3"A housing provider violates the Fair Housing Act when the provider’s policy or practice has an unjustified discriminatory effect, even when the provider had no intent to discriminate."

What if I were to tell you that there is a way out of the repetitive rat race of morning commutes, office drama, politics, and headaches?

At 31 bought the building to put Big Bobs Flooring into.  14,000 sqft.First apartment building (9plex) at 35 and also race the Baja 1000 and still do that today.

Unless you are going to file some kind of discrimination suit against the bank based on what you feel is arbitrary denial, banks do not have to grant everyone a loan just because they qualify - they just can't deny you a loan based on one of the protected classes (religion, race, etc).

I look forward to making some mutually beneficial contacts and building long term relationships with like minded people seeking financial freedom, abundance and release from the "rat race".
