Of course you would be selling 100's of properties a minute and pulling in a large enough income to single handedly pay off the entire US deficit afterwards so you'd have paid off your (or your parent's) 2nd mortgage and be living in a mansion on one of your estates on the French Riviera and across the globe.

Purchased our first true purpose bought Investment property that brought us up to 6 doors.Completed first JV bringing us to 8 doors8 days in Spain and a month in Australia for Sari and I... thank you Canadian Navy for the work trips!! 

I've adjusted thousands of insurance claims up to 1.1 million dollars in size on everything from houses to the John Hancock Building and Navy Pier in Chicago and I will make you look like a rank amateur.
