Love your wife, but help her understand and see the financial benefits of sacrificing now for the comforts and freedoms that early sacrifices will make in the long term. 

She then met with her financial advisor, and immediately called me to complain that her future lifestyle was going to be “compromised” by the terms of our divorce. 

I am obviously conflicted with the moral side of pursuing legal action here, but understand that people can do untruthful things when it comes to financial gains. 

Prioritize your financial stability.

Working with AvantStay caused me large ongoing financial losses.I signed on with them to manage two of my properties in vacation markets.

But you also need to check on them for updates so you know how your property is doing financially.

It could be as soon as next week that I'll be back in Austin, so I wanted to see the likelihood of doing a single flip, for the first year, and what this looks like financially over time as we increase.

Another would be you are building other units next door/nearby and you can chalk this build up to the "learning curve".I didn't see a CFO on GLH or GLC's website, but I'm sure you have someone doing this type of financial analysis for your developments?

I think what most clients have difficulty understanding in the beginning is the difference between interest rate arbitrage (which the income snowball is not) and what a cash flow momentum strategy is. 

I would think a lot more about the financial part of this.
