I don't remember the dollar amount, wasn't huge, but it was a lifeline I would wish later I had back.Then I breezed through the next 8 questions, only using my ask the audience for a question about Broadway or music producers, and since I don't follow pop culture much, and the show is taped 2 blocks from Broadway, I figured that was the time to use that lifeline.Come to question 10. 

Study the last real estate correction (and pretty much every one in recent history) and you'll learn what happened to investors that got in late in the cycle and used short term, adjustable instruments like HELOC's.

I also founded a record label in 2012 which has started seeing interest from the likes of Virgin EMI and Universal Music. 

They used their HELOCs for frivolous vacations and car purchases but when the music stopped and all of a sudden their payments (in addition to their first mortgage) increased (maybe even doubled), they were unable to pay them off and thus had to foreclose. 

@Logan Hassinger My SDIRA is used as a debt instrument and has a guaranteed return.

Leave the speculation to those with big cash reserves that are able to be without a chair when the music stops playing.

Me and my wife own  Vendetta Entertainment a creative production company for commercials, photography, music videos and fiction content.

It has been so instrumental in our investing journey, and in my growth as a real estate agent.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I cannot stress enough how instrumental BP has been in even getting this far!

The OP has options up to and including contacting financial attorneys and instruments regulators such as the SEC.
