Guess who is very happy for our frugal lifestyle now?

I am not so naive to think this is the be all to end all and that I can quit my job and still be able to maintain the same lifestyle.

I took on driving Lyft, so I could create the schedule I need to make my real estate investor lifestyle work.

Although since I started at 18 I know no other life.. so its just a lifestyle I like moving money and creating opportunities for other investors.. who in turn have their own dreams and wish's and they help their communities.. the by product rehabbing shabby homes is just that... but at the end of the day most everyone is doing this for the income and the ability to pay the bills.. 

That word will utter through my consciousness always.

She wants to move closer to home in a cheaper location where my mom can babysit for her and she can afford her lifestyle.

Not to say that it isn't because, plenty who earn that top 1% income, often inflate their lifestyles...but if financial freedom is your goal...your income matters especially in a HCOL area. 

If you don't have a lot of flexibility with your lifestyle and people there you can trust it's probably better to go another route. 

Turnkey investing is a LIFESTYLE, not just some word you throw around.

As someone who appears to be value conscious why did you buy a new-ish car rather than a panamera whose depreciation curve had flattened out like one 4-ish years old?
