On my current trajectory, I will be the beer-drinking-est, TV-watching-est, credit card debt-ridden-est dude in this hemisphere, and that's not where I'd like to be, thank you very much.Reply here or DM me if you're interested in having a conversation about this.

Right about then, I discovered something that changed everything about our trajectory.

It can definitely change the trajectory of your life.

@Mateusz Prawdzik Not knowing your market or area, would you say that becoming that "quality band name" is going to be challenge with multiple barriers, or is it going to be relatively easy given your current trajectory?

Identify around 10 acres of undeveloped/partially developed land in my home state (Texas) that is within the trajectory of projected urban growth.2.

Turning someone from a life long renter into a home owner, and providing the sense of responsibility that comes along with owning a home can alter the trajectory of a family for more than a generation. 

I'd imagine over the next few years i'll follow a similar trajectory to yours with my asset allocation.

The only insurance company I could successfully find was StateFarm and it seems there prices are on an upward trajectory?

Seems like you could put together a set of metrics that you could use to give you the trajectory of a neighborhood and from that anticipate correctly what the "tipping point" for investment would be.Currently my strategy is to put in the work to find distressed homes in healthy neighborhoods that are a potential for value add, but I'd also like to look for things in up-and-coming neighborhoods.I was thinking about this for flipping because I don't want to get stuck holding a property that won't move, so I understand that many of these things might be better for a buy or hold strategy.

Changed the trajectory of my life, for sure.
