Creating Wealth is the ability to do some thing or invest your dollars and make your money make money while you sleep.

I have been reading books and i want to be wealthy.

So I am in a unique situation currently because I don't own a home and live with my parents (common cultural thing for South East Asians) and now they are moving to Virginia but aren't selling this home.

I hung my hat with KellerWillaims simply due to the culture and honestly the proximity of their local office.

I think as you educate yourself and perhaps the reason you are on BP is to learn from experts, smart use of leverage and ensuring solid cash flow to weather downturns is how big time wealth is created and gets you there much faster, nor paying all cash.

Hi Mark P,I posted an article here a month ago from the Canadian Real Estate Magazine titled, Investment strategy for Canada's Wealthy.  

It's more of a cultural thing than a normal cleanliness thing, guess.Getting to know and network with a REI Investor would be a bonus, but obviously not required.  

Kicking out the poor also kicks out culture.

You don't know the areas, language, culture, demographics, trends, municipality, local laws, taxes etc.

See Jay Z and Beyonce are just like regular Americans....except their mortgage is about $250,000 a month...They are reportedly billionaires but..I guess they wanted to lock in that low 4% interest.It would be pretty fascinating to see the financial records and income streams of some of these ultra wealthy folks.I wonder what type of real estate they might own besides personal residences if any.
