Since I had a brain anuerism and stroke a few years ago and I have not fully recovered yet has given me much more time on the computer and have seen many bad things that you have to deal with to survive.  

It sure has taken a bunch of stress off of me when I had that brain anuerism and stroke and could not walk anymore ever since that happened six years ago totally unexpected.  

I found BP a little over a year ago while medically recovering from a brain anuerism and a stroke and have learned a bunch since then about investing.Always do the math analysis and try to look at your prospective properties  before you make an offer or at least have a clause in the sales contract that allows you some time (about 10 days) to make a detailed inspection of the subject property and possibly back out of the deal without a penalty that will hurt you very much.

However for truly passive long term wealth I feel that searching out those path of progress properties  and either paying cash for them or financing them can lead the sharp investor to massive wealth and returns without ANY other involvement other than stroking a check annually for tax's and maybe hiring a farmer to keep the grass mowed..example is one I close yesterday  37 acres the family bought 27 years ago for 199k  .. we closed on it yesterday for 7.2 million cash to them.. they did not even 1031  just going to pay the tax and call it a day.. now I don't know if 199k invested in say a few rental houses over 20 or 30 year run would equate to an exit like this.. but for this family it cant get any more passive.  

The contractor had a stroke and passed away before starting the work or ordering material.

My dad was struggling health wise at the time, and had a small stroke as I was supposed to get the contract out and start the closing process.

Keep your expenses in a position that you can shave off 30% in one afternoon with some strokes of a pen.

It took a huge stroke of luck to land my first IT job, frankly. 

Her executive functioning was too damaged from the stroke. 

Different strokes for different folks, man!
