This isn't that hard to do if you understand all the moving parts.The system I use, and the source I have, was actually designed around making this concept work...like a charm.Let me add this.  

That said, I am significantly more business minded than she, and one of the concepts that was under fire last night, was the idea that you need money to make money, so in the beginning you need to put all of your money into your business, but her concern is many "rich" people never flip the switch and talk the talk, they're always concerned about building their estate larger and larger.So I understand this is a very personal question, but I wanted to get some thoughts as far as how most of you reconcile the two.

I was in the same position so I decided to go with my gut and purchase a property without telling my spouse because I believed in the concept of real estate investing and I new it would work. 

All of the concepts sounded great but the actual money seemed so far away.  

When you say "I would rather increase my income then have to live in such a small space." your not grasping the whole concept of the movement. 

a new concept in todays societywork you butt off and get wealthy slowly

@Jeremy Vogan   Morning Jeremy,, out of sheer curiosity how do you set up these guarantee's do you establish some sort of reserve accounts and have third party reserve study made then fund it  ( like a sinking fund) We do this on HOA and condo projects that I owned.Interesting concept from a rental stand point, and investor standpoint..

., how can I introduce this concept to the real estate industry?

There are other options available too, but since the seller is nearing foreclosure, you should be able to "sell" her this concept quite easily, especially if she understands she gets nothing if the bank forecloses.  

So far I understand all of the concepts of wholesaling and I am trying to put at least one property on contract asap.
