However, let's not forget, America is a capitalistic society and businesses (for-profit) are created to earn a profit for value-added services to consumers.

Not so when you're in your own business (you have to get there & make it through crashes and shifts).My electrician was trying to get my son into the trade, bragging about how he made $100k last year for the first time.  

@Diana FrasierFoundation shifting is pretty common for San Antonio. 

With this shift in careers, I am concerned with my ability to get approved for a loan.

There are so many names I could list from podcasts, to linkedin connections, instagram accounts etc who have impacted me to work towards this shift in Q4 of 2019 into 2020. 

Prepare now so your exposure is less (husbands job) and then look at doing something.When you do sell take advantage of the 1031 exchange to shift your holdings and increase cash flow without paying tax on the profit from the sales.

They lasted less than an hour.My worry is that the house will be rented out with day/night shift workers, and this is the time of year where limbs fall and we get alot of rain. 

I'd be interested, but working 2nd shift (2-10:30 M-F) puts a crimp on my availability.

I think by shifting what you're giving, you're sacrificing on both of these fronts, and I'd suggest you read that book as in my opinion, you're making a mistake.

So bottom line, look things they do not align with your views and how you perceive being a good member of a society.
