Take advantage of long term investment benefits - stomach the dips/rises & retire by 60, have a maid do my laundry/clean my house/cook my food, live in an area with nice weather, workout every day, ride motorcycles, drive sports cars, do track days, visit Vegas whenever I want.I plan to do this with income properties - buy a duplex, 3-4 unit, and into the bigger (15-20 unit) closer to retirement.Long Beach investors - hit me up!
