Hey mate,Congratulations on your super high income.I'm biased so take what I say with a grain of salt lolBuy 3,4,5 turnkey SFH and get your feet wet with real estate investing.From there you can either purchase more and scale your portfolio further or start looking at a different asset class like multifamily, etc...Something in this order:1) SFH2) Multifamily3) Commercial4) Hotel5) CasinoIt's nice to dream and think big but that's my opinion how to start small and progress to different/bigger asset classes if you have such a desire.Or, you can keep busting your A$$ for the next 4-5 years and save every penny.Park the savings in 30 treasury bonds and go to sleep in the Bahamas 😁Just my opinion and wishing you all the best with your endeavors 

 You are a great inspiration to those of us who are just getting our feet wet.
