A friend down the street grew her 6 plants plus her husband's 6 plants.

I'm an investor in central Jersey, mostly working in Somerset county, but grew up in Middletown.

As I grew my portfolio, it was always done with PITI and I even started off with the idea to pay them off quickly to get higher returns at the end of the road.

If you grew up in a household with an unhealthy relationship to money it is even more difficult to overcome.I have come to believe that we no longer live in a financial setting where someone with limited knowledge is able to invest in a few mutual funds and a couple of rental properties and forgot about them long term.  

Maybe an index fund would be a better choice until your capital grew sufficiently to sustain a rental through a hard year or two?            

I recently grew a relationship with a local homeowner and was able to get his house under contract.

My dad was a cpa and I grew up with tax strategies in my dna, so to speak. 

He grew up in Phoenix and had moved out of town.

Grew up in WA :)

She grew up different than me.
