You'll get some comfort from looking at a graph of historical top tax levels - https://bradfordtaxinstitute.com/Free_Resources/Federal-Income-Tax-Rates.aspxAside from obvious extreme hikes  for WWs 1 and 2 and Korea and Vietnam (seeing a pattern here) and paying for the New Deal in the Great depression - Tax rates haven't changed that much since the tax code went into effect in the early 1900s.Since 1980 ish it's been relatively unchanged around an axis through 3 democratic and 4 republican administrations. 

I've been interested in real estate for as long as I can remember but with the recent occurrence of a milestone birthday, I felt now was the time, finally, to take a serious leap into the field.

Instagram, Twitter, and social media livestreaming are the flashier things right now.Yet it is still the cheapest and best lead generation tool.Hence I am trying to show with numbers, graphs equations doodles?

Yes, That's why our draws are in arrears at each milestone.

@Mitchell Pollard it had to be satisfying to hit that awesome milestone.

it's not something that I track so no charts and graphs are in my possession.

You're right that there are many milestones between here and there, but the journey is worthwhile.

I know a few areas, I'm not sure if there is a graph online that shows likelihood of flood in the area i'm searching.

I think focusing hard on that first milestone is the most important, and will be the most challenging.
