Scott Trench's "Set for Life" is for younger investors.

On paper, it sounds like a good deal, but I worry that you are doing this all on a spreadsheet and not in real life.

That ONE will change your life :) GO GET EM.

(If curious, my residential real estate investor clients from 10 years ago [you can find my 10 year old bigger pockets dot com posts :], at the time buying up 2-4 unit properties, a lot of them are now done with the 'human' tenants and want to 1031 into something that is ACTUALLY passive, so yes Starbucks comes up, thus I watch it).In my case I zoomed all the way into a specific brand (which then allows me to make very sweeping generalizations across an entire state -- but still not the entire country), I'm not suggesting you do that, but SOME of the variables need to be narrowed down, before you can gain any useful insights. 

2.) looking for advice on how to deploy 600+ thousand dollars into real estate and start receiving the cash flow from it without having to pull the 401(k) out and swallow the tax ramifications.I currently own 13 units and receive healthy cash flow from all of them, but I am looking to increase my cash flow so I can ease into the next phase of my life which includes work of a different kind but not doesn’t having a 9 to 5 job.Thanks in advance!

@Mark CruseIf you have a lot more going on in your life then don’t respond.

It cash flows a bit, nothing life changing.I bought a second duplex in LA this year that I am currently house hacking (live in one unit, the other is LTR).
