All demo by me and my daughter.

They have a daughter who would qualify for financing and has the means to help in an emergency.

After all, if you are working 24/7, and you never get a break, you are just going to get run down.If you find you struggle to mentally unwind earlier than you’re used to, try some tricks, like putting away electronic devices an hour or so before bedtime, reading a book right before bed, and making sure your room is very dark so you don’t get distracted.ExerciseYou don’t need to take up marathon running to get the benefits of a consistent exercise routine.

I'm not sure what that will take at this point, but in a few years both of our daughters will be done with college and off the payroll (with any luck :)). 

I find that endurance athletes are equipped with key behaviors that position them to succeed as investors:Long term orientation Recognition that there will be good periods and bad periodsAppreciation for consistent, incremental progress over long time periodsPerseverance/grit/determination Mental toughness Laser-focused on long-term goalsIntrinsically motivated (with intensity)Apprection for hard workI’m a lifelong marathoner (Multi-time finisher:  San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, Portland, Big Sur) and investor and believe that participation in endurance sports can teach us many things about the qualities required to succeed with investing activities over the long term.

Check out David Greene's book on Long Distance Real Estate Investing if you want a good mental primer on getting out of your local market...

Some people just depend on help, because they are physically or mentally not able to help themselves.

I have a daughter going to college next fall in WA state and am thinking of 1031 ex.

Just the last few days it's wreaked havoc on me mentally.

I just pulled a carpet and laid a floor in my daughters room yesterday, legs and back are sore as heck today.
