It is the safer bet for me and seems to be the quicker way to get to financial freedom.

Currently I am working for bank of America in the small business department, where I read biggerpocket articles during my down time and that is pretty much how I ended up here today..I believe investing in real estate will put me in a position to have the freedom to do what I want, when I want with the people I enjoy most.  

How do I find out my freedom number?

My main goal is to generate cash flow from multifamily units and move forward to financial freedom.

I believe that REI will allow me to end that frivolous cycle and achieve the financial freedom we can only dream.

This will allow me the FREEDOM to do what I really want to do in life-travel.

Hello my name is Ricardo GonzalezI’m from San Antonio,Texas and i just recently became a Real Estate Investor.I attended the GURO seminar’s which were extremely helpful and then came to find bigger pockets and found out there’s no need to pay for 25,000 for becoming an Investor.well i should mentioned the way i came across real estate.It was due to my father’s passing he left me his home,which is my childhood home,in order to validate the WILL we hired a real estate lawyer to probate my father’s WILL.There were many other thing’s that happened in between.We then got a light bulb and realized my father left us a gold mine,we just need the right tool’s.Were now on the way for a equity loan on our existing home and using it for our very first SFR/Commercial purchase.Again with the seminar’s and daily podcast of BP we put all the knowledge together.so here i’am a new member to bigger pockets,looking on the forums. and let me tell you it feel’s great to have such an great opportunity for a legacy,job freedom,create cash flow,new friends,create wealth,I’m so looking forward to being a landlord and all that come’s with that.

I really want to start in my real estate investor journal to reach my financial freedom and move another state but before that, I have to resolve a couple issues I have with my actual situation.I have a couple questions if someone can advise me1.

I love the freedom of not having to maintain my current place, I can move anytime I want, and I'm not paying an absurd mortgage for a SoCal house.

So while an IRA does offer you more freedom with investment choices, if you ever want to contribute more than $5.5k you'll need to go back to the Roth 401k.
