for me i get up and work on what is going to be most profitable in my mind that day.. or when your doing what I am doing  building homes in 3 states and funding rehabs in 14 states.. you just react to e mails and crisis's as they arise every hour.. 

Investing into high ROI assets both inside and outside of retirement accounts is the ideal situation, in my opinion.

Ideally it would be free, and would allow multiple categories so I could separate my two business, healthcare, and personal. 

I’m interested in learning if my REI income (Sch E) could be shielded by contributing to a Solo 401k - or if I them open myself up to SE Tax; or if I should just focus on my Sch C RE agent income to make those contributions.

IE for me I want low equity, ideally under water must sell and I offer to take over their mortgage payments.  

I’d like to invest $100k total so ideally I need to borrow $80k.

Working 30-40 hours a week might be ideal while you learn a trade or take college classes, or even get a degree.

I ask because I’m looking to buy an apartment in Oakland, CA to live in at first, but I’d like to rent it out eventually and ideally not have it be subject to rent control.

I'm ideally looking to maximize the equity value in the home and trying to figure out the best moves to make as this would be my first time.
