Ocean facing property in either California or Florida, to short-term lease and then retire in and sell to other rich people from all over the world.

If you were a business tenant (likely single tenant operator) looking at a landlord (who they often think are rich) you likely would not want to comply either.You bought this at auction likely at a reduced price.

Uhmmmm....the coffee example was to point out someone can do something stupid and still sue and get rich.

At this point, I've read and took notes on: the book on rental property investing, " estimating rehab costs, " managing rental properties, rich dad, poor dad, and I'm about halfway through Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, RepeatI'm also around 200 episodes in to the BP podcast after I wandered over to the youtube channel from Graham Stephan's - I basically listened from graham's interview forward to the most current podcast, and then backwards from the same episode over the last 2 months.I've been practice-analyzing 3 or so deals a day for the last 20 days, and will start looking at properties this weekend.

I go for base hits and a “get rich slowly” strategy.

I was recently introduced to bigger pockets and rich dad poor dad a few months back from my SGT in the Army.

A wise investor will not try to get rich quick with shortcuts.

I just finished listening to Rich Dad Poor Dad and am currently listening to The ABCs of Real Estate Investing and I gotta say I've been inspired.

My first step towards this goal to buy and househack a multifamily property by November 2020, taking advantage of the FHA 203k Loan for a lower down payment and being able to make improvements to the property.I've read a few books (Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing - Michael Blank; The Book on Rental Property Investing - Brandon Turner; Rich Dad, Poor Dad - Robert Kiyosaki; and Quit Your Day Job by Oliver Trojahn), and listen to the BiggerPockets podcasts and webinars, as well as various YouTube channels.
