If you are in front of a seller that has motivation due to distress, financial or health hardships etc, you are in a perfect spot to be able to help them.

What has been holding me back is my health and age since many limited partners hesitate to invest their money with someone who may not be around long enough to see the deal through.

Thankful for health, family and friendships for sure. 

The economy is quite diverse, health care and manufacturing are significant, but no single dominating company or industry, which is something I really like, Unemplyment is exceptionally low at 2.6% to the point where companies complain that they can't bring people in due to a lack of housing.

I obviously chose Rich Dad Poor Dad, and she chose one about emotional health (which, admittedly, was a necessary growth area for me at the time and still today). 

@Jack B.It sounds like you need to have a sit down with an accountant to determine what your actual cash expenses are for you to live a life that you want to live.Then you need to work backwords to see how your real estate / investments can get you there.It sounds like you have a lot of rentals / properties / leverage.Figure out how many rentals and at what leverage would give you the optimal cash for you to live a comfortable life.Remember to factor that if you no longer work that you will have to pay for your own health insurance.

At this point, I basically work for my health benefits and RSUs - I can live off of my cashflow if I tightened my belt a bit, but I enjoy my job and I can use nearly all of my W2 earnings to fund my real estate businesses.10.

There may be similarities, but none of them were caused by a health crisis, resulting market boom, real-estate boom, consumption boom, supply chain falling apart.  

Get great insurance, an umbrella policy, and never have health and safety violations and your investing will be cheaper and easier accounting.

Is that a signal for long term health?
