Life is truly weird sometimes, cards get dealt, and you gotta play the hand you are dealt.I'm a big fan of Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad" books, and within' the philosophy, Robert teaches that there are 4 quarters to the "game of life".Age 25-35: 1st quarterAge 35-45: 2nd quarterAge 45-55: 3rd quarterAge 55-65: 4th quarterAge 65+: OvertimeAge 70: out of time...The goal of the this "game" (in order to win) your passive income is greater than your expenses - putting you what Robert calls "out of the rat race".If you think about it - many great sporting events are won in the last quarter - and given that you are still in YOUR FIRST quarter, it may give you some solace and encouragement to realize that you still have time to completely rebuild and succeed!

This is not a game or sport.

I mean when you compare combat sports to "normal" sports, its pretty rough.Yeah if getting hit is not your thing and it happens, its definitely something that will make you contemplate spending more time doing it.

I have been in the sport nutrition business for 7 years and want a change.

Last month, my son was teaching his sister how to make paracord bracelets to sell (he has a deal with a few local sport shops that buy and resell his bracelets).

But, I guess you need to clarify what "red flags" are to you.Someone could be killing it/raking it in with sterling credit, income, etc. for that all to change when the cards fall if they are behind a ponzi scheme or even an honest profession that fizzled out (e.g. an actor, model, lottery winner or sports star who blew threw their cash.)Thus, a good tenant in the past could be lousy in the future and vice versa.

Amusement parks, Major sports teams, Cultural events, etc.World class universities and medical careTransportation hub serviced by every major airlineLowest crime rates in the countryAll of those things help properties maintain value, and keep the demand for real estate strong.

I know you like the sports analogies Jay, a good coach selects talent, you can teach fundamentals of how to carry the ball but that doesn't make a star running back.

Find the personnel manager at companies that have a good paying work force, the goal is to get your name in the grapevine of industry, public and private organizations and government service areas.Know yourself, you likes, hobbies, sports, education, religious and social niches where you feel most comfortable.

I currently have a full-time job as a software developer and have 3 kids in sports, so I can't spend too much time rehabbing unless I sub out the work or find a partner.What brought me to become a member is listening to the podcasts by Josh and Branden.
