If your plans for the future are crushed and you feel like giving up because some dude on a web forum like me (whatever my "stats" are and what's in my profile) told you they were unrealistic, maybe I'm right and maybe I'm full of crap.My wife and I are a fantastic example of how real estate can be a thoroughly viable option to change your life and find a way out of the rat race.

I changed careers into something that has given me more freedom (realtor) but as I don't have enough to quit I still have a few toes in the rat race.

The thing I always wanted to be, was a Horse Trader.

House hack, but it's not escaping the rat race, just trading one race for another.Buy a 5 bedroom, live in one and divide the others in 1/2. 

What I see happening is the beginning of a race to the bottom .

You know, for once the deceased horse has been adequately beaten. 

It's a culture of death, it consumes human soul's and cares not for color race or religion, it is an equal opportunity destroyer.

I used to love everything about rentals and houses and remodeling and thought this would be my casual way out of the rat race.

And in some cases that could be true but in many the person that sold the house is going to lawyer up and your off to the races.

This is the second thread in the last week regarding wholesaling with members making personal attacks.Let’s be mature here or refrain from posting.Now, can somebody please call animal control, this poor dead horse has been beaten so long and so many times!
