Hi James,Thanks for the reply, I have actually started following your YouTube Channel and watched a number if your video as so far, they have been very helpful.

I've been a reader for a couple of weeks now after having found the Bigger Pockets YouTube channel a while back and from listening to the bigger pockets podcast and I have to say that I'm extremely impressed and proud that such a great real estate investing community exists! 

My goal is to get put of rat race ASAP, so may be this is the right choice?

Goal is the add value, get most of the money out, hold for cash flow? 

Essentially, you have to figure out your circle of competence, your goals and objectives and liquidity constraints.

My main goal is to have passive income and become financially independent.If y’all can give me a few tips on how to m started and what the first steps I should take that would be awesome.

Plus, I would love to talk with someone that could help me strategize better financially to get to my goals quicker.

I guess the goal would be to protect assets from taxes in the self Ira as long as possible.
