Believe me, I like money- or at least the freedom it provides- and I certainly don't want to undershoot the mark.

Apparently they don’t believe in the notion of freedom of speech or understand that truth is an absolute defense to defamation and so they have sent this over in an email:“CGR is also aware that you’ve published defamatory remarks in the landlord forum of BiggerPockets.com.

Wish I could claim all the credit for using this effective illustration, Joe, but this chart is what @Scott Trench uses to explain his approach to financial freedom in Set for Life. 

Also, one of the things I talk about a lot is that it is really hard to 'save' your way to financial freedom.

Hoping to forge new relationships and continue learning and expanding my way to financial freedom.

I work full-time in the bay area but I would like to freedom to move back to LA if this current job doesn't work out. 

You would lose Many freedoms you enjoy now by renting 

My end goal is to reach financial freedom through rental properties (10k net a month in passive income for the time being).

Tenants that pay on time:)family, friends, freedom, still being an active BP poster (BP hasn't kicked me off), personal ownership of machine guns:), free and clear rentals, a loving wife, no attorney bills:), a shot of Baileys in the coffee every morning, grandchildren, everything but not necessarily in that order!

I'm in health care and maintaining full-time employment.
