While I have been fairly successful as a software engineer, I'd like to increase our wealth beyond that which I can achieve by working for someone else.

Most are some of the best people you will ever meet.The more you learn and attempt to understand the target market, of any income level or lifestyle, the less challenging it is to achieve success.This is my interpretation of almost 50 years of experience.

Education is key to making your success easier and enduring.All personal achievement starts in the mind of the individual.Plus, think of all the people you will meet.

From what I have read, this seems achievable, but I am skeptical as this sounds too good to be true.

It makes things real and more achievable.

If your plan is to own them free and clear, it won't take very many to achieve that goal.

That's my tip.Definitely set some goals and work towards achieving them.

. : Brian made reference in an earlier post to sharing cash flow with his investors after an 8% return on capital for them was achieved, and I recall his share was 30%.

I also have another $40,000 in stocks that could be accessed to achieve goals.

Paying them off is a whole other hurdle and to create 1 mm in net cash flow would take quite a bit of capital to achieve.
