What kind of a lifestyle do you want?

My podcast (103) is on transient life style , buy and hold and self managing, if you want one to start with :) If you see a post you enjoy check out the persons signature.

Below is an update to assist investors on whether Cleveland’s low priced multi-family market is compatible with both their personality and lifestyle.

I used to be pretty 'religious' about checking the Federal leading economic indicators, released by the Dallas Fed, if my memory serves. 

There were frustrating years of bloodied knuckles, a very frugal lifestyle & friends/family/colleagues telling me that I will never make money from 'those slums'.

As for a downturn, I don't see one in the next decade as austin is building a "real" economy and matching lifestyle which will continue to create jobs and lure people here from other parts of the country.

People tend to flock to real estate because it is easy entry and provides hope to those who either hate their job or want some sort of lifestyle they are not able to get with their current job.

Instead you increased your life style.

I have a life and lifestyle that I'd never had achieved from my corporate job (and a net worth multiple times theirs because I took risks and received rewards not available in most corporate worlds). 

@Jay HinrichsPoint well made: you can sweat the cheap property if you are hands-on with booths on ground..no matter how much success you make out of it, its just a "job".... unfortunately, I am not in RE for a job..If its not passive and gives me time to live the lifestyle I choose, then its just any other job...Thanks for your  usual deep insights!
