Also - what is your lifestyle life?

The ideal lifestyle I would like to create is one filled with passive income.

. :) I know I need to do some calculations, and I'm new at this, but I'd love to hear any feedback for someone like me for whom the Poconos make the most sense lifestyle-location-family wise.

Now we have a detailed plan on how to scale up and a healthy respect for the game and the lessons that each phase will teach us.Imagine what your portfolio will look like in 5 years think about the smallest unit in it and go out and try to get the best deal you can on THAT one tomorrow.Hope it helps and good luck!

So there you have it.Happy Healthy and Prosperous New Year.  

Invest for lifestyle, don’t sacrifice lifestyle (too much) to invest.
