Why workout when you can take a blue pill and it will burn your fat away while it helps smooth your skin.  

As we use to say on the farm "there is more than one way to skin a cat" (yes ... that is a disturbing phrase and no ... we never skinned cats!).

They and I think no investment is safe unless there is skin in the game.

If you are hard-core of just have digestive, skin, or allergy issues go for the second 2 and see if you find a difference:3.

The big money is owning your own business but a whole new set of issues.My daughter just graduated from K.S.U in Business she has a job waiting for her in pharmacy sales.I am of the mind kids should not have a total paid for college they need skin in the game.Both my kids have some debt from college not a lot.I told my son you are a broke college kid live like it you will look back at this time with great pride.He still drives an old pick up making good money most of his coworkers drive new pickups.I did not get a degree out of 5 kids heavy with Engineers.I do think the right degree with a good work ethic is the recipe for success.

For those saying find someone with money, that is great and all but most people are not just going to give you a bunch of money with no experience or skin in the game.

Once you're savings rate climbs up over 50% and that 4K gets up to 15-20 then you can really jump into RE with some skin in the game. 

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

When people do not have any skin in the game, they are usually abivalent to caring for someone else's asset (or honoring a written contract, for that matter).
