Quote from @Charles Tunnell: Shh!

But for years I was just working hard without seeing any benefit and I had to keep going even though there was no light at the end of the tunnel.  

Due to past poor management of the environmental infrastructure, the river has become illegal to swim in in certain parts, and after rain falls the entire river is off limits to swim or fish in due to the heavy amounts of pollution ending up there that the city has not had the infrastructure to deal with in the past.But this all began to change in 2017, when the Virginia General Assembly passed the largest infrastructure project in Alexandria's history to make the Potomac River swimmable, and fishable by the year 2040, and they have made significant progress recently with the completion of the 2 mile long, 100-foot deep Waterfront Tunnel named Hazel.Named after environmental activist Hazel Johnson, the Hazel Waterfront Tunnel will prevent millions of gallons of combined sewage from polluting the region's waterways.

I disagree--there are more tough times ahead, but as stated above there is light at the end of the tunnel and this time it's not a train. 

Tagging people who have no choice but to believe there is a light at the end of the tunnel is not persuasive.

Yes, someone ONLY focused on MORE cash-flow can have tunnel vision and ignore other pertinent aspects of investing, BUT the 1% rule has noting to do with ONLY focusing on cash-flow.

And when people get tunnel vision for lowest $ down, they tend to not give attention to the revenue generation of it, the operations, and that's a VERY dangerous combination of high leverage and not so-good revenue. 

I don't see any light at the end of the tunnel for affordable housing.

Hopefully this gives you some light at the end of the tunnel.
