Road to financial independence?

[Anonymous]

Hey, what is this with my age?! Yes, I’m 42, but I look like I’m in my late 20’s.

That aside, I understand what you’re talking about Rustico. I’m coming late to the game. I wish I had done a lot of things differently, but now I have to deal with reality as it is. I can’t live in an ugly duplex though. But, I get your point.

The day I get my own 401K I’ll be so happy. I’m already in the teacher’s retirement, so that’s something.

Marion, Rustico is absolutely right, in order to get rich, you have to put up with some hassle. Whether it means living in a duplex or having to put up with landlord issues, getting rich is not an easy path. That’s why many people don’t do it. They have so many reasons – well I have to take care of my kids, well I have to work I don’t have time to get another job, etc. You have to put in the time, effort, and research.

Btw, you don’t have to be a landlord to be able to invest in real estate. It’s helpful, but it’s not necessary.

For me, I’m a great big fan of multi-tasking. Do your day job, take care of it, but have a side operation of real estate where it can basically run itself, and then you revisit it every so often to make sure it runs right.

You also asked about running a franchise operation. I took a look into that awhile ago, but if you think real estate is a hassle, that franchise idea is worse. Real estate doesn’t require as much attention as that. Basically you just bought yourself a job. And with the economy tanking, as you have mentioned, why would you start such a business?
