Investment strategies for quitting rat race

Jaren Smith
  • Greenbelt, MD
Posted

I’m Jaren Smith, a 27 yr old father of 2. I work full time but I have a strong desire to get out of the rat race and develop financial stability and time for my family. I’m looking for direction into where or what I should invest in to start increasing my cash flow so that I can quit my job as a Restaurant Manager.

I already have ideas of what I would run my LLC as and am studying strategies of getting into wholesale real estate. I want to make the best of my time, while I am still working full time, to develop skills and learn financial literacy. I understand it may be difficult in the beginning with the dynamic of my situation, but I am willing and my family is supportive of how this can change our lives.

@Jaren Smith research Vacation Rentals. It’s an active biz but can be very lucrative if you learn to self manage like most of us on BP. A few well performing VRs can change your financial trajectory quickly. You do need capital to buy though. Good luck!
