Quote from @Aaron Zimmerman:

Congrats on your success!! That's an amazing result and some great appreciation in such a short time. Plus all the cash flows too. Well done!

Thank you. We didn’t start until we were in our 40s. It’s admirable seeing so many young people getting started in their 20s and 30s. We put in a lot of sweat equity and still maintained a decent work life balance with our full time work and family. It’s certainly a journey! We feel that it’s one worth taking.
