You can't BUY this kind of peace of mind. You can only EARN it
One flood + 2 car accidents = grumpy JJ
Yep, a flood. Just as we were going to open the Kingstowne Family Life Center, a water main burst in Sears and flooded our end of the mall. Enter a 2 month renovation delay.
Yes, car accidents plural. First me, then my hubs and kids. Too much to go into detail in a public forum, but the good news is we're all alive and kickin'. I have the best friends in the universe and I'm so humbled and honored at how they rallied around me during this time.
Thus, my move to the Shreveport-Bossier has been a wild ride. What have I learned??
Since my time for business endeavors has been limited over the last 6 months I'm really treasuring the freedom brought by these 17 years of investing. It's not just the money. It's the peace of mind that comes from knowing your passive investments come in each month whether you're going out to work or home tending to sick baby. The value of having a solid side business and sound real estate investments for me is that I'm able to focus more on family and not worry so much about money and finances.
If I can encourage you to invest for NO OTHER REASON, please consider this one: Tomorrow is not promised. You don't know what will happen to your family tomorrow or even 10, 15 years from now. All you can really count on is that storms come. And when they come, it's AMAZING to have a strong umbrella built from investments.
You can't BUY this kind of peace of mind. You can only EARN it through hard work, investing in your personal growth, and taking action to build your passive income.
Blessings,
JJ
By the way: we connected with several great investor groups here in the local area SBREIA (which has a website), RE360 (which you'll find here on BP), and Building Wealth Together, which you can find on Meetup.
