“Take this job and shove it!” ~Johnny Paycheck
This infamous phrase may have its genesis in a 1970’s country song, but if you're working a 9-5 job, the temptation to shout that line at your boss as you run out the door to “freedom” has certainly crossed your mind more than a time or two.
Many new entrepreneurs come to the world of investing to get OUT of their job, which is an admirable goal and may in fact be the best decision long-term. However, making that decision too quickly can oftentimes force you to “eat your seed” rather than planting it, significantly slowing your progress towards true financial independence.
Those who are trying to balance investing and a full-time job might be surprised to find that they are actually in the majority, as nearly 75% of independent landlords (and many flippers) are pulling the same double duty. So, rather than encourage you to abandon your consistent & dependable W-2 income, we want to show you how to maximize that income (along with your time and other valuable resources), so you can “bloom where you’re planted!”
At this month’s meeting of the Professional Investors Guild, we will be taking a closer look at some of the strategies and techniques that you need to build a real estate portfolio, or flipping business, while also working a full-time job. Some of the topics to be covered include:
-How to Leverage Your Job for Additional “Seed”
-The Importance of Organization & “SIPs”
-Tools & Resources to Increase Overall Efficiency
-Effective Time Management to Maintain Work/Life Balance
…and So Much More!
This is another can’t-miss meeting, so grab your smart phones and mark your calendars! We’ll be in DESTIN/FWB on Tuesday, March 19th at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. ALL WORKSHOPS start promptly at 7 PM with networking and registration beginning at 6:30 PM.

Post: Creating Passive Income

- Developer

Multiple streams of income should be the goal of every wealth-minded individual and savvy entrepreneur. However, if those streams are limited primarily to “active” sources of income, the entrepreneur has simply created multiple full-time jobs, escaping the 40-hour work week for a more taxing 100+ hour work week full of stress, headaches, and a cap on his or her income.
True financial freedom is achieved when passive income outpaces living expenses, giving the investor freedom to pursue his or her passions or to accelerate their wealth creation with more aggressive investing. With a focused plan and a commitment to consistently planting “money seeds” in the right soil, any investor can create passive income that lasts for generations.
At this month’s meeting of the Professional Investors Guild, we will take a closer look at the principles of creating passive income, as well as discuss the strategies you need to begin to implement in order to see those principles come to fruition in your financial life. Some of the topics to be covered include:
-Passive Income vs. Residual vs. Recurring (& Why It Matters)
-Creating Passive Income with “No Money Down” Real Estate Deals
-Passive Income’s Secret Weapon: Favorable Tax Treatment
-How to Avoid “Eating Your Seed”…And Much More!
If you understand the importance of creating passive income, then this is a meeting you won’t want to miss! Grab your smart phones and mark your calendars! We’ll be in PANAMA CITY on Monday, February 18th at the Palms Conference Center. ALL WORKSHOPS start promptly at 7 PM with networking and registration beginning at 6:30 PM.

Oh, web search, "Sell my house fast Gulf Shores" or other nearby city, and that will generate some wholesaler websites too. @Jared Irby does a bunch of wholesaling in that area too I believe, so connect with him. He's a heavy-hitter, big-baller, top-level kind of guy. But he's an Alabama fan, so you have to try and look past that. :-)

@Daniel Cox IV The best way to connect with wholesalers is to call on any "I Buy Houses" signs that you see in the area, check Craiglist and Thrifty Nickel for the same kind of ads, or attend your local REIA. Certainly signing up for Bigger Pockets alerts in that area can yield some deals and connections with wholesalers as well. Best wishes!
