I also currently have 2 rental properties (1/2 of a duplex and 1 SFH) I currently have about $400k in equity in the 2 properties and they generate $2k/mo net income (before repairs)How would you invest this $500k if you had a similar goal as me to reach FIRE status asap? 

Also, the annuity payments include return of principal, so there would likely be a little bit of capital gains tax every year.When you couple an intermediary installment sale approach with a separate monetization loan, you may be able to get cash at closing that you can use to re-invest and still get tax-deferral.

Monetizing is very easy with multiple options.The best thing about these 3 skills? 

Learning at the front end equips you with a toolbox of skills and abilities to monetize more opportunities that may otherwise pass you by.  

This will elevate your stature as a professional and open up a lot more opportunities for you to monetize deals you can’t buy or wholesale.

I found a wonderful pic of Monet's kitchen.

make the podcast ad-free, sponsor free, and interviews onlyhelp a bunch of people get rich without monetizing????????? 

In the meantime if you are in a ghost-centric town you could potienlly monetize your haunted house!

So how good of a business coach could I be if I can’t even monetize my own knowledge?  

It's really a slow way to go and if speed is important to monetize your opportunity then alternatives to QTA is preferable.
