BUDGET - Just like diet & exercise.

But start to get out of the SAD (sad american investment diet).Real Estate Investments: Cash flow and appreciation aside for you as a high income earner over 400K AGI its going to be more about saving taxes.

This quitting W2 to survive on REI reminds me of the FIRE movement or Paleo diet.

He said I would have gotten more at trial but most of that would have gone to him in legal expenses ;-) and anyway, I had properties to buy, I didn't want to be stuck doing interrogatories and depositions.
