Most of the wealthiest investors that I work with or have known have very little to any long term debt everything is paid for.  3 I can think of  One sold his garbage company for 75 mil.. the other was a President of a fortune 100 company that when it went public he got major golden parachute liquidity event.. then another was inherited but all the Real Estate was paid for and there is a boat load of it..

I'm doing Corporate Housing / STRs in Durham, NC, close to the downtown and Golden Belt area.  

I own a 2/1 condo in unincorporated Jeffco just outside of Golden, CO proper. 

I know James Murphy at PMI Phoenix Golden West - I know he cares and is a solid guy.

Then youre golden.

After my reply, I got an email asking me to watch a 90-minute webinar.I watched it — there were a few decent nuggets of wisdom, but half of it was padded with long stories from his childhood.

I'm a professor of advanced financial planning for the graduate program at Golden Gate University, a CFP (Certified Financial Planner), CFT (Certified Financial Therapist), APFC (Accredited Personal Financial Coach), and soon to be EA (Enrolled Agent of the IRS).

If anyone has market recommendations, resources, or just a few nuggets of wisdom from your own experience, I’d love to hear it.Thanks in advance!

Quote from @Patricia Andriolo-Bull: I don't allow pets per association rules but I travel with my large Golden Retriever most of the time.  

For years, it was seen as a golden ticket to building wealth and generating significant cash flow.
