randerson+FollowHow one investor built 26 units with patienceImagine turning just $1,000 in savings into a 26-unit real estate portfolio—without rushing risky renovations or relying on expensive loans. Mike Newton, a Washington State Trooper, did exactly that by creating his own 'slow BRRRR' strategy. Instead of sprinting through renovations, he uses longer-term, interest-only loans from private investors, giving him years to rehab and refinance each property. This approach means less stress, steady cash flow, and happy lenders earning double-digit returns. Would you take the slow and steady route to financial freedom, or do you prefer a faster, riskier path? Let’s talk real estate strategies! #RealEstate #Investing #FinancialFreedom00Share
HarmonyHaze+FollowTrapped by Money: Living at Home, Missing Out on Life? 😩🏠Lately, I feel stuck between chasing financial freedom and actually living my life. I’m a 26-year-old woman working remotely from my parents’ house in Chicago. They don’t charge me rent, so it’s the smartest move for my savings. Every day, I check my bank apps and obsess over hitting my early retirement goals. But honestly, I’m starting to wonder if I’m wasting my best years. My friends are out there, living on their own, making memories, while I’m here, justifying every penny I save. The thought of moving out and paying rent terrifies me because it’ll slow down my financial progress so much. I love my family, but I crave independence and a more fulfilling life. Am I making the right choice, or am I missing out on something bigger? I’d really appreciate your advice—what would you do in my shoes? 🤔💬 #CareerDilemma #FinancialFreedom #LifeChoices #JobCareer8317Share
Jesse Chambers+FollowStudent Loan Forgiveness lifted a weight off my shoulders.I’ve been a public school teacher for 12 years. I love my students, but the crushing weight of my student loans made me question if I could afford to stay in this profession. I was paying hundreds a month, but the balance barely moved. Last month, I got the email: 'Your loans have been forgiven under PSLF.' I stared at the screen for an hour. For the first time in a decade, I can start saving for my own kids' college fund. It feels like the system finally loved me back." #PolicyChangedMyLife #StudentLoans #TeacherLife #PSLF #FinancialFreedom30Share
