    Debt Elimination while entering Fastlane

    HOT! 
    You could buy some mobile homes in parks at 1k a piece and re-sell on a note with $500 down and $300 a month for 48 months. This is how I started many years ago. With 10 of these you would have 3k a month to pay down your debt. It is simple, but not easy. You will have to work to find deals and...

    Every book out there teaches you to leverage. I don't like leverage, It can get you in alot of trouble. I only pay cash and then after some time your cashflow starts to build on itself. You can use that money to buy more assets and it begins to snowball. Freedom ,time and family mean the most to...
