Efthreeoh wroteI understand where you're coming from, but "mobility issues" is a really, really wide net being cast and can entail a whole lot more than just "minor aches and pains" that can be remedied with Aleve. It can range from mild arthritis to having a fused spinal column, which are going to result in dramatically different limitations. Significant mobility problems are not at all uncommon in the 60+ cohort so I really don't think it's unreasonable to take that into consideration when deciding the right time to enjoy that roadster or whatever. After seeing both mine and my wife's parents all suffer from mobility problems that absolutely would've precluded a roadster I decided to go ahead and get one earlier than I otherwise might have. You just never know what tomorrow holds.Nearly everyone has mobility issues as they age; I very much do, but driving sports cars (the Bronco qualifies) and riding motorcycles is more important than any minor aches and pains I get from using such vehicles. Plus they have Aleve with the arthritis cap!
The post made it sound like once a person hits his 50's he's ready for the retirement home (automotively speaking). I was just countering that point of view.

G MONEY wroteThis is my plan as well, to acquire 10 more rentals. I bought a duplex in 2021 (Here was my path. Out of high school get into a Pipefitter union. On the advice from my father ( one time I listened ) my first house was a duplex. Lived in 1 and rented the other. To 2 little hotties back then😳😄. Lived in my side for 3 years. Bought another one, rented my original and now had 3 rental living in the 4th. 25jsh at the time. Then I bought my first single family and had 4 rentals. After that , flipped a few and used that for 2 more rentals. Long story, I had 12 rentals. Sold one end of Covid and bought a 458😉. I would not consider myself filthy rich, but I’m free rolling these days. Have a shore house in Margate with a 3 car collection. I plan on selling the homes in about 5 years but rentals these days are gold. None of these kids want to own shit. Rentals are through the roof. Plus, anyone going to college is so underwater with dept, they have no money for a down payment. It’s sad. Glad I didn’t do college. Didn’t cost me or my parents a penny. I was making good money for those years. If I had to guess, I probably make an average of about 7-800 a month on each of the 11 rentals. Plus my normal job. It takes some work early on but you will never lose in my opinion going with rentals. I always do well on taxes with the write offs. I’m going to set my nephew up with this plan and get him into my one duplex.
) that does very well and about to go into my first STR. What class rentals do you have? Do you self manage?
x3sm wroteI self manage. I have a couple of maintenance peeps that do all the fixing/ emergency stuff. I have different classes. Nothing is older than 30 years yet. I’ve been lucky with really good tenants. If they are keeping the places nice and are always paying on time, I give them some money off in December🎅🏻🎅🏻🎅🏻. I’ve had a few bad apples but that’s part of the game. Doesn’t outway the steady flow of cash I have going now, with unlimited credit and always do good at Tax time. Make sure you get a good accountant to help you through all that nonsense. Might actually be selling another soon. A long time tenant wants to buy the place they are in. Just might let them take it. Keep buying bud!!! I think you will be happy you did.This is my plan as well, to acquire 10 more rentals. I bought a duplex in 2021 (
