[QUOTE="highgrit, post: 1018139, member: 14198"] Dumb luck and hard work for me. Made $600.00 bucks fishing one night and quit school the next day. I bought my first house when I was 20 and paid it off in 3 years. Then I bought the duplex next door and moved into one side and rented the other side and house out. A school teacher rented the house and stayed there 18 years now that's dumb luck. And then I started buying lots where Burt Reynolds had a ranch in FL. And then we built a fancy house with a pool out there and kept a few lots on each side of the house, dumb luck again. We sold the house for 5 times what we had in it, and sold 2 of the lots for 1,000 times what I paid for them. Wish we would of kept the other 3 a few more years. I still own the land where my first house and duplex was. Tried to keep them rented out but the deadbeats kept tearing them up and not paying rent. So I had a guy bulldoze the buildings down, and pay a man 400.00 per year to keep it bush hogged down. FL stinks now, property taxes on the raw land is almost 4k a year now. The land is on Hwy. US 1 the main drag on the east coast of FL. It's for sale or lease PM me if your interested in it, it's a great location for a restaurant. I live in GA now simi retired raising cattle and deer. I try to make enough off the cows to pay for my deer hunting, feed and bullets. All I can tell you is Good Luck. [/QUOTE]
