Ok I have been doing some serious thinking. I had a goal of buying a house by the time I turned 30 and I am 27 right now. I have over $20 G's right now in stocks so I can buy a house at any time. My friend told me I basically all ready accomplished that goal so there is really no need for me to buy a house right now so I should make a new goal.
So my new goal is to make my first million by the time I am 30.
So last week I had the idea of getting my realestate license but I do not want to hussle houses and deal with people all that much. Then my friend told me, why dont I just become a stock broker? And now that is a great idea.
So that is my new plan. I am going to become a stock broker this year, flip that 20 to 40 then flip 40 to 80, 80 to 160 and so on.
The only thing holding me back is me. So now I wont hold myself back any longer.

Anyway, I HATED owning a home. I didn't even have it for a year before I went back to apartment living. There were joys of having a home, but there were a lot of things that I couldn't take care of on my own. And the constant cleaning of SO much space... the lawn / gardening (I had a fortune worth of landscaping alone and have never been one with a green thumb). And never mind shit breaking. The toilet in one of my bathrooms started leaking around the bottom, where it was sealed into the floor. Had to have the whole thing taken out and fixed. Ugh! You'll notice from reading my journal that I can be pretty ditzy. One time I was stoking the fire in one of my fireplaces and the log fell out and scorched the carpet! You shoulda seen me dancing around trying to get that hot log back in the fireplace before the whole place burned to the ground. lol!
So, anyway, the next time I buy a house will be when I can also afford to pay people to take care of it for me.
Heh.
Your stockbroker idea seems like the way to go! I'm looking at getting back into the market in the next 6 months or so. Let me know how things go!
