Looking For Change

Man I am ready for a change.

I'm at about year 2-3 of almost being full time. Yet not being full time. I am going to clarify what being full time means to me. I earn enough to pay my bills and have a little extra with only 1 job.

As mentioned Previously I'd like to start investing. To do that I need enough income in which I can qualify for certain programs.

Its nice to be considered but it's tough to be so close most of the time. I know this is a horrible grip. We're in tough times and here I am complaining that I'm working to much / to often.

Most of my generation we wait for change, we're looking for change. For some reason I am guessing my father and grandfather never really waited for change at my age. They made it.

I too plan to make the change. I am going to get things going.

My skills are simple, I know a few things. Media and Real Estate. So most of my actions and movement are going that route.

I'd love to get a radio show going, partner in some real estate and find funding for a management business.

I'm looking for suggestions, ideas, and motivation that I can use or pass along as well.

What's Next?

What's Next?

Should be an easy question. I mean I'm 26 married and I'm employed. What more could a guy want? A lot is the answer.

Love my jobs, dig what I'm doing. But I want more with less work. SOOOOOO what am I doing to make it happen.

Well trying to get Full time some where. Then I'm going to get INVESTMENT properties. Yep I plan to become a land lord. The key reason I'm looking to do this is because I believe that with passive streams of income I can retire earlier and also live a less stressful life.

She's not pregnant but once my wife is. I want it so 1 of us can raise the kid(s) and have us still be able to eat. Old fashion but that's okay.

How do I hope to achieve this tricky dream during the great recession, with the housing bust, and lending freeze? Any way I can. Private money and any other way I can go at it.

I'm about to get my Realtor license here in Texas. Pending educational and other background check. (EEK!) Then the ship of my life is going to get sailing again.

I'm going to try to update and take part in this more often. But I'll try to keep it more ranty and personal. If you'd like to follow my real estate journey or once I start giving Real Estate based advice follow me at http://joenickelsrealtor.blogspot.com/ that is where I'm going to try and have it all focused.
