ECONOMY
I have been listening to Marketplace on NPR. There is a lot of economic volatility due to tariffs and wars. This could lead to a recession or at least an economic downturn. I have tried to learn several different work skills so that I can pivot and transition if need be once I’m free. I will not be caught off-guard an unable to earn a living wage. I will ensure that I keep multiple streams of legitimate, passive, and supplemental income. I am still reading this Flipping houses book. I’ll try to partner up with an experienced contractor or just hire a solid one to help me with my real estate goals. I want to have a lot of coals the fire for income. If one coal goes out I’ll still have more to fall back on. This will take hyper-focus and discipline. What choice do I have due to my late start and advancing age. Honestly I’m scared but also excited. The key is that I will not hesitate to ask for help from family and friends. Thanks…LB
