Having the ability to do something doesn't mean it's a good idea. Buying a house shouldn't be taken lightly because home ownership can introduce more problems than it solves. People who can't save up 20% for a down payment and on top of that don't have several thousand in the bank beyond that to furnish the house and still have an emergency fund left over have no business buying a house.

Many people go into buying a house and are living on the edge. If they lost their job they probably couldn't even make it 3 months in that home before skipping out on paying the mortgage.

I feel like if you not putting down 20% and furnishing the house and having enough money in the bank after that to live a year without work then why are you buying a house? Rent something and stack chips and let the landlord deal with all the ownership problems. If my furnace goes out my landlord replaces it same with the air conditioner. If a broke homeowner has that happen they're fukked. Water pipes burst and you living paycheck to paycheck what then?

THIS. THIS. THIS. THIS.

Has any of these books paid off for any of you who bought them yet? I'm thinking about coping a couple of them myself is why I ask.

I'm getting the books. But I wonder how his advice compare to Boyce Watkins or Claude Anderson's advice? More factual? More relatable? More accurate? More "I read this and it actually helped me make money"?

I bought most of his e-books after i got started in my career and began making decent money. Main thing was it helped me change the way i think.

For me the stocks breakdown general business knowledge and real estate sections were great. Got me investing in stocks now. Also it got me in the mindset of flipping my money (the legal route). Even if its 30% a year, im doing great. Off the strength of this series i started following other black entrepreneurs on social media who put out great content.

A year later and i started my own trucking business with 3 other brehs. The worst case scenario is a 170% ROI, cash on cash. With alot more room to grow if we can cut costs, and obviously bring in more money to take more money home.

Even got me thinking of getting on the e-book hustle as well. We all have a story and believe it or not people want to here about the underdog in this life

That post got 30 daps but goes against alot of what dudes on here say to do. Theres countless threads about buying a house as an investment.
I always chalked it up to him being in Cali, and basing his opinion on the housing market out there.

In GA it’s still a great look to own a home, and bank on it appreciating. Everybody can’t be right on everything:yeshrug:i just tuned his take on that out tbh
