Market 2 Update 02
Here is an interior shot of the bathroom. On the right is the inside of a new closet off the dining room, which you can see in the bathroom. I also got the wiring done and installed a new light switch and an outlet down below.
Famine Over!
On another more personal note, last night I went to walmart, and was able to buy everything I needed, and even treat myself to some dunkin donuts coffee. I didn't even really get much food, but all the stuff I'd put off for ages, the expensive supplies kind of stuff. In a nutshell, I've been driving on fumes, eating chicken noodle soup beefed up with some instant mashed potatos, and on extreme budget for the last 4 months. So being able to finally just buy what I needed, and to have all my utility bills paid and not delinquent, even before I got my paycheck felt incredible. I walked out of there feeling a sense of pride and gratitude. I've lived this up and down life now for 12 years, but something was different this time. I felt like it was actually THE LAST TIME I have to feel this way.
By that I mean I think I'm coming up, and staying up. I've had ups and downs, but I don't think I'll ever go down that low again. Not to say that there isn't going to be challenges and some struggles ahead, but I hope I'm never down to just 250 a month income again, lol. All I had was the positive cash flow of my one rental the last for months and hope and prayers to keep me going. Now I have a base salary for fixing houses, three rental incomes, and my computer business is finally profiting. It broke even the first few months, just paying the utilities and rent, but now its been doing pretty good for a part time biz. So barring any more disasters, I think I'm set now to build my rental profile and have a consistently growing income each year as long as I keep adding rentals and work hard. But first I need to pay off all my bad debts. Good debts are debts which make you money, bad debts are ones that cost you money.
