Started a business at 23 with a partner. Started another business at 26 with a few partners. That one took off, we sold it a couple years later, my minority share was worth about $180k. Took that and got involved in a pretty niche market and have made a killing since then. Building an apartment complex now, long term goal is to be heavily invested in multi-family units and some industrial.

Basically buy at 5-8% below market, and sell at 5-12% over market. Using Zelle and cash deposits. So I trained my assistant to sit at her desk and watch the paxful and localbitcoins account for trades. To verify them and do the transfers. Been doing like 1- 3 bitcoin in volume/day.

Assuming we're doing $19k/day minimum in trades. Making minimum 10%, but probably 12% average. Been pulling in stupid money off this. Keep trades small to limit exposure, and protect from potential scams. Have lost a couple $500 here and there but not a huge deal overall.

Really now days anything I can do to make some $. The businesses besides my primary are basically on auto-pilot. Apartments are being built by builder, get routine updates but nothing hands on for me.

Its about disposable income. Who has more money:

Guy 1 making 180k with a 550k mortgage, 1100 mo car note and $1200/month child support

or

Guy 2 making 90k with a paid off mortgage and home, no kids.

The OP was too specific IMO. I'm not in a particularly GOAT city, but live in better than a redneck area. My COL is literally $1k a month while splitting with the GF, not including groceries which probably puts me closer to $1350. Rounding up to $2000 just in case (this number is definitely higher than accuracy) and we've got only $24k a year. My income is ~$95k per year, gross, after bonuses included. Take out taxes and we're down to $72k. Leaves me $48k in savings / investments / luxuries annually.

Point is some of us are in the in-between. Higher income than average for my area, but the area is not as bad as OP describes (redneck trailer).

How often do you hear this in income threads? Let's break it down for you retards:

Person A - makes $40k

Person B - makes $100k

Now let's pretend that because of cost of living, these two amounts provide the same lifestyle (it doesn't)

Person A - lives in the ghetto/trailer/redneck part of town

Person B - lives in one of the world's best cities

So who's doing better?

Newsflash: the cost of living is lower in your chit tier neighborhood becauseno one wants to live there

COL is legit, but I'd rather take the much higher salary in the nicer area.

I only moved to Texas because they matched my bay area base, I'd never move for a pay cut because they play the COL card, that's the dumbest chit you can ever do for your career and I always laugh when recruiters try that angle

But even with the lower COL here 3 years was all I could take of the weather and allegies

Between cope threads like this and threads about trying to fly in South American trannies to bang it's no wonder why the OP is such a low energy R/P troll. This is like cuck incarnate.

Cuck OP bragging about living in the city where BLM and Antifa run wild. Just lmao. Who gives a fuk if you make 200k a year, you breathe in polluted air and live around liberals day in and day out. I'd rather have 10 acres, multiple toys, and live in the south or midwest where people are real and not try hard *******s like OP.

Financially you'd probably be better off working in the big city and making big money in a high COL area but some people, myself included, just don't enjoy that lifestyle.

Also it depends on the job. Sometimes it works out better to get a medium salary and live in a low COL area.

If you're a homeowner then high COLA can have a positive effect if it raises your pay in your industry to offset it, as you retain that value on your home and recoop it when you sell.

Who the hell is comparing COL between the sticks and NYC? The COL argument mostly comes up when comparing your salary in a major city to one of the retardedly expensive coastal cities.

For example, in ATL, my $100K salary is the equivalent of $200K in NYC, which means I can afford a luxury 1 BDR in a more desirable part of the city, a nice car, eat out at decent restaurants, and still max out my 401k + have additional savings afterward. Compare that to NYC where the $120K my company would give me as a "cost of living" adjustment to work out of that office would entail either much less savings or require me to have a roommate to live in a shoe box outside the desirable parts of the city.

OP would be an okay guy if he wasn’t a liberal soyboy cuck. People like him make living in the city chit. Other than that, it’s pretty GOAT. Just have to make non cucked friends which usually takes awhile considering literally 80% of nyc voted for the corrupt ****phile family Clinton

LMAO at the whole concep of "cost of living" what an ultimate cuckening by capitalism to its bishmade droncels. IT is ingrained in you cucks that there is a "cost" to life, that you have to "spend" to live. That's the ultimate cuckening of life, not realizing that you can live without being cucked by anyone and having to answer to no one.

Free yourself you cucks.

You can make other arrangments, for example I can't provide myself internet by myself. So the're a guy with a small company that provides internet trough anthennas and so on. He gives me internet for free (I had to make my own tower for the antenta) And every week I give him a big box with my produce a little bit of everything. So a part of his food requirements are fulfilled without "spending" and so on.

This, folks is what:

1) Getting angry about negs; and
2) Being a low-income poverty troll

Looks like.

You mad because I spend more on eating out in a month than you earn? Yeah, you're mad, LOL.
