why can't you survive in the corporate world?

Im probably just too proud to change. The shit I saw at Amazon was sickening. I don't want to become the kind of person who is happy to make that wheel spin round. I don't even know if it's possible.

I’m not sure where you are situated or market, however 2 years ago I relocated 2 weatherboard homes onto vacant land in a cheap area.
Approach people who are looking to knock down their old homes and offer them next to nothing to take it of their hands, provided it’s on stumps and weatherboard.
Most times you can get a house for under 10k or even free if you’re lucky. Relocated the house onto land purchased, set some money aside for renovations and you could come out with a hefty profit margin if you pay attention to costs and market.

Oh damn, I never considered relocating the home what kind of ROI did you get doing that?

Great idea, thanks!

I never had any interest in money until realizing I couldn't survive in the corporate world. Im trying to get started in real estate with 150k. I've been reading up, but the information is endless. My first thought is to flip houses, build up a bit more capital, and then transition to rentals (or maybe REITs?).

Cheap properties near me are mostly around 300k. I can buy manufactured homes for 50-80k, but I haven't looked into whether those things can be flipped yet. Since I don't have a job, I doubt I can get a mortgage so that leaves auctions, maybe? Someone in my family with lots of experience is willing to help me learn how to flip, but I need to make the initial deal.

Any tips?

I think for now, REITS are a good place for your money. Flipping/renno etc easier said than done.

Dipping hard.

Let's hope this is a quick precursor to a bullrun.

It may well be. I'm not really a chartist, but lots of comments out there about finding a new base etc. Also some speculation of whales "bringing down the market a bit" so as to broaden the base of new investors able to come in etc. Who knows. For me its really an "all or nothing" hedge bet on a range of possible future scenarios.

It's getting back on track now. Plenty room for more growth and profit I think.

I'm hoping bitcoin cash and ethereum moon soon.

Why would whales dump? They want price to go up and are actually accumulating. Only reason to dump has been to spook the market into a sell off to enable them to accumulate more.

If you believe one of the long term possible scenarios, in the future anyone who holds a single bit coin would be rich and protected for life. If holding more then could be rich beyond belief. Not saying it will happen, but it could. Which is why it makes sense to at least hold some santoshies. Whatever you accumulate now could be worth years of spending power in the future..

Only thing with this is the whales need other people to also own Bitcoin. What's the point if they are the only ones who have it? Then it becomes useless. If you have a currency and own 99% of it it is worthless to the rest of the world. So the whales would be smart to not accumulate too much otherwise they will kill it.

^^^^^^^
And maybe the bankers become whales - because they want to kill Bitcoin.

Bitcoin cannot be killed. So bankers, being bankers, need to find ways to profit from it. Which they are doing. Almost anyone in the banking and finance industry already owns some personally. That should tell u something...
