your continued support i know i miss last week was in austin with brandon turner at the rye summit

hanging out with other real estate investors talk and shop trying to figure out how to navigate was in Austin with Brandon Turner at the REI summit,

hanging out with other real estate investors,

talking shop,

trying to figure out how to navigate this economy.

And the consensus is it's hard.

So if you're out there feeling the pressure right now

of an economy that's not really moving anywhere,

I've continued inflationary pressures,

pushing expenses up while income's not

keeping track. You are not alone. That's what we're all dealing with right now, just trying to

hang on to what we got. My two cents here is if you're someone who struggles with FOMO,

if you have a lot of people telling you, hey, you should be doing more, you should be growing,

you should have more units. That may not be the case. It's easy to take on

more units or easier when the economy is crushing it and your equity is growing and your rents are

increasing and you're making more money at work. So you got more disposable income to put into

real estate. But right now that's not the case. In fact, the whole world's kind of sitting

under the cloud of this AI tsunami that we're all waiting to crash on our heads and see what it's like.
