  2. Like you, I took at >$115K from my taxable account to buy a 4-plex, so my income just now equal to last year as I had to rebuild my portfolio. I'm amazed how fast the ball is re-rolling again. :)

  4. I make $20 for a 20 minute survey!

    Guess what? This is exactly what major companies are paying for. They need to know what their customer base needs and wants. So large companies pay millions of dollars per month to the average person. In return, the average person, myself included, participates in surveys and gives them their opinion.
