So I'm reading through this Reddit article. It was posted a few months back and it's referring to an individual who had pulled all their mom's money and put it into her self-directed IRA account. And they really didn't know exactly what they wanted to do. So they ended up buying some rental properties, thinking that that would be a good investment, that they could get that passive cash flow, building some assets. This is the biggest mistake most people make is they jump into real estate not knowing what they don't know. They realize that Tenants don't always pay, things break, the cash flow is not always as good in real life as it is on paper. One of the smartest things an individual could do upfront is to become a passive investor. The most profitable things they could do is to take that money and invest it with a company like Direct Funding Resource as a passive investor, get monthly dividends, and have a safe, secure retirement compounding and building.
