Interest Based Income - part two

Part one was about some basic math for interest based income.

Now the fun part, how would you could even start getting $100,000 let alone $500,000 saved up?

Yeah, this is the horrible part because most things these days are not designed to make it easy to save money. I have never rented so I can't guess on that type of budget. I do own a house though and that does open a door for me to get started saving. If I chose to sell my house I could in theory make $100,000 after everything is said and done.

I have not put a lot of money into my house but with just the base improvements I could see getting $100,000 from it if/when I sell. 

Could I do more improvements to my house? Of course. I would love to replace all the windows and the siding. But I will never see that money returned to me. It could cost $25,000 for all the windows and $20,000 to do the siding. Then another $10,000 for the driveway. I would just never see that $55,000 investment ever again. Not to mention I do not have the money to even consider doing them.

I will probably look into adding a pull down stairs for attic space. That is closer to the $1,000 range. The potential attic space wouldn't be to much but it would be worth it. Especially considering the only other access it a tiny little square. I still can't figure out how my house inspector got through it because I was cramped when I went through it.

The reason I could even hope to make $100,000 after selling is because I got a very affordable house when the interest was super low a few years ago. I got very luck and I know not everyone will want a cheap house in the middle of no ware.

I have also already updated the electric. That was a nightmare of tracking payments so I'm not full sure what the true total was but it was between $10,000 - $20,000 which was only because he was good friends with my realtor. The work took two years and was worth it.

Never buy a house from a church. Do not do it.

The bad part of that is that my tiny town hasn't seen an increase in prices. It is stuck in a price range and I would have to get very, very lucky to get more. It's just not an area that has houses that go more than $200,000 for my size of house.

On the flip side, if I wanted to rent out my house instead of selling? I could list it as is for renting as a single family house.

If I wanted to rent it as a two family, I would have to rip out two doors to make it a legal two family rental. Then I would have to figure out what to do about laundry for the second floor. So a two family is out.

However! While renting out my house would be ideal, it is only possible if I could find a management company in my area. I know they exist but I have yet to actually find one. My town is full of rentals and I can not for the life of me find any info online. I don't have any idea who in my town I could talk to about it because my town is a little bit weird about some things.

Which brings me back to square one of selling the house once I am ready as being the best option. Pending locating the cryptid management company in my area.

So, why go over all of this? Because it shows just how much a little thing can snowball and branch off into so, so many other things.

The numbers that you want to see (based on what I want to rent out for)

Single family rent per month =$1,400

Single family rent per year = $16,800

Two family rent per month = $2,800

Two family rent per year = $33,600

And that right there is the magical $30,000 a year just without starting with a million dollars first.

What people don't talk about is that until that money is in your hands, it is not and will not ever be a guarantee. 

Part three is going to be going over that very valuable point of view.

Liziqi is back!

 New 李子柒 Liziqi videos! This is not a drill!

 

 

 

 

I am so excited that she is back! And I am hoping everything is going well for her. Her last upload to YouTube was three years ago. Yesterday she posted two  new videos and then today there was a third!

Because I am in the US I don't know all the local details but what little I have heard is that she was able to do a legal action against her old agent/distributor/?? for control over her brand. From what I heard this is not an easy thing in her country. Last year she made an announcement that she was back and I'm very happy that she is.

Liziqi's videos are very cottagecore idealistic fantasy China edition. Do I still binge watch them? Yes, yes I do.

This time I hope her experience goes much better and that she has as much enjoyment from making her videos as /i do when watching them.
