I didn't become financially independent till I was in my mid 40s after having a major financial setback during the covid, I'm glad i'm on my feet. In addition to buying my second house, I'm also making money on a monthly basis through passive income, and I've also met some of my goals. I really hope this motivates someone to know that it doesn't matter if you don't have any of these things yet; no matter your age, you can start today. Investing can help you change your future!.

[@Alexedmartin.]

Any investment tip Queen? I would love to know how you made it this far

[@skoopqueen]

I wholeheartedly recommend Regina Louise Collaro, a distinguished financial advisor based in the US. Her collaboration with an international organization has been pivotal in my financial success. Regina's expert guidance has not only supported me consistently from educational investments to planning for retirement, but it has also played a critical role in significantly enhancing my wealth. Finding the right financial consultant is as vital as choosing the right life partner-both decisions shape your future profoundly. I feel incredibly fortunate to have Regina as my financial consultant, who has truly transformed my financial landscape and helped me thrive financially

[@Alexedmartin.]

I value your recommendation. It's challenging to locate a trustworthy person. I could really use your investment advisor after seeing how much money you've made through investing. If you don't mind revealing her information, that is.

[@skoopqueen.]

you can easily find her information by doing a quick search. Feel free to reach out to her directly with any questions you may have.

[@sonlee8066]

This is a shocker seeing Regina Louise Collaro is being mentioned here. I always had mixed feelings about hiring a lnvestment advisor. For the record, I started working with Regina in 2019, and she manages about 70% of my lnvestments, while I manage the other 30%. My philosophy is that I care more about my own money than anyone else, but she made me accept that they have wealth of information on current conditions and future trends

You will only learn by doing. Get started today. Learn as you go. don't be paralyzed by fear. You will happier getting started and getting momentum.

[@funyogi516]

Do it. Do Airbnb. You will not regret it. It is 100x better than long-term tenants - especially if you are just starting out and can self-manage the guests, basic maint. and cleanings, etc. You will get a wonderful return on your investment, with the benefit of having more power and control over your own property as there are minimal issues with tenant rights/limitations/squatters etc. My husband and I started Airbnbing our basement 3 years ago and now have 4 Airbnb units, and a 5th being built in the backyard of one of the properties. We focus on mid-term rentals (most are 2-10 month bookings). It involves minimal cleanings, and our NET profit before tax is $5800/mo for these 4 units. 94% avg occupancy rate. I probably spend about 10 hours a month marketing, managing the guest communications, and doing the cleanings myself, with my husband doing the home maintenance interior/exterior!

I tried to send you a private message about this video but it was impossible aside from an email. I didn't want to embarrass your speaker but heck, read this and erase it....I'm writing you because for some reason I felt you deserve better and are trying your best. You deserve good people around you that will support you. You are a good speaker, clear, concise, and articulate. However your speaker is very difficult to understand because of both how she talks and what she says. Kierra is not professional. She is inarticulate, mumbles, jumps around from subject to subject, and all be it good info it was presented in a disorganized and ill prepared manner. I'd suggest you transcribe what she says and be the speaker yourself. Given I truly cannot understand 20% of what she is saying should be reason enough.(She runs her words together by rushing, drops words off at the end of sentences, and is not clearly pronouncing the words she is saying. I can tell you are a hard worker and want to make something of yourself. Sometimes you have to cut the cord and set boundaries in business. I respect what you are doing and that is why I'm telling you this. Thanks for listening.
