@Joe Robert. I firmly believe everyone striving for financial independence should own both stocks and real estate. The percentage weighting of each asset class as part of your portfolio will then be up to you to decide. At least with stocks, when the market is plunging, you can sell, albeit at a loss. Lots of people couldn't sell their real estate, couldn't afford to sell in 2007-2011.

For this reason, It's important to have a solid support structure (financial consultant) to guide you through especially in asset picking. I operate with (REGINA LOUISE COLLARO) an investment advisor who partners with a licensed wealth management firm. For the record, the experience has been the best for my finance. She is quite popular for her services so you might have heard of her.

In a closed end structure who protects the investor. In both structures who protect the businesses. If I was a small business owner there is no way I’m signing a deal that allows you to walk away with all profits after being so hands on. I would negotiate a piece of the pie for the end of the sale. That way it gives me a “grace” period to adjust after all the changes.
