I decided to stay in the apartment and funnel all my extra money into buying a rental property. It has been really stressful. I took my whole bonus, and some of my retirement and borrowed some money and bought a rental property. I am wanting to know if this is really the right way to go. I could have bought a house or a mobile, but I chose to stay here for now in my apartment. I need to know if this is the right choice to make. I am going to ask future me how things are going with this option. I walk down the stairs again and open the door. I stand in front of the blue light tunnel. I close my eyes and think about the future me early to mid June. I stick my hand out into the light and step in. I step out into the concrete. I am by a pool again. Future me is still reading. Did I accidentally go to the wrong one? I walk up to future me and ask"
..Hi did we buy a rental property?" Future me pauses her reading and sets the book down. She is staring into the pool and doesn't look up at me. "
We bought a rental property."
"Was it worth it I ask?"
She looks down at the book. The book has a bookmark in it. She pull it out of the book and looks at it. It is a check for some amount.
"This is our first rent check from the property we bought. It's not much but this a start."
"Are the kids happy?" I ask
"Yes..the possibility of having a house is still there and that is good."
"Are we doing ok money wise?"
"Yes, I'm getting a promotion so that will help."
"What made us decide not to buy something?"
"There wasn't a need to compromise what we wanted. Either have the house we want or stay."
"Where did we buy a place?" I asked
"We just needed to decide that was what we wanted. It will come up."
"OK thanks!"
"No problem." Future me says.
Future me sat back in her chair and kept reading. I looked at the pool and the boys were playing happily in the pool. I stepped into the veil and back to home.
