I take it to mean I - and my team - can go to doctors appointments at 2pm, or that thing at my kid's school at 4:30pm, or get in a bit late sometimes coz I do that 7:30a workout class that clears my mind - without having to be chained to my desk for specific hours. it's all about output and impact. if you're producing both, have at it.

Seeking advice / recommendations:
Hello everyone, I'm trying to get into real estate investing. Some of the books I've read have talked about buying multi-unit properties and utilizing investors to get the necessary capital. Does anyone have experience in getting investors? How do you identify investors who may be interested? Are there any sites where you can invest in or post real estate investment opportunities?
Thank you in advance
