We never had a wedding. We never went on vacation. We didn’t buy a big or new home. We rented for a looong time. We stayed under our monthly budget, shopped at thrift stores, and made sure groceries were on sale. I drove my run-down minivan everywhere. We didn't have family to "help" us. Many Christmases were just for the kids. It was just US. So we saved what little we could to invest in our real estate business. Eventually, we bought a fixer-upper to live in, and we stayed the course. We always said, 'One day, it will all be worth it. The pain, the losses, the sacrifices, the hurt, the lost friendships, cutting out toxic people and family, the unknown… all of it. And now, I can honestly say—it has been worth it. Don't let social media fool you. Nothing is perfect. We aren't perfect. Knowing someone is by your side with the same goals and ambition makes a world of difference. Communication, forgiveness, and love are key. Never give up. . . . .
