Do you guys think its better to pay rent, while you are building up your business(s)? I'm going to have enough money (30k) saved up, due to living at home, to put a decent down payment on a condo or 1-2 bed place. Should I do that or would it be better to just pay rent like normal, and try to use the money to make more money while living off cash flow temporarily until I can find my Fastlane opportunity? I live in northern California by the way, but I'm open to moving to where its cheaper, just as long as it's not super ghetto, I can't be having my shit stolen :(


Please advise, as much as I love living at home (no expenses allowed me to start earning decently off internet) its time to put myself into the real world. And start making moves and stepping up to the plate and take REAL swings. Not just affiliate marketing.
