    Selling all your guns? Sounds stupid right!

    So I significantly down sized my gun collection and bought 3 houses in texas. We did the Dave Ramsey thing. Cleared all out debt in 4 years. All of it. I was never going to be able to but a house in sonoma County. So we sold all out assets. Including guns. I kept 5 . Now renters buy my guns for me. I have only bought a few. I need to stop. I want to retire in the next 7 years before 50. Food for thought. Any questions hit me up or better yet look up Dave Ramsey.

        The OP should probably use more clarity in saying "renters buy my guns". I will assume that this means that renters pay you rent and you use any profits from that rent money to purchase a gun. I doubt that the statement meant that renters in Texas buy guns for you directly.

            We bought houses. So you are correct.

                  Real estate has always been good investments mostly. However, for CA, that's getting to be less and less so, especially income property. This state is too hostile to landlords. I got tired of dealing with tenants.

                    Not rich, still in debt, but I DID stay at an AirBNB in Texas last week, and for a few more weeks, minimum... while the wife sells the house...

                    Isn't THAT better?
                    I know I feel better...


                    I've been here just over a week, and just got around to this, as the A2 lower parts came in a couple days ago...

                    The pistol grips I kept from the Bullet-Button Rifles, as I KNEW I'd have use for them...

                    The bird-cage "FLASH SUPRESSOR" (AKA Compensator) MIGHT go on with a crush washer this week too?
                    I need to shoot-up, and post my shot-up Cali-plates for funziez!!!

                    OP, my friend left VA and moved to Maryland for the stupid gun laws they passed,
                    and had a squatter stay in her VA house she rented out after they stopped paying, due to "squatter-rights" or some such nonsense...

                    She had to pay the mortgage on both her house, and the squatter's house while they had to file paperwork to kick them out.

                    I hope you don't get hit with a scumbag renter, that stays beyond the lease/rental-agreement.

                      I did this a few years ago by selling my entire guitar and amp collection. Well, I kept a couple guitars (2 acoustics, 2 electrics) and got rid of everything else. It wasn't enough to go and buy three houses, but I am now debt free. No car payment, no credit card debt, no student loans. Now just paying cash for grad school and saving to buy a house once I leave this state. I will admit, I've bought a couple more firearms than I really need in the last year, but still no debt.

                        I guess I have been in CA too long.

                          You forget, as you HAVE been in Cali too long (like I was, living in Kommiefornia my entire-life), and now that I am FREE, and living in a free-state, with laws NOT based on complete in utter-incompetent-ignorance of politicians, pushing the same, this is what is the best defensive firearm for ALL Americans.


                          This, in reflective-Silver, is going on my back windows this weekend...

                              Stickers like that on cars or houses are a flag that says "valuable items inside", especially in a state where criminals are more likely to know what they signify.
