Excellent overview and analysis, Delles! I totally agree that you have to find the investments that work right for you and your temperament, as well as your long term goals. (We tried the Rental route -- *shudder* -- never again.) It sounds like you're focusing on Interest. I hope you write more about that in the future.

I'd be interested in your thoughts on https://medium.com/illumination/our-house-pays-us-a-monthly-dividend-3c3c39760f0a
