I need to make partner, and then let them sell the business at a minimum. I'd like to make partner and see the old guys retire....then I will definitely own property in AZ. I'm going to have to live here for the most part, but my getaway cabin will be waiting. That's probably 10-15 years down the road for that one to play out though. I could see 10% in the next few years and a sale of the company would net enough to pack up and move away...which sounds nice, but running part of the company my grandfather started and maybe someday seeing one or both of my boys take it over would be worth more than anything I could make. Third generation only has a 4% survival rate in the business world, so I need to make sure I fall within that 4% first.
I gotta get out of this house I'm in, wipe out the bills I have and hopefully early next year I can also waste some money for the good of the group.
