Would be cool to hear from those who have and how you got started. Were there any pitfalls or things you would have done differently?

I have a buddy who cashed out his retirement savings, rushed into 3 properties that are pretty run down, and now stresses about repairs because he doesn't have the cash on hand.

He wanted to be a slumlord because he didn't want to work a job, over-leveraged himself, and is now stressed all the time.
