In this episode, Clark and David discuss the challenges and considerations of parenting while also pursuing a successful career in real estate investing. They explore the concept of why some delay parenthood to focus on financial security and career growth. They also discuss the impact of having children at different stages of life, including the trade-offs between time and energy.

The importance of prioritizing time with children and being present in their lives is emphasized. Real estate investing can provide financial freedom and flexibility for parents. Investing in real estate at a young age allows individuals to build wealth and create passive income streams that can support them when they become parents. Real estate investments can provide the financial stability needed to take time off work and be present for their children.

The journey of real estate investing can be divided into three stages: investing in your 20s and 30s, building a portfolio in your 40s and 50s, and transitioning to a semi-passive approach in your 50s and beyond. Real estate offers various opportunities for income generation, from active investing to passive lending.
