Real Estate Tips:
Keep in mind that there are investment opportunities past just traditional stocks and bonds. Commodities are an asset class with both risks and rewards but can provide hedges against inflation. Also look at real estate income trusts to invest into the real estate market without being tied to individual pieces of property. Make sure that any money you invest is done so with a specific goal in mind. If you just want to preserve capital and beat inflation a little, stick with money markets and bonds. If you are saving for retirement far in advance, look for growth stocks. If you want income streams, look for dividend stocks and real estate income trusts.

No wonder she thought the prices for the food were cheap, she's from New York. $10 for that sandwich and $6 for the soup were not not cheap to me.
Don't waste your time. ..I live close to DC..trust me it a dump like most cities
If you want cheap gold food, buy in the food trucks near the monument building
150$ how is that possible.
How did you find such a cheap AirBnB near the national mall? All the decent ones I've seen are at least $80+ a night and even then you get murdered in the cleaning fee.
Hey, do you have any discounted link for the greyhound bus to DC? The link that you shared is not working. Great video btw.
Greyhounds to DC are the worst. Trust me, you got the rare good one
Thanks for making this video. I am looking for creative ways to grow my DC centric travel channel and I appreciate your remarks.
Do you have a link to the airbnb?
Her Spanish is really good?
