I bought and sold oil and gas leases and mineral rights with a couple of partners, similar to how a real estate wholesaler goes under contract on a house then flips the contract to a house developer for a profit rather than developing the house themselves.

That business took off and morphed into a much larger operation under the umbrella of a hedge fund-backed operator and I resigned due to a major falling out with my partner about a year ago that spiraled downward, and realizing I made/saved enough money and passive income to spin off and do my own thing.

I'm owed a lot of money from a couple different people over the next couple months so I am going to work on making sure that all that pays as agreed and nobody fucks me over. after that, I have some lingering title issues I have to cure for my royalty package so everything is on autopilot and paying me what I'm owed.

after that, I have people on me to make the lightning strike again so I'm going to figure out whether there are any margins left to be made given the bubble that's inflated since I started. I also want to work on becoming a slumlord.

I have a goal of $10k or more per month passive income by 40 so I retire young and travel. I'm 33 now. I think I can do it.

I'm also 33 and that's pretty much my goal (retire by 40) too. 10K per month passive should be easy. If you can accumulate 2 mil in investments you should be able to hit that no problem. I want about 20K per month passive by 40 because I have kids and I like to travel and eat at nice places. Good luck to you man, hopefully we both make it. Sounds like we are on the right track.

nah man, that's not the aspiration

the aspiration is the freedom to do what I want without having to exchange nearly all of my waking hours for money

I would have loved to volunteer to do disaster relief in Houston, for example, but I don't yet have the freedom to do that. I want to travel and have the freedom to stay longer than an agreed upon amount of time RATFACE 9000 allows me to have.

shit like that.

this type of business isn't like being a lawyer where there's constant demand. 2014 taught us that fortunes can change for everyone in the industry in a matter of a few months based on outside forces beyond anyone's control. within 9 months of the Saudi market flooding policy like 70% of the land industry was cut and business dried up. that's when I started taking leases in my contrary play that ended up working out.

you have to work biglaw hours and have no fun until the market indicators tell you shit is going to turn, have the balls to quit or spin off like I did, and hope for the best. traveling and fucking off during a boom is throwing money away.

still figuring that out myself. crypto seems to be the fad everyone here is making $$$$$ from and it takes minimal effort, just high risk tolerance and money you don't mind losing, so that's something to look into.

like I said, my focus is passive income so I'm probably going to focus on slumlording

you don't, at least not right now. it's a big time price bubble that is killing smaller companies that don't have big hedge fund money behind them. I see so many retards out there trying to do what we did and fucking it all up, committing borderline fraud sometimes, etc.

I started right after the big oil price crash when nobody else was doing it so that was the equivalent becoming a mortgage broker in 2001 and riding it until the top of the market.

not really. I wouldn't recommend a non-T14 JD to anybody, even for free. I still ended up taking out about $30k in debt total just to pay for cost of living.

I was extremely lucky not to get PWNED because there was a huge need for title attorneys and landmen when I graduated and I am a reasonably good hustler and have a knack for running title.

that need has largely dried up, and your alternative with those credentials is shitlaw which usually makes very little money unless you're a tycoon type like CSLG, which most lawyers seldom are.

need moar info:

1) is it leased or HBP by an old well? if so, what is the royalty rate in the lease?

2) is there activity by a recognized shale operator nearby, within a few miles in any direction? (e.g. Devon, Newfield, Continental, Cimarex, Newfield, Citizen)

3) have you or your neighbors received other offers?

4) did you receive the offer from the commission-taker blind? is it a company you've heard of before?

$3000 last month. that's up from $300/mo this time last year.

it's hard to judge because royalty income fluctuates based on oil prices and declines in the wells. I have a broadly diversified portfolio all over the state, and I estimate at full development it could touch $9000-10000 a month before dropping precipitously after a few years

oil companies drill multiple wells off one pad now so I get huge spurts in money when 4+ wells come online all at once then it settles down.

this is why I want to start slumlording because vacancies are much easier to predict and handle than this rollercoaster bullshit

agree 100%. and reinvest your gains wisely.

this is why people who do terrible jobs like cleaning fucking septic tanks for a living, but do it better than anyone else, can be multimillionaires. Dirty Jobs showed hundreds of examples of this
