Your “paid off” house now eats more cash than your car payment.

No, you’re not crazy.

You look at your mortgage statement and think, “I’m doing pretty good.”

Then the tax bill shows up.

Then the insurance renewal.

Then the plumber, the roof guy, the AC guy… and suddenly your “secure” home feels like a part-time job.

New data says the hidden cost of just keeping that house alive is about sixteen thousand dollars a year.

So if you feel broke on paper success, it’s not because you’re bad with money.

It’s because the system quietly turned your house into a hungry pet.

In this video, I’ll show you exactly where the money’s going… and how smart investors flip that script.

Legal Stuff, Disclaimers, and a Dose of Common Sense

Since you made it all the way down here, here’s the real deal:

Everything on this channel—videos, posts, wild ideas, occasional rants—is mine. Epic Real Estate is a real company, but what you see and hear here is me sharing my personal thoughts, observations, and questionable opinions for your information and entertainment only. Not financial advice, not legal advice, not “go do this and sue me if it goes sideways” advice. Just a guy sharing what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what I think might work if you’re bold (and a little crazy).

I do my research, double-check facts, and try to keep it all up-to-date. But sometimes, I just share what I’ve seen, lived through, or picked up along the way—which might not always be verifiable or true for everyone. Stuff changes. Your mileage will definitely vary. If you’re about to make a big financial move because you watched a YouTube video (mine or anyone’s), please—get some professional advice first. You’re a grown-up. Own your decisions.

Heads up: Sometimes I recommend products or services. I might get paid. I might not. I only talk about stuff I think is useful, but don’t take my word as gospel—do your own homework.

Oh, and as for the cool stock images, music, or footage in these videos: all properly licensed and not for you to reuse, screenshot, or swipe. Don’t be that person.

Bottom line: You’re responsible for what you do with your own money, time, and energy. I’m not liable for anything that happens to you as a result of watching, reading, or listening to my stuff. Don’t blame me for your losses, and definitely don’t credit me for your wins—I’ll just say “told ya so.”

That’s it. Now go do something cool.
