With proper support, it can reach impressive size indoors while maintaining manageable care needs.

This cultivar grows fast and confidently in the right conditions, especially when given vertical space to climb.

Great tool for SAT vocab
I usually don't write reviews but this book has impressed me so much that I have to write one! I would like to thank the author for creating such a helpful book for learning SAT vocab words. Grouping the words together, writing sentences for each word, and exercises to practice them are all awesome ways for remembering vocab.

Life changing
Format: Paperback
This book completely blew my mind as it broadened my horizons on the opportunities to be found in real estate investing from the other side of the transaction...as the lender rather than the borrower. I'd always had some ill-defined goals around real estate investing that I never seemed to get around to. I finally decided to push past my malaise and start educating myself in earnest. Around the same time I started land lording for my father's recent purchase of a 4-plex in Panama Central America. And I quickly realized that while I loved the general idea of real estate as a wealth building strategy, I didn't want to deal with tenants in my long-run real estate investing journey. Then I happened across a post about the forthcoming book from Beth and Alex and I immediately got the sense that I had found my future niche. The book did not disappoint. I was so inspired and saw myself in so much of Beth and Alex's stories about how they came upon private money lending and how/why it fits into their lives. I am an expat living abroad and want to be able to run my real estate business from anywhere in the world without having to deal with tenants, toilets, or termites. Feeling fully inspired and mission-aligned with the idea of private money lending, I delved into the nitty gritty. The book provides just the right amount of detail and actionable information without being overwhelming. I'll stop writing so you can go order the book and start reading IT instead of this review. You won't be disappointed...even if you pursue some other aspect of real estate investing you will understand both sides of the lending transaction more holistically and walk away a better investor.

"Lend Like a Pro, Live Life on Your Terms—The Ultimate Guide to Passive Real Estate Investing"
Format: Paperback
I recently read Lend to Live by Alex Breshears and Beth Johnson. It's a must-read for anyone interested in passive real estate investing. This book brilliantly simplifies private money lending, offering actionable steps to "be the bank" for real estate deals while freeing up your time. The authors break down key concepts like setting lending criteria, managing risks, and building a virtual team in a way that's practical and easy to follow. I found the C.P.R. private lending method particularly valuable—it's an excellent framework for anyone looking to create passive income with minimal hassle. Lend to Live provides everything you need to get started if you're seeking a lifestyle-friendly investment strategy that works with any schedule and helps you build wealth. I highly recommend it!
