<prompt> Human: Im mainly interested in learning about strategies in general for any end goal, but if you want to cater it for my situation, here are some details: - End goal is to contribute to the downpayment for a house. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area so that probably means around 100-200k, unless there are different ways to qualify for a mortgage with 10 downpayment without PMIreally high interest rates piggyback loans? Im all ears. I could live in it, but Im mainly buying the house for my mom shes in Florida, I want her to escape like I did. Ideally, Id buy property that has multiple units on the lot or an in-law unit for rental income thatll hopefully help with mortgage payments, but I know theyre difficult to come by at 1 million. Even if my mom didnt want to move to California, I would rather dump a chunk of my income to my own mortgage than to someone elses.- Im using my college degree and the relevant skill set for my full-time 9-6ish job, which pays decently well and is probably the highest paid per hour job I can get with my current abilities. Ill hopefully climb the ladder and have a much higher salary in a few years, but for now with all my expenses I can only save 1000month for this goal. Im not sure what other skills I have that can make money on the side, but my main job requires some travel so I can probably only take jobs that would allow remote work or flexible scheduling I was thinking about a tech-related job since I know a little Javascript and am down to learn more, but I havent done a lot of research into that industry. Open to any side job suggestions!- I have savingsinvestment plans and fortunately dont have any debt, having worked my way through college. Almost everyone I know who owns real estate in the Bay Area was able to buymortgage it because of their company stock options. I have equity in a few startups that Im hoping will be worth something we can dream, right? and will probably get some more stock options in the next 5 years, so this is a backup plan while Im growing my cash savings.Thanks! Any advice is much appreciated. :  <response>: You want your mom to escape Florida? You should escape the Bay and join your mom in the tax free haven that is Florida.
