Hi!

A year or so back I found a cool story and am trying to find it again.

It was about a young lady who shared a 2 bedroom apartment with a roommate.   When her roommate was travelling on business she rented out the roommate's room on Airbnb.  When her roommate was in town, she rented out her own bedroom and slept on a friend's couch.
 

She did this until she had made enough to put down an deposit on another apartment -- which she didn't move into.  Instead, she rented it out on Airbnb.   Lather, rinse, repeat, until she had a good business going.  Then she started buying the apartments.


I can't find it again.


Anyone remember where it was or have a link for it?

Thanks!

Wasn't she featured on the MMM blog?

Is this the one you were looking for?

Very similar, but not the same interview.  Might be the same person though.

But it will certainly fit my needs!
