Direct answer

Velocity wins over 10+ years; yield matters in early portfolio years.

Expanded explanation

BRRRR at 3x recycling beats a one-time 50% return after 5–7 years. The compounding advantage compounds. Yield matters in early years when you need cash to survive.

Examples

  • $100k recycled 3x → $400k controlled equity vs $150k one-time.
