Hi everyone! Starting from scratch
Just jumped on this wagon and hope to make the best of it. I'm 26 years old and live in Los Angeles, CA
I've hit multiple dead ends and am getting frustrated. All of the rei groups in the area I've attempted to attending either keep cancelling or too far.
Does anyone know of any groups that get together in the Downtown LA area, mid city, West Hollywood area?
Looking for people my age or around my age that can't seem to get off the ground and just need a little guidance.
Hope to hear from anyone with a little wisdom! Cheers to your success

@Account Closed 2 Things:
1. Keep at it. RE is a frustrating endeavor.
2. Start putting money away today. Make it a regular thing. Cash is still king in this game, especially for the rookies.
Ideas:
Start your own REI group. Convince your friends. Keep posting here. Find specific topics to discuss. Do it at an interesting location. Pass out flyers.
BP is a great place to find just about anything you could want in the RE world.
