New member intro ๐
Hey y'all! I recently joined BP and am new to the wide world of REI. I'm a wife and mother of five looking to earn FIRE in the next 5-7 years. I'm a PharmD and work for a small pharmaceutical company in my W2. My immediate goal is to make at least one REI before EOY, most likely through MTRs and/or syndications as a LP. I had a conversation with a friend about 2 months ago that finally lit my longtime interest in REI. Since then I've been "binge learning" with several books, numerous videos, webinars, the BP podcasts (of course๐), analyzing deals using the BP tools, teaching my 13 yr old daughter to analyze deals for me ๐ค, toured potential properties and even attended my first local REIA here in Lexington, KY this week. Additionally, I've found my biggest sources of learning and insights come from conversations with others through networking. So many of you are doing such incredible things, and I'm learning so much from your sharing of not only your successes but your failures too! Another short term goal of mine is to build accountability for myself by documenting my REI journey on IGโฆstay tuned.๐ Hope to connect with more of the BP community and bring value to others here as I trek through my own REI adventure.
Cheers,
