Another Lancaster PA guy

Hello everyone. I guess I’d be considered a stalker in any other context.

You see, my son turned me on to BP quite awhile ago and since that time, I’ve basically been addicted to it but never made the obligatory introduction or participated in the discussions (stealth mode).

And now, to my chagrin, I wanted to ask a few questions but figured I’d better introduce myself first.

I live in Lancaster County, PA. I’m an IT manager and have raised 6 kids (don’t gasp - had 3 of them the fun way and 3 by adoption – and we were a small family compared with my Amish neighbors). Now that they’re grown, I’m asking what I really want to do with my life :)

When I was first married, I did maintenance on the side for a man that had ~30 doors - saw the good, bad and ugly. I’ve also done some major renovations on our own properties.

I’m now looking to get my little toe wet with some notes via an SDIRA I’ve set up.  I'm then going to follow it up with some buy and hold properties.

Well, that’s about it. If you see me around, give a shout.

Chuck
