Quick Intro from a Newbie Investor / BP Lurker

[Jon Acosta]

Hi Everyone,

Full Disclosure: 
I've been lurking in the shadows of the forums and digesting EVERY single episode of the podcast like audio crack for weeks now.
This is me officially stepping out to say "hello".

My name's Jon; I live in Atlanta, GA and my "profession" is in video production and A/V technologies. 

First, I just need to say that Biggerpockets.com has downright shifted my entire understanding of what real wealth is and how SIMPLE (not easy, but simple.) it can be.

IN SUMMARY:
You just have to know how to play the game.
And it's HELLA fun!

Quick Backstory:
I had a terrible experience with a condo back in 2008 and have been absolutely terrified of any concept of home ownership ever since. (btw- @Joshua Dorkin, I 100% agree with your views on HOA's)

This community has given me the confidence I didn't even know was missing; to start building REAL WEALTH in a way I didn't even know was possible. 

And frankly, that's just downright sexy.

Looking forward to connecting with everyone!
Happy Investing,

-Jon
