Teacher and Investor

[Brad Thomas]

Hi all. I'm a high school Economics teacher in upstate NY. I wanted to run a small business to help me and my students understand the "real" economy and actual economic dynamics better and I also wanted to get serious about generating $ for retirement. I love to read and, after reading a book about real estate investing, found the skill set similar to teaching in many ways. I now own 5 rental properties and, thus far, am enjoying the process. If you love to learn, the problems associated with real estate investing become opportunities to expand your understanding.

One activity to look at taking inside the classroom would be Kiyosaki's CashFlow game.

I'm teaching English out in Korea right now, but love talking the industry, if you ever are up for it. 

Welcome!
