Hey BP community!!  My name is Mike and based on the subject and category of this thread, I think you have guessed (correctly) that I am new to the site.  I stumbled across the site when I was looking for investment podcasts and found the BP podcast with such high reviews.  After listening to a few episodes (currently on ep. 15), I decided to sign up for the site to get engaged with the experts.

About me: I was born and still live in Southeast Michigan; more specifically in Oakland/Macomb County area.  I am in my early 30s (soon to be mid 30s) and am married with one child who was born just over a month ago.

My goal:  To accumulate wealth.  I am looking for additional avenues for investing that will help to increase or replace my current income with a focus of growing those investments over time.  

My background: I have zero experience with real estate except for owning my own home. However, I am a numbers guy and base all of my investment decisions based on the numbers. I have come to the site to learn as much as I can about REI and to learn from other experts on the site.

Hopefully that gave you a quick idea of who I am in 30 seconds.  Just wanted to say hi and that I'm glad to meet you all!!

-Mike

Thanks @Michael Ventura!  I've chosen to listen to the podcast on my drive to/from work.  I'm just glad that they have show notes that I can go back and reference since I don't have the pen and paper while listening to them.
