Hello BP world!  This is my 1st ever post, so be gentle. :)  I've been quietly soaking up content for about a month, and figured why not drop a quick hello in the New Member Intro section. Currently, I work full-time in the geeky software development field and also own and manage a few rental properties here in Ft. Lauderdale side of South Florida. Looking to both scale and ramp up my investing this year, and so far I'm very happy to have become a part of this very knowledgeable community. Well, I've rambled on long enough but I promise my next post will have a more substantial purpose. 

Chris,
