Greetings BP family, finally writing my 1st post, whew!!

I returned to 9 to 5 this week after 3 months maternity leave (Wow, Really!!!!) . Well, it's time to Run, YES, I said, [b]"RUN"... I'm ready to dust myself off, put salt on my wounds & "swallow the bitter pill". I'm pressing forward into my greatness.

My husband & I purchased our 1st investment, 2units last year(CASH -accumulated from 2 buyer's transaction) & less than 30 days after our 1st home, 2 units (FHA -Downpayment was saved between my husband & self= 1yr on salary less than $90k. Note that we live in NYC-That's another post:). Family & friends claim I'm an economist/cheap/ you name it, once it has to do with saving/adding/multipying/investing...I'm labelled. BUT, that's OK because I know what I do, feel, and experience many people on this forum share similar PASSION/JOY:)

BP family, I'm VERY VERY HAPPY & Grateful to be part of this comradery. RE is GOOD & it does offer financial freedom & flexibility. Now, that I'm a mom, I truly YEARN spending quality time with my son & doing what I love not what society says is best (Look at our present economy) . We were all created for GREATNESS and if you know better... ALWAYS strive to do/be better!! I'm open to all suggestions and comments and look forward to sharing & receiving ideas.
