Introduction - Boston area
Hi All,
I'm new to the group in the greater Boston area. I am absolutely enthralled with the podcasts that were produced by Bigger Pockets, they are awesome! I've been a member for less than two weeks, but I'm already getting started on the books & ordered the Wealth Magazine. I have plenty of time to learn because I was laid off from my Executive Assistant position at a pharmaceutical company, due to an acquisition. As I listen to the podcasts and the question about "How to learn more/best way to learn/finding a mentor?" is answered by guests, the consensus seems to be: to get a job in the industry where you can provide your particular expertise, while learning what you don't know from a pro. I would love to work for a professional Real Estate Investor/Company, as an EA. Until then, I will continue to enjoy the podcasts and books on your website. Thank you Brandon, Josh and the Bigger Pockets team for creating this platform!
-Nancy
