Just had my first belittling experience...

So I just got back from pricing out a rehab for a house... When I was finished pricing everything out and was about to leave, a huge, brand new Cadillac SUV pulls up slowly. Right away, I know it's another investor, and I'm starting to feel small as I know his vehicle costs around $90K, which is more than I'd make in like 7 years at my current job.

So the guy gets out and me and my Realtor are talking and then he walks up to us and I tell him, "hi!" and he completely ignores me... doesn't even look at me. He goes up to my Realtor, says "hi", and ask's me to leave so he can talk with her in private and I'm basically just shunned out, and leave...

I don't mind my Realtor talking to him, but man, that guy just made me feel small... I want to get this house even more bad now so I can show him the, "little guy" can beat him.

What a crappy feeling...
