Hey all,

Just curious to know if anyone would be open to a real estate/business/personal development book. I'm a fairly voracious reader (2-3 books month), but I'm always more engaged and accountable when I have to share the information with a group. I also recognize that a newbie, it's critical to absorb as much possible.

A few of the books I'm reading and have read include:

- Millionaire Real Estate Investor 

- The Book on Rental Property Investing & Landlording

- Black Swan 

- Out of State Real Estate Investing 

- Cashflow Quadrant

- Rich Dad/Poor Dad

- What every real estate investor needs to know about cash flow

In the next few months, I'm planning on reading:

- How I turned $5K into $5,000,000

- How to invest with low or no money down

- The advanced guide to real estate investing 

If a group is interested in getting together to exchange ideas based on reading and have meaningful, and hopefully actionable discussions, please let me know. I will coordinate. 

Thanks,

Chirag
