Oops, I guess I need to set up my signature block for my posts.

Paul, thank you for the links.  They look to be very helpful.

Kyle, our short term goals are to get trained in as many different types of investing as we can and then to concentrate on the ones we like the most.  Making enough money to live our lives in comfort is another goal but we would prefer to enjoy what we are doing so that's why we will limit the ones we enjoy.

I have a terminal cancer so my wife and I want to spend as much time together as we can.  Becoming successful as we can so she can quit her job is important to us so my personal goal is to continue to fight this damned cancer long enough for her and I to spend a lot of time together.  I have already outlived the doctor's prediction by 11 months and am still doing quite well so that's a good thing.

I guess getting that first deal done is our main priority right now.

Hello to everyone here at bigger pockets. My name is Bob and I am a real estate investor. Well okay, not quite yet but I'm working hard at it. My wife and I got involved with real estate investing about one month ago and we have not yet completed our first deal but we are working hard to learn all the ins and outs of real estate investing. I am a retired airline pilot and my wife works in the administrative side of the local hospital. We have always been interested in real estate investing but have just never taken the plunge for some reason. But now we've jumped in both feet and we're going to work as hard as we can to make this succeed. Our goal is to be successful enough for her to quit her job so that we can spend as Time together as possible. I found this site last night and after reading several different threads in the for him plus the real life thread by Mr. Deguzman I knew I had found a very good website. I hope I can also contribute something from my experiences as a newbie. My wife and I are looking forward to this.
