Hi Nick,My only interest is to hopefully socialize with more local BiggerPockets members. 

Don't let the psychology of previous investment lead you into what turns out to be a bad deal (i.e., you already spent money on an inspection, or you'll lose your $500 earnest money, so you follow through on a dud).

In the very near future I can easily picture this being the social media lineup you see on all websites. 

You may want to rethink your approach to social interaction. 

Better that than simply labeling all of them as being social leaches or lazy bums.The reason why section 8 tenants have trouble finding housing is because landlords know from first hand experience the tenant class has a legitimate bad reputation.  

Go to every party and social function you can and talk real estate with people.
