Currently working for the Navy in RI as an Electrical Engineer.The only background from real estate are experiences of success and failure on investing in real estate through my father.

I appriecate the different opinions and concern but I see failure as an opportunity that was given up on and not revisited.

I don't want to go into REI with a thought that I will plug into a windfall of money off the bat - i know there are several failure stories.

It finally happened and in the end I am glad I waited because failure is not an option.

(do 1 warmup set for each exercise, with no weight)Workout B3x5 Squats3x5 Standing Military Press (seated is ok, if needed)3x5 Bent Rows (bend at hips, head up, row to your mid chest)2x8 chin-ups (first set front grip, second reverse grip. do jump chinups in the beginning, if needed. jump up, then pullup, using your momentum.)Abs - 2 sets, both until failure, 3 minutes rest between the two.No concentrated arm workouts are needed. dips, chins, benching takes care of it.

It can and will produce mistakes and failures.

Without money, credit, and a source of income, your probability of FAILURE in real estate investing is ASTRONOMICAL!

I really didn't take his flame as picking a fight, just as an example of venting after having jumped into something he was not prepared for, where failure comes at quite a price.Shoulda-coulda-woulda come here first, had he known better!

So, these are people who have filed for BK in some form, and they are somewhat still teetering on financial failure?

And do not be afraid to fail coz that failure will lead you to success if you take it positively.
