On that same note, and I am posing this question out there to see if others have experienced this same circumstance, and I would like any enlightening out-of-the-box point of view as to "why" it happened...So let's say you, the senior member in the brokerage firm (one person) had several real estate deals lined up.  

Shout out to Account Closed, thanks for a fun and enlightening meeting this afternoon!

I then read " The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Investing", which was a page turner but also every enlightening!

They don't care about market pricing because they believe the trend will continue for ever.Over paid Idiots for the most part.Everyone that doesn't think, act, and invest like you is an idiot ... how very open minded and enlightened of you.

My comments are meant to enlighten people as to what may be possible - without laying out every detail. 

Interesting and enlightening post from all members.

So with that, great to meet you all, and I hope to have some enlightening conversations with you guys :)A little about me: I'm 25, freshly out of carpentry school, but not working due to an injury.

Let's also consider the possibility that many people are... less than enlightened.

Thanks a lot Jeff for the enlightenment on this particular subject.

Thank you for enlightening me!
