The log business by far was the most rewarding I have ever done.. ( when the Japanese log market was at all time highs)..

Trader Joes and Mothers, of course, do not.

Love the area (who doesn't like Trader Joes and Lone Wolf??)

The trader usually doesn't just send out a tape to just one entity - they send it to several and wait for the best bid - we don't pull a ton from Florida because we're not willing to bid what some other companies are willing to bid.

It started with the nuclear disarment group who used fallout as an example of how not only people, but things could not exist for hundreds if not thousands of years after a fallout event of a magnitute less than that of the Japanese bombs, yet those two cities are thriving today, after less time than half of the least time scenario given by those proponents.Then they attacked the nuclear power plants and we did have almost the same example they feared in what was Russia and the area is thriving today.Now I see they are saying the same kinds of things about other kinds of emissions.

I am doing real estate investing and services, government and small business consulting services, and personal finance educational services.I was told in 1999 by Ken Hiyashi (former Japanese billionaire who went bankrupt in the late 1980's when the Japanese were buying up American commercial real estate):"One you have made money and lost it, it's easy to make it again. 

I am a financial trader by hobby...but I am looking for some diversity - and real estate has become one of my main interest to leverage the cash flow.I am about to attend the HGTV couple SuccessPath conference...and read from one of the blogs reviews that he had wished he did this first to further his education.  

We currently have a big problem with Japanese investors, buying houses cash and renting them out.

Not for the "retail" trader for sure.  

There is another group I know of property traders that meet up to talk shop.
