Also, I may be having so much fun with my dreams being a reality that I'll just keep buying.Is this plan realistic or too ambitious?

I am told that the average profit on a flip in Maricopa County is $10,000 (I do much better than that because I buy correctly and I don't over do the remodel)6) Remember, you make your profit when you buy (buy wisely)7) Flipping:      Fun?

It's not fun hearing stories like this.

I think this'll be fun.

I Started reading books on real estate investing actually just got fun and it has been growing into something I'm becoming passionate about, I discovered this website about a week ago and it's provided me with tons of knowledge.

Although a lot of fun, my job is too erratic with long hours to do that, so I came across Brandon Turner's book on Rental Property Investing and felt it gave me options to be more "hands off" in terms of being an investor with good property managers, etc.I'm saving money and hope in the next year to buy my first property as I learn more, read more, and hopefully see the seattle market slow down a bit.I would love to meet like-minded people in the area.  

And I would argue, likely lower expenses and less headaches.I think the best bet would be pulling a Donald Trump and getting in on an entertainment / casino / development deal.

I got a Canon SL1, so not exactly top of the line, but I've done some fun stuff with it so far.

BP is cool and fun to ask questions but this is not nearly enough to learn it all.

Sounds like a fun situation.
