Also, I admire your goals and I'm looking into multi-family too.

I think it's admirable, and the least they can do under the circumstance.

Nope, the S&P 500 contains the top 500 companies, the VTASX is and admiral fund that has over 3000 companies.  

@HAILEY ERSKINE I admire your gumption. 

Ironically, it can be difficult to obtain loans for a property as an agent because lenders are leery of the self-employed with commission income, however, if you finish college, get a good W2 job, and have decent credit, lenders will line up to give you money, assuming that you are going into a field that is in demand.I admire you wanting to start investing at a young age, I wish I would have started investing in real estate in my early twenties instead of misspending my youth on debauchery.

@Drew Slew Gary from Admiral Plumbing In JC helped me out when I had an emergency.

The intent of this lunch is simply to let him know I admire what he built and let him know where I'm at and what my plans are.

Anyhow, I admire your spirit. 

Also, if this happened to me, I think I would be absolutely devastated so I really admire your positive attitude.

That's me in my profile pic looking out toward the actual site of this battle.If being laughed at had stopped Lincoln's great act of conscience, the evil of slavery would probably have continued for years in the USA. if it had stopped Washington, Americans would be living in a kingdom, not a republic admired around the world for its stability in change of administrations.
