Of those events six were job fairs featuring major employers throughout the county, while 78 were resource fairs assisting job seekers in finding work.The department has also helped find jobs for 2,575 teens in San Joaquin County as well, he said.In an effort to make sure their clients stay employed, Solis said the department is launching a layoff aversion strategy program that will match job seekers with employers that fit their skill sets."

That's a good way to be able to drive around and see for yourself what areas of interest there may be for you.A lot of people are investors with good W2 that help fuel their RE business and are so inclined to quit "after" they feel they have established themselves and no longer need the W2.Others are laid off from company wide layoffs and have to get another W2 because their RE is not enough to live off of.The house hacking idea is one I would have personally done had I known about it when I was in my 20's.

Through experience with the Family Court and the new cash cow of each state now, known as CSE Child Support Enforcement, I understand how you come up with your statement or conclusion.But, from being a non-custodial parent and the American economy situation, (unemployment, lay-offs, poverty, homelessness etc. etc. etc…) causing arrearages in court ordered CS payments, it is the CSE with the support of Family Courts that put you on the streets.

Recently I've had some professional turbulence with with a couple layoffs so I've found my motivation.My family has partnered with a GC to flip houses and had success on a couple deals in the DC metro area so far.
