But, I'm afraid its the infrastructure that will line the pockets of the swamp in crowd before the infrastructure that actually needs it...like dams and bridges.When you reduce taxes for the wealthy and businesses when you are in as much debt as our country is...you don't have to worry about the poor suffering...you worry about the disappearance of the middle class ENTIRELY.

The veterans told me the yield will come once you have the wealth. I

Not that the society can't afford this: look how easily we come up with similar amounts to bail out savings and loans, make war, give massive tax breaks to the wealthy.

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is "The Wealthy Barber".Personally, I view it as a separate line of business.  

These contractors are now very wealthy.

I just listened to a podcast that talked about making sure you are happy in the process to becoming wealthy not waiting until you are wealthy to be happy.

When brokers/agents are investors themselves and in the business along time they tend to be wealthy already and do not live by the deal.

If you had to use your own money and your personal leverage (assuming you're not ultra-wealthy), you'd likely spend your whole life buying units before you were anywhere near diversified.Unlike the stock market, where you can be fully diversified with $1000 and a couple hours of open accounts and buying mutual funds.So, in my opinion at least, focusing on diversification should not be your goal...for that -- and other -- reasons.

You can ask the investor whether he might be willing to take a lower interest rate until the refi in return for a share of the increased value after the refi.Having access to wealthy investors is a great thing and if you are able to use his funds in a manner that he finds exciting, he may tell some of his other wealthy friends and soon you will have a lot more investors lining up to do deals with you.
