The conference looks like it has a good amount of value, but with the Paper Source conference in April, and the Note Expo conference in November, it's difficult to justify the cost of travel, hotel, food and the conference for yet another event in our note investing niche. 

I hope to learn how to have a successful, diverse and large portfolio so that one day I will not have to depend on working 9-5 to put food on the table.

Even if you don't get the deal done you were still able to establish that you all will work for "food", and not just someone who is looking to get rich through real estate.

ONLY downside is I am told they can be stained by foods but a good sealer and bee's wax treatment goes a long way. 

His health is heavily compromised, the local agencies are not helping him much(who he uses for medical, food or moving needs) & he has much trouble getting around.

From the windows, I saw there was a big mess inside the house: very dirty carpet; old and dirty furniture randomly stacked on each other; all kitchen cabinet drawers were pulled out; no clothes, dishes or food, no any sign that someone lives there.

Your go-to lender gets food AND booze out of you?

Other growth seems to be the food industry with large chain groceries stores/department stores coming to the area.

Just food for thoughtAlex

Like walking dogs, food grocery delivery, many more accomodative pricing communitie services.
