They already put the report in for the "Revenue Protection Department".According to the gas man, they have this happen and see this daily, multiple times.

Maybe, just maybe, had Obama made his daily briefings, he would have seen the red flags!

And, I spend time daily putting action behind what I learn.

- People like the relative security and stability of a paycheck- it takes some money to get started, not everybody has it- You will technically be a business owner, that's for sure not everybody's cup of tea- scared, like Rob said; not knowing enough or not interested in investing the time to learn enough- If people have money to invest, they like to diversify and not put all the eggs into one basket/house.

Plus, you'd be surprised how often opportunities arise to represent someone and make some quick cash;- You'll get access to the forms you need;- You'll get access the MLS and some potential deal flow;- You'll have the ability to list short sales (if that's your cup of tea);- You'll be able to network with lots of others in the industry;- You'll learn all the basics of real estate that you're currently confused about.

A person who does not need or want someone telling them what to do on a daily basis.
