Also, the types of engineers who make the big bucks change over time as technology advances.

The credit boom of 30 years has run its course, and some sort of reckoning will inevitably occur.On an optimistic note, I'm also hoping for, and expecting, quantum technological leaps in energy, health care, etc., to help alleviate the problems.

With technology today, you can get 1000 full color gloss cards on 14pt paper stock for around $69 at most printing companies these days.

James, don't fear technology, embrace it with your heart, but firstly, with your wallet.I was led to this link by looking up this ken guy by this interesting link:https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/61/topics/73148-investment-statistical-analysisbummer that they went the snake oil route vs a potentially a "higher and better use" (if not highest and best) of the concept in the REI market.

Bill Gates loves computers and technology.

I want to follow people successfully investing in commercial RE and hear their perspective on how technology will impact rental stability/need for the next 10-20 years to come

We certainly believe that BiggerPockets needs a property directory, but we feel that until we can build our own system that is to the standards of other high-caliber systems online, it will be to the benefit of our users that we find an appropriate partner to provide the technology for us.That said, users can still post their listings, deals, and opportunities in our Marketplace, which actually gets as much visibility as the just-removed properties system did.BTW - Since we began the simplification process, site load times have improved dramatically, with pages taking around half as long to load.

I'm an old school marketer now trying to implement new technology and thinking.

Happy to host anytime with plenty of space, technology and equipment (plus a mechanical bull).

As a resident of the San Francisco Bay Area, I am always monitoring startup technology to see what and how new technologies will apply to my business...
