I do have a lot of experience on another message board, except it's a college football one, Go Big Red! 

It truly seems like a fantasy but I believe with hard work and dedication I can make it happen, I just need to educate myself about how to create a positive cashflow through real estate investing, that's why I have come here.I know it probably says I live in Riverdale Michigan, but infact I live in Australia, as there was no option for Australian cities I had to put something else. 

IMO it might be a bit of a fantasy that somehow this type of investment is going to be truely passive or actually hands off.

The top 20% are always looking to go to the next level.This basically comes down to the CREATORS and the EXISTORS.Creators ask how can I improve constantly something and do it better at a high level.Existors ( fantasy name I made up ) want to do the minimum to get by and then be lazy.

After looking at so many properties that have been hit by copper thieves over the years, I have started to have this recurring fantasy about catching them in the act. 

The Rams moving in and the football stadium itself mean pretty little IMHO (as much as I like it as a child Rams fan). 

More likely a made up fantasy.

There's the University of Texas, the Capitol, 6th street, live music, rivers, lakes, good restaurants and plenty more.That weekend UT football will be playing away which is helpful in that traffic won't be as bad and hotels won't jack up their rates as if they were here.

Hello MikeDo you have family here in Lincoln or were you planning to move back here, or could it be the Nebraska football games : ) here that you want easier access too?

I agree with you; much like football players who go crazy when scoring a touchdown, these folks should "act like they've been there before".
