A relative of mine used her credit card to buy alcohol due to her addiction. 

Host a meetup for local investors with food and drink and present my numbers as a case study to benefit all?  

It means coke , not the kind you drink .

@Nick Love most definitely interested I’m 28 and just overcame an addiction to alcohol I’m working hard (good job) reading lots and building myself.

The city is now trying to site a drug/alcohol rehab facility in the neighborhood.   

I have been drinking out of the cash flow cool aid for too long, the real wealth is built by growth!

Typically drug use, felonies & alcohol abuse are major concerns with this crowd of dudes.

I am currently in the process of trying to locate a great local real estate agent to work with me in finding a good starter SFH to rehab/fix-up and begin renting it out.I have been saving up for the last few years and have quite a bit of capital ready to get started.I'd also love to meet local real estate investors to meet up for coffee or drinks to learn more about your experiences investing in the Bay Area!

If any of you want to grab coffee, lunch, or drinks sometime let me know! 

You'll want to know where the people work, eat/drink, enjoy/dislike, and just get a sense for the community.
