Contrary to popular belief, all the developers didn't go under in the last recession - only the ones who didn't understand the proper way to use leverage. 95% leverage and razor-thin margins usually don't work, but 75% leverage and healthy cash flow works just fine - but you know this, because you are leveraged 75%.

The knobs look like little porcelain yoyo's with no slot and tubes are about the size of a bic pen, only porcelain which the wire goes through. 

You could learn a lot from them still, just try to understand why they advise the things they do and understand that what works for them in their local market may or may not be applicable to you in yours.Finally, in addition to a bunch of really great folks, unfortunately, there are also a bunch of sharks here on BP and in RE in general telling newbies what they want to hear and preying on their inexperience, so always be on the lookout for their true motives and watch yourself.
