For 51K you can make realy big mistakes (and learn from it), or you can hire a professional investor for one day a week for al whole year.When you send that much money, I am still not sure you will learn anything from it.

THere is a new expert popping up every day, a new podcast, a new guru building credibility (or attempting to) in subtle but dubious ways.

My kids host a week long “kids fun camp” for a few hours a day a couple times each summer.

Quote from @Isaiah Day: A little introduction on myself, I am a recent college grad.

Things were more good than not, and at the end of the day a good deal got done.However, the loan officer I worked with moved on, and I'm not likely to revisit the same company again.

A high producing real estate agent as we know is a more than full time 7 day a week job..   

it takes about 5-10 min on WDFI to get your LLC set up, and needed docs emailed to you, if you set the start day as the day you register the LLC you are up and running as soon as the credit card payment is approved. 

Until one day, as I tell people now, it was like someone turned the water faucet off...no phone calls to the office, no interest, cancelled contracts, etc. 

Most of us (say ~30 and under) have never woken up one day as adults with the market being worse than it was the day before.

But it was built upon math that simply did not support the whole, and when correction came it was a long tumble back to reality. 08/09 Mortgage backed securities were the "tulip bulb" of the day, a so called long standing guaranteed investment vehicle.
