With over 150,000 BP members and 54 podcasts, we should be celebrating an 8-million download milestone.

I know this is a controversial topic, however I thought that the BiggerPockets community was the best place to begin a conversation on this important issue. 

Im 39 and just celebrated my first "anniversary" of investing.

As for screening..........and this may be controversial but this works for me, here goes.Even though I'm Out of State, My PM is OK with me doing initial screening of Section 8 tenants.Advertise on GoSection8 and out your phone number as the contact.When the potetial tenant calls, here's what I askDo you have a voucher in hand?

I had no intentions of beginning a controversial topic, but I did.

But every tenant acquired and screened as stated above have been long-time, multiple year tenants - with several who worked their way out of the program to become financially independent (celebrate that!)

Cards with unlimited spending exist for celebrities and other filthy rich individuals, but it's not something you or I would ever 'apply' for.However you can combine 4 different 25k cards and reach the same effect.

I would visit Huge Hefner and the playboy bunnys and celebrate life.

That’s a good idea but I don’t think it is very practical...plus naturally you would create controversy by putting certain people in a hall of fame and certain people would post just to get into this hall of fame.

MichaelFirst I would again like to thank you for the opportunity to respond in this forum.However, I missed the deadline due to not checking back to BP.And celebrating life.As I said in my reply the Christmas season is good and bad for me.As I celebrate being alive and the various blessings that have been provided to me over the past 4 years.I also realize that I've got to do the right thing the remainder of my life.By mastering a new field I believe that I can make a difference by helping others.I would love to be able to do as you have done this year,next year and include the accommodations as well.If more people were like you and Joshua and the BP family think of how wonderful this world would be.May God Bless and continue to keep you.Demond
