See my review on the above BP thread.There is NO goose laying golden eggs!!!   

My golden rule is: if a big investor hasn’t interviewed on the BiggerPockets Podcast it could be for a reason.

I feel quite safe in S.F. walking around during the day and when out at night with other people (again I'm not going out to dinner in the Tenderloin, walking around in Golden Gate Park at night, etc). 

That 32% repeat guests is incredible.If you've got disciples out there spreading the gospel of your vacation rental, then you're golden. 

Even in Silicon Valley MFHs prices do not appreciate as much as SFHs. 401K is meant for your golden years often used for a major medical bill not covered by your insurance.So you want to jump in at market peak it will not regroup until next housing cycle facing tax consequence now?

Since you want it to be as easy/quick as possible, I'll give you three things you need to learn...as a starting point:1 - How to Analyze Markets to find the Micro-markets that are good to invest in.2 - How Money Works, so you can develop an unlimited number of strategies which will allow you to be able to take advantage of as many opportunities as possible.3 - How to design your own REI Plan by reverse engineering from your specific set of financial goals back to where you are now...then execute it by turning around and just following the breadcrumbs.4 - (OK, I said it wasn't as easy as "just one thing")...Learn what the meaning of the number sequence "1073751824" means, and how to base EVERY decision you make on the meaning of that number sequence.5 - Learn why it's so important to follow the 2 Golden Rules of REI, of which GR#1 is:  NEVER, under ANY circumstances, ever, EVER, spend your seed money (your starting cash).

What made you interested in investing in this type of de...

I'm all about the hands-on approach, teaching people how to recognize those golden investment possibilities and even encouraging them to join me in real transactions.

Actually my first transaction resulted in a six-figure commission and that got me hooked, the golden handcuffs were on. 

Is it too late to really build wealth in a timely fashion so that we can enjoy our golden years eventually?
