So they would be your employee.  

Subsequently, they lost all of their local employees (I even hired one for my personal properties).

And his direct employees are allowed to sell these notes if they were registered and disclosed properly..

@Scott Trench introduced himself to my wife as Scott a BP employee (was he trying to be modest or be incognito).

Helens now to be fair he is quite brilliant at construction owns a HUGE underground construction company that he sold to his employees  and loves these type of off the main stream projects and has put many hours into it.. and not made a dime LOL.. he donated one of the fully built homes to the local collage..

Paystubs only work for w2 employees.

I am a state employee contributing 10% of my pre tax dollars to a 457b and I contribute 7.25% to a state retirement plan - no employer match.After a little research, I'm learning some early real estate investors with a W-2 job do not contribute to a retirement plan if there is not a company match, but instead put their money toward real estate investing. 

they are buying the assets and closing.. and the big ones are all licensed.. so you can have an employee work for you in a very narrow scope.. but why u would want to do this is weird.. there is no real money in it and over time your not building a career your just wasting time. trying to figure out how to stay on the fringe.

@Dave Charron, just a guess but perhaps the company wasn't properly insured or the guy wasn't an on the books employee and also the company probably has no suitable assets that can be sold off to collect against them. 

The sales position is purely commission-based and 1099-related so I have to pay for all of my expenses that otherwise a W2 employee would get which also unfortunately STINKS.
