LOL- Just write a basic mission statement. - Create a "realistic" goal of how much money you want to make in 2009- Find out what the average wholesale deal will net you in your area.- Plug and play the numbers game to figure out how many wholesale deals you need to achieve your goals.- Let every, single human being you come in contact with know what you are doing.- Get out on the street and meet at least 3 new people per day!

If the SDIRA is engaging in a trade or business on a regular or repeated basis (primary focus or otherwise) then it is subject to UBTI.The code outlines that if a tax-exempt entity is engaging in a trade or business separate from its primary tax-exempt mission - such as a hospital providing healthcare - there is exposure to UBIT, such as if the hospital runs a bookstore.
