Louis, Missouri area.I've been reading through BP for a while and feel it is a good place to network and learn from as I make mistakes.Hope everyone has a safe New Year celebration and I look forward to investing/learning/networking and getting unstuck from the mud and making my first deal in 2014!

We try to make it up there in the summer for the Celebration of Lights fireworks show.

My name is Jordan Kissick, I am 25 years old, I have three children and just celebrated my 5th anniversary (Dec 31) with my wife Katrina.

My name is Nicolas, I have make real estate investing part of my life about 1 year and half ago by reading, attending seminars, meetings and learning and since January actually started TAKING ACTION with my marketing, business plan, leads, etc etc FYI - I am suppose to close my first wholesale deal next week but it has been a tough one with an eviction - lawyers and a lot of negotiating so I can't celebrate yet!

He was super high-end and well known as someone who does work on celebrities.

It's the wealthy who pay the taxes and give the most to charities so they should, for the most part, be celebrated...not vilified.

But Phil is right - go guerrilla; you can make flyers (2-per page) for just a couple of cents each down at FedEx Office and take them and put them on cars in the parking lots at the 4th of July celebration in your area!

Therefore, each year I celebrate my growing financial independence from government taxes and entitlement programs.

It was a great learning experience.Money, money, money, what a controversial subject.

We will be celebrating two birthdays and an anniversary, going through a busy time at my day job, managing the renovation on the duplex, and moving 700 miles…all in a 30 day window.
