Thanks a lot Scott and James i was begining to think nobody wanted to share ther toys with me!!!

I'm toying with two different strategies.

I know Ebay has all sorts of equations for pricing a listing of cars, toys, etc. - and some of them are value based.

I've been toying w/ the idea of eventually buying an investment property to hold as a rental.

Hey Sean - We've toyed with the idea, and I wonder how others feel about this idea.

(note all toys are paid for in cash) Anyway at dinner get a call from a Realtor to buy a 3 unit for $36,000.

I'm toying with the idea of renting it to my sisters and one of their friends since they are planning on getting a place together within a few months.

If you put 200k in REI you may lose it; likewise you may feel you lost it putting it in college.There's an argument that you should have a laser focus, put all your eggs in one basket, and make sure you have a reason not to fail (losing it all).It depends on your propencity towards risk.

My father and I have been investing in real estate for many years now.He's now just retiring and I'm going to try and pick up where he left off.I own a custom home electronics company out here and I just love everything about real estate.We do all the high end electronic toys that most people dream of.

His hair was curled like a woman's and he had makeup on and there was a big sex toy inserted you know where.
