These types of investors have become followers instead of passionate, creative, leaders who aren’t afraid to take risks.

@Caleb Heimsoth I attend the monthly local REI meetup religiously, and I've met a few there.

.·        The leaders, Shannon and Phill Grove, are bluntabout what they are selling.

I'm sure they're wonderful dogs, but they need strong leaders-- ---do you think renters understand this?

I am a realtor full time and am the leader of our team.

I listened to bigger pockets religiously, but barely participated in the forum.

Arguing the probability of a city of 212k can immediately replace a city of 1 million + (Austin is about 1mil, Bay Area is 7) as a leader in any industry is certainly not the point of this post.

You puny humans already use us for everyday tasks and your engineers, professors and entrepreneurial leaders are investing in us day by day.

Im not positive if we are looking for a managing broker in the state but I know we need team leaders and mentors EVERYWHERE. 

Talking about real estate, properties, and financial independence is something I enjoy.I listen to the BP Podcasts almost religiously.
