Thanks Will for the generous help.

Also, people are surprisingly generous with their time, regardless of how busy they appear to be.

The things you’ve advised I’m hoping too learn in time from local persons generous with their time & knowledge .

I'm a 30 year old chemical engineer with a steady job and generous income. 

Robert Lurie's wife was later very generous in her donations to the Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago. 

I didn't hear that in any of your investing niches of interest (light rehab, fix/flip, rentals, multi's).Given that, I would say overkill to get it, even with the super generous offer of a grant from your previous employer.  

There is a ton of information here on BiggerPockets and some incredibly helpful and generous members.

I am willing to learn from anyone willing to teach me, so your offer is much appreciate & generous! 

We'd be underwater at current market rate rent but maybe that program would be more generous.

@Staneley Cesaire This is legit the most generous reflection I’ve read about investing in Class C/D neighborhoods.
