Nothing else.When I'm waiting for doctor's appointments-dentists, in line for other mundane consumer chores, I put stuff on index cards and study them. like sales objection handlers, marketing ideas, and the like.Or I talk into a portable digital tape recorder.Or I practice to complete and utter strangers my "elevator speech."

Beth Brooke, global vice chair at Ernst & Young LLP, WSJ, Sept 30, 2008 "Blaming fair-value accounting for the credit crisis is a lot like going to a doctor for a diagnosis and then blaming him for telling you that you are sick."

I recently met a doctor who is interested in "getting into real estate".

If you don't get your properties rented at the beginning of a semester or school year, you may end up holding vacant properties for many months (unless you seriously lower the rent, or take less desirable tenants).In my area, college rentals that cash flow are hard to find (all the sellers are hoping some doctor-daddy will buy their overpriced property for some spoiled princess).It can be a good business (especially with parental guarentees), but you've really really got to know your market.

If you want to be a doctor, nurse or lawyer though, you should finish.If you know you will be doing real estate I would find a great mentor and work for free!

How about:Get a doctor to apply for a 20% down at a commercial lender.Get a tenant buyer that will pay 20% over PITI (rent plus option payment)You have less risk with TBer LO than Land Contract.********************************************2.

As far as I understand LLC's in Canada only exist for companies that cannot be protected from liability under corporate law: i.e. doctors or accountants.

I believe that good real estate agents are worth their weight in gold.Remember, not all Real Estate Agents are alike just as not all Doctors or Contractors or any other profession are alike.To group us in a 'ALL' category does a disservice not only to us, but to the categorizer as well.

I'm not sure what it's even for as it is from 2000 and I hardly ever go to the doctor (I'm guessing it might have to do with a broken wrist around that time).

Either owned and operated a small business and it became larger, worked for a successful start up (think high tech), that went public, went to "trade school" (doctor, lawyer) and went to the upper reaches of their field, or worked long and hard at their job, saved and invested wisely and didn't pi## away their money on foolish things like new cars every two years etc.There are two sides to becoming a millionaire, getting it (offense) and keeping it (defense).
