Like black or Latino activists who insist that a particular congressional district should be represented by one of their own, the disgruntled white working-class, non-college-educated voters might be demanding that their majority status still translate into something at least symbolically meaningful to them.But that doesn't make it right.

Once locked up, you can feel comfortable with discussing all of the property details.You really can't do it any other way, because nobody is going to buy a property that they can't look at/get any meaningful information on.Make sense?

I wouldn’t buy and hold most deals in this market, but I have properties in Sacramento, and I’m not throwing myself on the railroad tracks either.Fresno has one of the highest poverty rates in the country, and the construction of a new college in Merced in 2005 sparked real estate construction and investment in a lightly populated area.

I used the appreciation in my primary residence and dove deep once I had the financial strength to make a meaningful purchase.Replacing $200k of income is pretty large gap to fill. 

Now you have cash into the deal, so a "cash on cash" return becomes meaningful.

I'm sure it's a heavy work load to get going but that goes without saying in any meaningful endeavor aka get out of the kitchen if you can't stand the heat etc etc. ;-)If you do, bravo because you're in one serious minority or fraternity/sorority of overachievers!  

Set a specific, meaningful goal.

The travel time to Reno is about the same as traveling to Reno from Sparks. 

Most sparked an idea that was a spinoff outside of what was being taught at the time.  

You're wrong a lot, but creating conversation over meaningful and interesting topics. so thanks for that.
