You are too smart to leave 90K on the table for me to take.So any deal you are trying to offload must not be (by definition) a good one for me.I am a futures trader by trade.

Dabble with FOREX; time permitting.

Why property and not another venture, well, small business owners will give you a different answer than day traders, who will likely give you a different reasnoning than those on BP who have chosen to pursue RE.Maybe we all just grew up playing Monopoly.

I have adopted a traders mentality over the past 2 yrs.

And the foreclosure bidding services are analogous to the floor traders taking the order from the various firms' clients.

I am a technical trader and look at numbers more than anything else if I am trading.

Amateur traders should also not have their feelings in the game.As for the market falling, most traders were calling for a double dip (happens every time historically).

Unable to work for themselves, seeking the safety of an advanced degree, they have dropped 200K on an U of Chicago law school education and the best they can do is to work for a fund where the people making all the money are 20 and 30 year old traders.
