If you haven't seen an email from me (check your spam folder too), email me and let me know.

Especially if you're getting help to do it.That said if you don't plan to use your degree in the relevant field going into debt to do so seems like an unnecessary gamble. 

Trading the big banks is just gambling on headlines at this point.

If you were a seasoned investors and knew all the risks you might encounter, that is a gamble you might want to take.

All you have to do is go to the channel (try not to puke while you're there) and at the bottom right click on the three dots, a dropdown opens and click "report", then click Spam/misleading, then click Scam/fraud, and leave a nice comment.

You have actually inspired me to create future projects of my own via the internet and the future success of that will all be thanks to you.Jon, you're firm but fair moderation of the forum is most certainly appreciated, I know that you're hard at work deleting and editing posts to help keep this forum spam free and content filled and its thankless work but you still manage to find time among your every day investing life to do so and you deserve recognition for that my friend.

There are no natural disasters. there are two major universities, there's a good amount of things to do, taxes are low (I see newer houses with lower taxes than some 100 year old midwest homes), the area is easy to get to, and the laws here are pretty friendly to investment as the government has taken the gamble of giving major tax breaks to corporations and this in turn has helped fuel the job market.As for the rental stock, the seasonal snowbirds seem to have enough money to either do long STR's or own second homes here.
