I guess an ancillary benefit is that IF you have a payroll and don’t want to share a policy with your employees because it is too generous then insurance products are an alternative with an expensive cost of admission.

So, after that small essay, I would like to solicit opinions as to whether having a Home Inspection License would be valuable enough to spend the money on the education or should I just learn the info on my own?

Today, admission to college is a function of wealth more than ever...sad!

Maybe a grad student would work just because they need quiet for their zillions of pages of reading and essay-writing each day... or maybe not because they just say "F it" and go to a coffee shop.Hell, I was in the Marines and if the Duty NCO was not doing his job well... guess who was flying off of 2nd story catwalks duct taped between mattresses.

LOL They don't have Frats but you could sell it to the college as an admissions building?

I would say that is free but my cost of admission was my investment which I made from my 401k.

I don't want to parrot all the benefits that we can all see on the membership page, but suffice to say, the private messaging, downloads, ads, advanced member search, et al, is 100 fold worth the price of admission.  

I was over in the blogs this morning reading Brandon Turner's latest essay, "The Definitive Guide to Using Seller Financing to Buy Real Estate" and, in the comments following the article there are two references to seller carried notes at 0% interest - one including an inflated sale price as an offset for no interest.

My guess is that you don't have any suggestions on where to invest because by your own admission in another thread on this site, all your properties are within, what was it, 15 miles of your home?

By your own admission, the house is worth $60K.
