So in the end we had no choice but to become actively involved to insure survival.

The beginning stages of how you form and run your real estate business, and the habits you make along the way, will be crucial to your survival in this brutal business.

Are we as a world going to survive this current economic crisis?

However, no business can be successful if it can't survive the good times and bad.

It's pretty damn hard to survive on $1200 bucks a month max any way.

If I own and run a business and then get too far into debt and do not have enough income to survive, what happens?

If your degree helps you to survive comfortably, then I think it's a good thing.3) I have never heard of anyone saying their degree prepared them for creative real estate investing4) Most of the math we need to do deals is nowhere near as complex as finance classes.

In fact, we spent way too many years 'learning' about RE and not 'doing' RE... but that is neither here nor there, just part of our process... what matters is that we're taking action now...I hope some day to have a more stable platform in our RE investments to jump in and learn stocks better... but for now our main goal is survival (see our profile for our goals), not enough margin for error to make mistakes in the market.

I look for interesting properties to flip at 50% on the dollar and hope to be able to survive this crazy downturn in the economy.Hobbies are SCUBA, Auto Racing and Photography
