(Super fun fact: a supreme court justice in one of those cases actually wrote in their opinion that the gov't might someday develop psychic mind reading technology, and built the implications of that into his opinion...)

My background is with high-growth technology companies doing online and direct marketing.

If you take advantage of new technologies: thermal mass electric resistance heating elements or electric air-2-air or ground-2-air heat pumps (especially ductless units with split heads), electricity can actually be cheaper.We have no oil heated properties and whenever we pursue a property heated with oil, we determine the cost of converting it to natural gas or electric and bake it into our analysis.  

TX is booming, oil, technology, healthcare and massive population growth here!

Recent graduates and some technology folks.

I'm a huge book wonk, and enjoy swimming, the outdoors in general, home brewing, travel, and cooking/bbq.My goals, to start, at least:Never stop learningNetwork - Partner - Develop relationships in the areaIncome - Income - IncomeDeveloping systems and working on time managementRehab jobs on the side to add to the ability to produce #3"Retire" from my day job by 40I'm also quite interested in personal finance topics, as well as harnessing the power of technology and data to make quick decisions; although I generally abhor black boxes.

Technology allows us to collaborate seamlessly with one another.

Of course, I readily admit that's about as helpful trying to self-diagnose via a symptom search on WebMD.It does seem to my laymen's eye that an STR could, in fact, be thought of as a modern-day boarding house, just with different technology and a remote host.

I LOVE that Chicago will be on the cutting edge of new technology.
