Or, they just ask me for my contacts and proceed to destroy my reputation with the players in my market.All people want is something for nothing, instantaneous gratification, basically a diseased mentality.

Looking for some suggestions of who the players are in the market to connect with: *agents*wholesalers*property management*investors

Here's whyThere are a lot of big players on this site with mass amounts of knowledge and we all know our $0.02 is welcome and accepted.However knowing the level of talent on this site it can still be hard to sign in because nobody wants to look stupid.I, myself have anwsered some threads and compared my thoughts to some of the others peoples comments and felt " Why did I bother' they know more than I do.We know we are welcome.

I do work hard, and I'm a team player.

Completely different experience than with the other players.

its a fine line.. or a slippery slope as it were.I look at some of the Timber deals I did in the 90s  and what other timber players did and we hit those kind of metrics but were were trading timber deeds not real property.. not sure that its a difference.
