@Edit B.

I've also included a pretty massive list of Real Estate books I've seen recommend elsewhere on BP (they are the only titles I haven't personally read (mostly), since I'm new to RE)Here's the list of my favorite books: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s87/sh/5fa5f81b-3fe8-472c-9b51-bd2bbd263138/20cd1586eb8c3f083350c02cdc9a8ced*Getting started in Startups* The Lean startup, – Eric Ries Seth's RevRoad Deck: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1dE7KFYFvVUUUkhWqffodrnqRRDVTZkPN2L13yVRts2o/edit?

The only work she could find was editing professional papers which was a very part-time job and for far less than minimum wage.

And a 5 or 10 year old PC with an SSD and at least 8 gigs of ram will do anything but video editing or high end gaming.I know I won't convert the diehard Mac users, but I prefer Windows and would use Linux before I would go to a Mac.

@Maryanna, I just finished writing an article about investing from overseas, and I'll try and remember to let you know when it is edited and posted.

It's called "The Hands-Off Investor:  An insider's guide to investing in passive real estate syndications"I'll show new and experienced passive investors how to find and screen syndication sponsors and investment opportunities, along with a healthy dose of advanced real estate investment analysis (so that passive investors can spot when sponsors are manipulating projections).The book is written, and now in round two of editing.
