Every time I start to feel like I 'wasted' my time on my degrees, I am reminded in some small way how those choices have helped/influenced me today.For me, it was a B.F.A. in graphic design and photography, and then an M.A. in Digital Media & Art/Technology.

Thanks Again,Josh Commercial property will be influenced by a lot more factors. 

I can influence outcomes much easier.One will hear throughout your life, that money does not buy happiness, and while that might be partially true, money sure does provide more happiness "options", as well as opportunities to help others.People are BS'ing to say otherwise.  

I agree about the influence some bloggers have.  

They don't always get it right or correctly anticipate external influences on a given neighborhood, but there is typically a lot of psychological investment in zoning.  

How much your house is worth depends on the assessed value which is often influenced by sales prices and has nothing to do with rental income.Most cities won't even drive up and down the streets to look for things. 

That can influence a lot of decisions.

GROW THE SPHERE OF INFLUENCE as well as your methods to finding those derivative deals....

If you want to shout nasty names at everyone on this thread who disagree's with you, then might I suggest one thing that took me a while to learn in my personal life... if you want to influence people into your way of thinking, then yelling and bickering at everyone saying they're stupid and inferior when challenged will never get the job done.

I see influencers (as recently as today) selling mastermind courses, being featured on podcasts and conferences, because they have scaled their door count over the last year, and only got started 18 months ago.
