@Dawn AnastasiI think the thing I liked the most was that even though I was already aware of most of the concepts in it, I was still able to glean more in just about every section that gave me a new perspective on it.

My wife and I are considering creating a personal trust for ourselves that would hold all our assets, thus making it simpler to die.

I am very bubbly and pleasant open to talking to people (even when I am nervous)Things I like to do (when not super charged on building extreme wealth)-Watch Japanese anime and Read Manga books-Go outside to the parks and walk-Go fishing-chill with my friends and family-and study concepts of finance, economics, tax law and business & wealth building ( i really do this with my spare time too lol )Things I'd love to try doing-Go camping some more-Go indoor rock climbing-go Kayaking!

The concept is simple.

Coming from a stock/mutual fund mentality it's probably hard to understand the concept of investing in an 'inefficient market' like real estate.

Ask questions as they come up.Once you feel like you have the basic understanding of the concepts, start attending your local real estate investor association (REIA) meetings, network with other investors and see if you can visit some of their projects.If you're still interested at that point, but don't feel confident in your ability/knowledge, try to find a successful local investor who will allow you to volunteer your time in return for seeing how his business is run.

Quite frankly I never understood the "Open House" concept if used to sell or rent directly.

However same concept applies to a loss in value such as with rare sports cards or beanie babies, lose popularity and demand and lose value no matter how rare.I still stand by my statement that the US Dollar is backed by the productive capacity of the US economy.

The whole 8% concept makes the post confusing.

The look like they have a Team based concept that they use.
