My brother has been a mortgaged-backed trader for over 20 years and my father was a bond salesman his entire life.

Don't get greedy, if you have the money, follow more of a management path, do ten deals a year for half the money, you'll do better than doing three trying to do more or everything.Your dad probably has a head for numbers, you concentrate on keeping the money safe he can see if things pencils out.

That's called by smart and long term greedy IMO.  

i had started with large outstanding loansjust had gotten lucky by doing some short flips...in the beginning don't be too greedy... 5k is what worked for me. several flippings..and i was debt free...good luck to you!

And don't get greedy!

I dont want to get greedy here.

I am definetly not trying to be greedy... at least for now LOL.I would be happy coming out with $10k on a very quick flip.

Alright I'm a new investor,Ive been calling people left and right filtering out non motivated sellers.Anyways I'm not a greedy person,so I'm willing to give the owner 60% of apperication and I keep 40%.I have two people on my list to call them up if their willing to do a L/O.The other two one I gotta call up in a couple of days to see if their still interested in the deal.Another one I'm gonna speak with him,tommarow to discuss more of the matter.I need a L/O contract along with splitting apperication.

i'm not a currency trader, but if you've been to downtown baghdad recently, you might not think it was a good idea.

That could be really really cheap or they could get greedy.
