With that being said, I see this Summit as a tremendous opportunity to take my REI education to a whole new level and learn from people I've come to know and trust here on BP.

By accepting a "loan" from the government via TARP and paying only (say) 5%, the banks received a subsidy.That definition seems tremendously arbitrary to me.

I enjoy the process and feel it's helped me tremendously to make the leap into this new venture of investing in real estate.

I look forward to speaking with, meeting and creating relationships with many of you here in the weeks, months and years to come, learning from the experience of and contributing to the success of others via meaningful collaboration as well as successfully fulfilling short and long-term REI goals that I've set.To an amazing, tremendous, exciting and profitable string of future yesterdays...

I've learned a tremendous amount that way and others can too.

Your opinions, advice, and feedback has helped me tremendously.

You hear success stories of those who are tremendously successful without a college degree but they are few and far between.I have a Mech Engineering degree and went into sales after college.

While this is one of your first topics, I've gained a tremendous amount of information from you already.

As a grad who did not get any RE experience with my education I still think it was tremendously helpful.

I see the tremendous amount of work many of you investors put in, as well as your willingness to give REI a good name.
