Tom what is your sponsor promote since no pref?

These two Meetups are something I build over years of holding events, promoting, paying for venues, food, drinks, etc... 

Plenty of well-positioned restaurants with great food and great service have failed just because they didn't get enough traction before the promoters ran out of money.If you buy multifamily real estate, however, you're buying an existing income stream.

It was more motivational than practical, I don’t feel like I could flip houses as easily as they promote at this point, they do upsale the software and the advanced training as essential but you would have to invest more money 

In fact, very rarely do I find Investors from BP promoting the way I invest.

(And just in case you were wondering, I'm not promoting myself in the least with this post, as I personally don't engage in general brokerage outside of immediate family/friends.

However, you cannot use any means of general advertising or solicitation to promote the offering.

I'm an Army vet myself (medically retired last year) and my brother is a C-17 pilot.This is slightly off topic, but one of the best things I did in my career was every time I got a raise or promotion, I socked that money away because I figured I lived on that pay last year, I can this year, too. 

The only snowball I'd worked on was toward a career where I'd get more and more work, less and less time, and always thinking "I'll be happy after the next promotion/raise/etc."
