Many Americans are unhappy about the direction this country is headed.

I'll go on record to say that nobody knows what the future holds, not for the country, not for themselves, not for anything.

Yes, a tiny country in Europe, just south of Finland and we have 10 inches of snow here as I type this.

Unfortunately as others have pointed out getting people who are IN THE POCKETS of the health insurance and drug companies is not going to get US and answer.It's a pity that a country that prides itself on being THE GREATEST (sorry, maybe 30 years ago, but not anymore) that so many, pay so much for such poor results.Of course when (IIRC) 3 of the Republicans running for President can (with a straight face) raise their hand and say I DON'T BELIEVE IN EVOLUTION, it does not bode well for getting accomplishing anything requiring rational thought, scientific explanation, or common sense.For a nation that likes to constantly make fun of the French, we sure could take some lessons from them!

As I progress in my RE investments, I hope to provide others with insights that will help them prosper.If anyone needs help in this part of the country, let me know.

In total I have completed transactions in 18 countries including the US, and 45 states in the US (plus most Canadian provinces).I am always looking to learn more and meet new people (buyers, sellers, brokers, others).

Massachusetts, where I lived from birth until June '06, has the second to worst job growth in the country.

I am a National RE Investor myself and buy and sell all over the country.

That said, CA rental laws severely favor the tenant over the landlord and price to rent ratios are much higher in most parts of the state compared to other areas of the country.

Leads and deals are two very different things and in this market no matter what channel you choose you will get a lot of retail leads so you need to have a plan and systems in place to monotone those leads.All that being said I work with some of the top wholesalers and flippers in the country doing 300-500 deals year in and out and are netting over $1million a year in profit.
