I have been living in this market for awhile, but recently I became active as an investor.

My name is Thurman (TJ) Kennedy and I'm an active duty Soldier currently stationed in Hawaii.

I'm currently active duty army and I want to start investing in real estate, I'm leaning more towards the BRRR meathod but I love the idea of rehabing houses and making something beautiful out of them.

I wasn't also under the impression that when you collect unemployment for 9 months, you should be actively searching for a job and not just "collecting" unemployment for 9 months...

SO---ARGUABLY, and it's true too---almost everything we do can be traced back to some sort of activity on one of those two business pursuits -  lunch with client, assistant, or prospect.... and dinner/drinks with the band or promoter. 

@Ray Pryer, Im active in the investing community in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas.

I can't remember the podcast number it was around 60 something an investor active on biggerpockets to this day stated being against section 8.

A lot of the kind of folks you're talking about are active here on the BP forums, so if you have specific questions about any of those areas I'd encourage you to ask :)If you're looking to meet people offline there are several good investor groups in the RI and southern Mass. area including RIREIG and Black Diamond REI.

I currently max out an active 457 plan each year and will continue to do so until I retire in 2026.  

Account Closed Hi Mario, I am active in Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton.
