Everyone has been so encouraging that I feel more prepared than ever to invest more.

@John DeMayo  thanks for the encouragement.  

@Jay HinrichsI would encourage you to listen to more of the podcasts if you have time ... they are fun and provide useful info at the same time.

Again, I encourage your will to learn more, but perhaps take it up on yourself to look for it instead of asking for it.
