there is a reason certain investments require accredited investor or existing relationships.

It seemed to always favor the investor way to much just my opinion . 

Hey, I am a new investor starting out in Birmingham, Alabama.

Also, as a real estate investor, can I write off 100% of the education travel for real estate, such as the Bigger Pockets Cancun conference?

@David Kohutynski - Fellow Japan-based investor here.I would echo what you and Ty have already stated.
