I'd say continue going to Law School.

I am continuing to educate myself, I have a website, and am just trying to network as much as I can.

We went out, purchased an REO, updated it, sold it for a pretty hefty profit in about 2 months, got hooked.My education is now continual, there are things I want to move into that I have no clue about, and want to start learning.

Im going to continue doing it, because Im a firm believer in staying focused and sticking to it.

But I am buying silver TODAY and I will continue to buy if it drops below 16$ an oz.

I don't trust his opinion over a single environmental research scientist.Also, I find it hard to believe that the majority of the scientific community (except for a small faction of Scientists who are continually recycled through Fox News and YouTube documentaries)Many of these scientists are that are featured work for Washington think tanks funded by Exxon mobile....The Biggest Company on Earth....several such as Dr.

Not yet convinced that pouring my time and energy into RE will yield appreciably better results than pouring it into the businesses I already own.Been spending lots of time doing math about it all, and the business continues to win out with cash flow, profitability, and wealth accumulation compared to time and energy expended on RE investment.I'm still very interested in the idea, but I need to be convinced before I go down the road.

As for buy and hold, get an area that will appreciate fastest in this market...You can retire early :DWith the lending market continuing to tighten, the increased housing inventory, and the recession, it is much more difficult and "risky" (very loose term) to flip in these market conditions.

I wanted to thank all of you for participating, and I hope that we can continue to grow this list.Please help us to gain some attention by submitting the post on Digg, Stumble Upon, Del.icio.us, Reddit, Propeller, etc.Thanks!

If you're in a market like Detroit, with a continuously declining population, then regardless of how cheaply you buy the house, it may still be a loser (because you can't keep it rented).Mike
