Its prognosis is usually not good.I apologize for the long post but, as you can tell, I’m passionate about public health.

@Aaron Yates it's apparent that your posts lack one thing; passion!

Someone might pay 1,000 for something and others say "looks ugly and throws in the trash can".I have always loved sports but realize others might see value doing something else.If you understand the game there is a passion to it and a high level of difficulty that people can't fully comprehend watching on TV.

However, I do admire for desire, determination and passion and wish you the best.   

It's also awesome to see such diverse a diverse group of intelligent people discuss the issues of the day with passion, and yet with respect for anothers ideas.Mark

ben, I had assumed that rei was not only your vehicle to financial success, but was also your passion.

My passion is helping houses sell faster and for more money.

I am hungry so starving myself of this passion is not in the cards.

Find someone who truly enjoys talking shop and is passionate about REI.  

There are alot of brokers/agents who barely squeak by but they do not usually have the passion and drive everyday to get better and better.I know if someone mentiones to me about commissions and being a cheapo when they call me then I e-mail them or tell them on the phone in a matter of seconds they are not for me.
