Hello BP,I am 23 years old, just starting a good career and I have some extra money currently in stocks that I would like to split into stocks and a real estate down payment.  I have never invested in real estate befo...

@Brianna SchmidtMy plan is to attend although I will not have any true networking supplies with me (Although I do use Vista Print, a lot, I have to design a new card for REI and put that order in next week).

They want 401k information, signed credit card authorization, all bank accounts, IRAs, tax returns.

Everyone does one small post card that looks like junk.

The HD card is great, no interest for 6 mo.  

Business cards are helpful, but not a necessity.  

This happens in the Credit Card arena all the time.... think about charge off etc.... 

If you pay a contractor by Credit Card will they receive a 1099-k and the need for me to issue a 1099-Misc go away?

Multiple credit card inquiries all count as individual inquires, and ding your score more if you are opening up a bunch of accounts in close succession.

I know interest rates are higher on these cards and my credit score would take a hit (as opposed to using my existing card) but does anyone have any experience doing this?
