Get a good PM & listen to the guys on here that are into the areas you intend to tap into & then get a GREAT attorney, like ours :)

Vent away - we are here to listen :) 

You are correct, the podcast are an incredible source of information that help to listeners better understand what works and the different challenges that are out there.I'll definitely set up alerts and connect with BP members in my area to expand my network. 

That will also enable me to leave a legacy for my children and grandchildren.One of the guys in our office suggested that I start listening to Bigger Pockets and it was one of the best suggestions ever...it is truly life changing.

I've been listening to BP for about 1.5 years now.What are some things you would advise, would have like to have known, or wish you would have done better?

You should listen to @Paul Moore advise as it is always invaluable.

Hello everyone,I've browsed BP and listened to the Podcast over the past few years.

I have listened to the BP podcast for a couple of years now but am just becoming active on this site.

I have consumed vast amounts of content ranging from books, periodicals, newsletters, while also listening to over 1000’s of hours of podcasts and webinars.

Out of all the books i read and podcasts i listened too none of them warned me that i might crash into poles or ditches several times when DFD'ing.
