I didn't mean to sound like a dick head, I was stating that for good purpose. 

I love advice from my "olders and betters," as the saying goes around here.I'm located in the heart of Culpeper, Virginia, which is a rapidly growing town on the outskirts of DC.

A rapid increase in price can erase a lot of mistakes. 

Kiyosaki and his team.2) Loans and financial lingo is completely over my head, anyway to expedite my knowledge in that as well?

Being a fan of Dave Ramsey will give you an idea of where my head is at.

We are not yet in Michigan, but certainly hope to head your way.
