I am looking forward to reaching your upper levels of political and market awareness.I recently read the book "The Simple Path to Wealth" and the idea that I got out of that was to invest always and to stay strong (and in a strong financial position) to be able to weather the drops in the market that inevitably occur. 

Books - Zero Risk Real Estate by Chip Cummings is great.

Merely funding (transferring or acquiring) in a title holding trust is not, per se, a taxable event or avoidance device and the IRS treats as if vested in name(s) of person or entity who are beneficiaries.Buy the book from attorney Mark Warda from Jack Shea or others and read up on the topic.

I read a few books and also watched a few videos on youtube about how to wholesale with no money, credit, or license.

Great book and movie!

I've been reading Robert Kiyosaki's books and my perspective of becoming and being wealthy & rich have changed.
