Your in the game you might as well play where you have the greatest chance of success.It is all about risk assesment in my humble opinionI prefer to risk everything I have because if i lose what I have I will have it all back in under 5 years most likely in 2 years.If I don't risk it I know I will be broke and unable to retire.Hmmm what is retirement......I don't think Ill ever do that one because my definition of retirement is to be able to go where I want when I want and do what ever I want to do.........So I make a few phone calls during the day and make more money for doing so......I will never quit teaching people This business because It has made me a truely free man.One will never be free until one has no attachments in life because attachments by the nature of the word attach us or tie us down......I am not attached to my money or things....I can't take them with meI am not attached to life.......when i die my body stays hereI am not attached to my wife and son .....I love them but they are their own spirits.......If we had never taken the risk to travel to the moon we would have never reaped the benifits of such a great undertaking..Sorry but I believe that all things are possible to him that believe...I guess it's kind of a sensitive subject for me.

typerider, you had me at ultimate fighting :) I am reading one book now, and am in the midst of researching through this site here.

The Maryland site says it will take 7-8 weeks after submitting the paperwork to have the process finished.I want to try to tie up the property NOW but I don't want to screw myself by not having an LLC.

What an awesome site this is with so much information no matter what your experience level is.

I'm sure you'll enjoy the site.

Welcome to the site Josephine.

I am happy to find this site. :D

This is a great site to bounce ideas off some experinced investors, and also to add your own experience to the group.

But, I recently came across this site, and decided to join in hopes of networking to meet other people in my field, and to get a birds eye perspective of the investing realm from those that do it everyday.

Welcome to the site Larry, stay in Chicago....
