[i]Hi All,

I am new on here and wanted to start off this relationship by wishing each and everyone of you a very Merry Christmas and a very, not only Happy, but Rewarding New Year.

I am totally new at investing, even though I gathered (I also studied!) real estate information and put it in a website.

So, it looks as if I already know what I am talking about but that is not really so. :oops:
Hope that doesn't sound too dumb!

So, I would love to learn how to actually DO it.

Thank you.

Joyce[/i]

    Joyce, Welcome to the group! I used to live not too far from you.

    In fact... I worked out with the Governator, Mr Arnold Schwarzenegger in Claremont quite a few years back. I think it was 1985 ish.

    We were at a hotel/restaurant called Griswolds... Is that place still around?

    Anyway... Welcome and...

    Go get em!

    [i]Hi Eric,

    Thanks for responding.

    I actually live fairly close to where Griswold's used to be.

    Yes, used to be. I am very sad :violin: about it because their 'buffets' were delicious.

    I went back to Europe for a year or so (I am Dutch) and when I came back, it was gone.

    I never knew that Arnold S. worked out in Claremont!! Where?

    I'd love to go get 'm Eric; I need to learn how first, though. (Suggestions welcome).

    And what made you leave Southern-California? Did you get a chance to invest here?[/i]

    Arnold Schwarzenegger was there filming a movie... I can’t remember the name of the movie for sure... But I think is was Commando... the movie where the old style Ford Bronco drives down the side of the mountain... and his daughter in the movie was the girl that also played the daughter of Tony Danza in the TV show "Who's the Boss"...

    Anyways, they did some filming on Mt Baldy for the movie, and Arnold stayed there at the hotel for a while... They had converted two of the hotel rooms into a large gym where I worked out with him.

    Easy question... long answer. Sorry!

    And, no I really didn’t invest in that area… I ended up moving out of the area

    Merry Christmas!
