[Robin B.]

My name is Robin. I am 56 years young, married and recently retired; 3 weeks to be exact. I have the pleasure of living in New Orleans, Louisiana. Last week, I attended a Flipping Formula seminar with a girlfriend. I was not really interest in “flipping” or real estate, although I do enjoy watching various television programs about buying, selling, flipping and remodeling property. I only attended because my friend asked me to. However, the presentation was very good and we signed up for a 3 day course, which we are scheduled to attend next week. I have peace about attending the course and I am excited. I discovered Bigger Pockets as I searched for feedback on the company. Usually, I research before I commit but I did not because I had no intentions of signing up but like I said, I have peace about the decision and still do. I will be using this site as a vessel to get more knowledge. Having no experience in real estate, other than purchasing my home, my plans are to educate myself on the different options available in real estate investing and then I can determine my goals. Thank you and I look forward to being a part of Bigger Pockets network.

Hi welcome to the site! I hope the seminar you are attending is a good one and not a guru trying to scam you out of your money! I have been investing for a couple of years and almost everything you will need is on bigger pockets! So try and enjoy your seminar and learn a lot, but don't let them sell you on another package or mentoring or anything!! Everything you need you can find on here and no I have no affiliation with this site.
