Newbie to REI and BP: Dallas, TX

[Megan Caywood]

Hi,

My name is Megan, and I'm addicted to REI.

"Hi Megan"

I am originally from Houston, but moved to Dallas in 2005 which is where I reside now. Born and raised a Texan. I am currently enrolled in college full time and am pursuing my degree in psychology. I like to tell people my occupation is a Safety Engineer... I have an 8 year old daughter and my job is to keep her SAFE! I feel like I should be getting a raise, so I have recently drank the kool aid and am now labeling myself amongst the investor world. Funny enough, people always ask, so what exactly are you doing? Yeah, I'll get back to you on that is what I was thinking initially. I was mostly likely eu- googlizing something and came across a BP blog post or article. Of course once I read it I have to do more research and find out why the heck people are giving away so much FREE advice. I can only hope to be able to return the favor.

Thanks BP for existing to help people like ME... and everyone else on here too of course!

@Megan Caywood In the realm of investing, I always have a "good night." LOL- welcome to BP nation. When Paul Timmins gets on and welcomes you, be sure to follow his list of things to read and listen too. I've decided, between him and @Hattie Dizmond there is no need for me to expand the lists. They are both awesome, Hattie is local; Paul is knowledgable, they are by far the best welcoming crew I've seen on BP.

I hope, you have the best of success and learn as much as you can here.
