Hi, my name is Yoshio Sugawara. I work with computer software. I'm 55 and have loved living in the Pacific Northwest for about 14 years. Ironically, as I write this, we're having the worst 2-week snow storm ever, some say. I still plan to at least keep a place here for visits.

I have to admit I've been involved in real estate investing pretty much as a 'thinker' rather than as a 'doer'. I've got courses upon course in my office. I'm trying to make much more of an effort to change that by getting involved in forums like this. I'm already finding that there are much more experienced members here, so I should learn a lot. Hopefully I'll be able to contribute, as well.

Hey Yoshio and welcome to BiggerPockets! At some point you need to stop and put the information you've learned into action. It sounds like you're getting to the point where you're ready to do that.

Start to put together your plan of attack and stick to it. Do you know what area of real estate investing you're going to be pursuing? Get that business plan whipped up and if you need some help with it, let us know and we'll do our best to help out!

Good luck.
