New and enjoying it, from Buffalo, NY

[Shaun Carl]

I have been doing so much reading on here and finally decided I should start to post some things.

This site has helped to answer so many questions and hopefully will continue to do so.

I currently am a product test engineer from Buffalo NY. I love my city and the people here.

I would love to use REI to eventually retire by 45 and have enough passive income to buy a sailboat and start traveling with my wife and eventual kids.

I love feedback and constructive criticism as I feel you can always get better.

I hear lots of talk about real estate clubs in their home cities. Where would I go about finding these? Anyone from buffalo here?
