@David Bennett 

Welcome! 

I'm especially fond of the BP Podcasts. Do check them out.

Greg

@Patrick Cronin 

Listen to Mike Hurney, he's the man, knows his stuff. This is the way to go to get started in Boston. 

The other way is, "first, find two million dollars ..."

:)

Happy Holidays,

Greg

@John Gentile 

Hi John & welcome!

My suggestion is to listen to all the podcasts. Quite easy because you can do it at the gym, in the car, or pretty much anywhere. Not only enlightening, but entertaining as Josh & Brandon bring their unique Joie de vivre to each podcast

Also simultaneously use the site to search for any topic of interest.

Happy Holidays!

Greg

Welcome @Jodi Harrington !

All the advice here is great. I have a special fondest for the BP Podcasts that @Paul Timmins mentions above. They are informative and fun. I make good use of drive time by listening to them on my iTouch while stuck in Boston traffic.

:)

Happy Holidays, Greg

Hi Justin,

Thanks for the welcome!

Re. my investment strategy, great question. This first deal (private lending) was basically me putting my toe in the water. This is a 12-month balloon note @ 13%. Going forward, also interested in stable, passive income via buy & hold. Flipping? Not sure. I am reading J Scott's excellent book on the subject.
