@Taylor L. I invite you to lose your doubt and I'll invite you to see the system work live tomorrow. Because life isn't about picking winners, it's about RISK and its avoidance. Most people just look at the world ineffectively. If you don't want to put any time into getting to know the invention, pass up the opportunity but your pessimism may tip an optimist away from the greatest gift a strange has to offer them. 

Just got my flight! Looking to share a kick *** airbnb if anyone is interested in some off site networking. PM me. @Dave Van Horn it'll be great to see you! @Bastian Kneuse you can hang with me. You'll get the hang of the conference in hours. Everyone is cool. 

If anyone is holding back from going because going alone is intimidating I'm going to be forming a group of those who want to network before the event so they have a few recognizable faces the day of the conference. PM me if you are interested.

@Ivan Barratt wouldn’t you see it as an upside for an investor who could read the market to be involved in that market?

@Taylor L. But what if you had access to an invention that told you when the REIT would be moving positively. So, control isn't needed.

The market has retracted, true. The President has engaged in some fiscal bullying and the Chinese are pushing back. That's what is supposed to happen as our policies and buying practices from China should tighten as all the big guys already took advantage...what does that mean? For us, more expensive products and no more $5 tshirts from WalMart. But, it may also cause a resurgence of AMerican manufactring! So, thats a positive bounce.

The large institutions BEG for these micro recessions. It allows them to take profits in the fall and rise again of their stocks. And if you don't think the big institutions aren't helping the market move one way or another, YOU're nuts.  

SO, buy in the dips. According to Sundial Capital Research, since 1929, the S & P 500 has experienced a 16-fold drop of over 5% over two weeks after hitting a historic high. And by 10 times, the index has rebounded to a new record . Also, w 2020 being a re-election year...don't you think some economic heroism doesn't bode well for Trump!!! Bears stay away from Republican presidents for the most part.

Look to REIT stocks!. With many of them providing quarterly and even MONTHLY dividends to their share holders...it begs the question why a passive investor would bother investing in a syndication, doesn't it?

@David Van The Bears have lost to the bulls who will be running here for a bit. I don’t think this is the “big” one everyone sees coming but I do think it will be a retraction. The big dump would happen if Trump loses.

@D'Andre Byers here is the hard truth. Maybe she’s just NOT your girl. Half of us choose wrong. It’s basically a roll of the dice whether your marriage will work or not. So, 1) get a pre-nup. There is nothing more romantic than wanting to take care of your partner and self when you are both in love. 2) If it’s than important to you and you want to hustle...maybe you need someone else.

I always said I wanted an engagement ring with an address and Cashflow.

I married a slug. I’m a born again entrepreneur!
