Let me answer that with a series af questions: 1 - If you had to have surgery done, how important would it be to you that your surgeon had training, from others that were professional and experienced at that same type of surgery?

@Nathan SmithCollege is only worth it if you’re studying for something fairly specific like Nursing, surgeon, medical doctor, engineering, law, teaching, social work, research, etc, etc.

You want a surgeon that specializes in the kind of surgery you need, not a general practitioner.

Good to know I have a future surgeon in my family, four more years of training.

My surgeons were self-insured via an HSA and a risk sharing consortium.

"I was told by the agent that is the value their construction cost algorithm shows" - their algorithm suggests they can fully reconstruct a house for 230K?   

Yeah, just like how your brain surgeon is a Doctor, yeah, same thing, Doctor, Brain Surgeon, no real difference right.     

Insurance Check + Wholesaling the property in current conditionPrevious rent vs Future rent restored with brand new componentsLost rent from 2-6 months of reconstruction

I’d rather have a surgeon perform my procedure than someone who read a book and is doing it to save money.
