What's your RE strategy after the robots take over?

About 60% of the jobs held today are expected to be automated within 10 years or eliminated and grouped into other positions.There are already electronic kiosks for order taking, robots that cook food, construction machines that are automated by satellite from a remote location.People think they can just demand 30,000 a year to flip a burger.

I was around during the 80's when robots were going to take everyone's job in 5 years.  

I'll be reaching out to you since we share a few things in common (I'm also a ME, currently working as a robotics programmer and paint engineer).Best of luck!

Others rocket up pretty well as you move up the ranks.The other question is will your jobs be at risk in the future to robots for automating or artificial intelligence??

But we are human and not robots without emotion so I don't think truely that emotion isn't removed out of that equation. 

Negotiations, deal-finding, financing, tenant placement, maintenance, you name it - until we have robots that can do plumbing, electrical, property maintenance and listen to your tenants ***** about the noisy neighbors, a people-person will beat a systems person all day long when you are starting out.  

A GSE (Fannie, Freddie, etc) will typically be more robotic and focus on hard numbers like DTI.

Remember that hand-written mail with a first-class stamp has a better chance of being opened (51% better, I've read).I know of at least one service which has a factory full of robots "hand writing" letters and envelopes with "Bic" pens.

One option to stay liquid and still see some double digit gains on your money is robotic trading software - give u Hedgefund level automated trading and it mitigates downside Rick - pulls you into cash position if any stocks get outside normal dips. http://flipstockmarket.com I've held my money here (15%) return and just pulled some out for a commercial deal.
