@Charles KaoI looked at the population of Grand Rapids, and about 200k.

Hope this isn't hijacking the thread but for all those who invested passively in other syndicators' deals like @Charles LeMaire , @Oleg Shalumov and Account Closed I'm assuming you guys were all accredited investors, correct?

@Charles Soper You mentioned Michael Blank and I have been reading his book as of late.

Lifestyles unlimited, Brad Sumrok, 37 parallel, Michael Blank, Real Estate Guys, Charles Dobbens, and plenty more I’m sure I’m missing.

I've thought about the same ideas you pose in your question - some fantastic BP Podcast Episodes that relate are:#9 - Using Hard Money Lenders to Grow Your Business with Ann Bellamy - this one could be interesting for you because you could be the money side of a deal#28 - Note Investing and Raising Private Money with Dave Van Horn - If you sold a business at 19, you must be money savvy so check out note investing#138 - Self Storage, Systems, and SEO with Michael Rogers - Self Storage can provide very attractive potential depending on your geographic region...something I'm looking into myselfIf you find decision making & behavioral psychology interesting, some books I highly recommend are:The Power of Habit - Charles DuhiggInfluence: The Psychology of Persuasion - Robert CialdiniLogic of Failure - Dietrich DörnerLet me know how things go and good luckMike

That'll also help you find the people with what Charles mentioned.
