@Josh Mac Going to conferences and speaking to those who are creating notes, structuring them in a way that is a win-win. 

I am interested in attending the recently announced Value-Add Conference, but I’m weighing whether it’s the right move for my current stage.

Also, at what time does the conference start (at what time should we be getting there)?

Setup a video conference with one of the tax pros labeled an EA.

Over time I ended up speaking nationally at IMN, Five Star, and similar conferences on note investing and special assets.

I had met some of the gurus at conferences, but none of them actually had experience doing what they were trying to teach.

Add in tech conferences, corporate travel, and remote workers staying for extended periods and the result is a market with consistent demand across the entire year rather than just a traditional tourist season.

.: Found mine while attending a real estate/small business tax conference.  

I just saw a conference/guru session advertised where the financial expert/"pied piper" that was charging people for advice literally was working in a restaurant prior to that.

I never went back after the initial fast track and one conference; I could smell something wasn't quite right. i guess you stuck with it huh?
