I’m constantly amazed by the doors that keep opening up just by going out and meeting new people. I used to hate it, and I’m still not very good at it. But GEEZ has it been worthwhile. What has your experience with networking been like?

Drama. With three daughters a wife and my mom at home you’d think I’d get my fill there. Nope. This apartment stuff is full of it. I think I’m a magnet for it. Or maybe it’s just standard operating procedure for commercial real estate.

If you’re a corporate person then I know you can appreciate my pain. You have a 401k. You have a crappy plan that only lets you invest is 4-6 crappy funds. Or you can keep it in cash and at least not lose anything except upside. Well I’ve decided to pursue a different option – and put at least part of my 401k to work – in real estate!

Had coffee with a friend last night to talk real estate. He’s a corporate guy and he’s looking for a way out as well. It was an interesting meeting.

My Private Clients are having a blast. Did you see the picture with scotch and cigars after the closing? They’re making a great ROI and having fun at the same time. Isn’t it time you joined?
