THOUGHTS Where are we going? How do you plan to spend your hard-earned money? Do we let the government take it? Or, do you invest it in real estate for your family’s future use and your present enjoyment? Your message to Washington DC in November fell on deaf ears, considering the 2,000+ page proposed tax bill. Pay it forward and protect your assets. To quote one of our fellow Members and Property Owners – “I don’t want to be the richest guy in the graveyard.” – Bob Parsons, GoDaddy.com
