No… I’m Sydney based. So I guess you won’t have the pleasure of meeting me so soon… hehehe (and vice-versa)
I do wish i had seen that group earlier, but I wasn’t too keen on having to pay 30 bucks. But it’s once a year so I’m not complaining…
Anyway, if you feel like it, my group is free (http://groups.google.com/group/ozinvestors), so you are welcome to join. And we’ll see where it goes from here!
Thanks for the advice and I hope to meet you soon!

Yes I signed up, it is not so much a forum as a place to stay in touch with community members. We discuss things like meeting venues, resources and topic ideas.
I am looking forward to meeting you, feel free to PM me for more details or for any other info.
[jerry]P.S. By the way are you Brisbane based? There are communities all around Australia, but we only run the one here…

Lena,
I do admit I hadn’t read the website much. But I trusted your judgement and signed up to it. What do you say?
Have you signed up too?Cheers!

You said you’ve been to http://www.888abundance.com but are not interested because it is selling something? You have got it wrong, the founder Gary Seeto may be selling something, but that is not associated with the investment community.
The members meet up and chat, exactly as you said. Gary is letting us use a forum section of his webite to stay in touch with group members around Australia, similar to Steve’s forum which we’re all in now. Being here doesn’t mean you have to buy Steve’s books…

Thanks for the input, wealth4life.
I think you have something that works and thus you have a better feedback on what works and what doesn’t. Your ideas are good and way more advanced than what I came up with. I just came up with an investment group so people can learn from each other. But of course I realised the lack of a foundation.
I reckon the important thing is to actually DO something. So when they said it would be good to come up with a young investors club (If anyone sees ASIC tell them I’m overseas) I just decided to create one and become more specific as we go.
I liked your ideas. Would you be able to empart more on how you created what you have? (I’m not asking for specific details – don’t worry. Just how you and the other in your group came together and how you started).
Cheers,
PedroHi everyone,
I went to that website you recommended me but I had already seen it before. I didn’t really look through it extensively – however, I naturally avert any website that is selling anything. I don’t really think it matches with what I want to create.
I want to create a social community for investors to get together and chat.
Now I know you might say that this forum promotes this, but… well, I think it doesn’t. Forums to me are something more impersonal.
The idea to me is to create something more personal, put a face on the investors you’re talking with, not just a smiley. It’s an opportunity to really get to know others – specially others that are like minded to you.
We all have good friends, but sometimes when it comes to our views and ambitions are friends are unsupportive or cynical. Wouldn’t it be good having a circle of people that believe the same as you and spur you on?
Specially if they are not only doing it via “times new roman†but also by personally telling you this!?Tell me your thoughts and perhaps we’ll end up meeting up for a beer!
Cheers,
Pedro [biggrin]Hi,
I’m also young and interested in property investing. Has anyone formed a club of such for Sydney???
Cheers!
Pedro
