If you are talking about the points in the top user page, it is just a total of how much you have contributed to this site. It consists of starting new posts and answering questions or helping other DG students. It is on a voluntary basis, but I would encourage you to get involved.
Note: It is an unwritten rule that you do not jump into someones post and ask questions for yourself. If you have questions, start a new post just like your journal and ask a question. I am sure you can see that there is a ton of people out there that will try to help you.....Jan

Just fyi, i lost the other deal, found out it is already under contract for 31/2 months & there is a problem with the title. good thing i did'nt get it. im just trying to work as a birddog, need to get money fast, & i fiqure i can use more learning. thanks for everyones input. almost 8:00 time to make more signs bye for now. :)
Ken,
I talked to a representaive from Ameraco yesterday. They wanted $495.00 for their software program that supposely assists you on locating properties, tutoring you on how to make offers, then passing said offers on to their office for review. He claimed that they worked with thousands of investors who will pay you between 8-10% of the deal, depending on how much profit you have built into each deal submitted.
My personal opinion, if I am working to submit offers to your investors, then you had better be assisting me for FREE. Obviously, I took a pass. If you do pursue this path and find it beneficial, drop me a line and let me know whats what. Thanks!
