Random Thoughts for the Week (Inman, Raincamp, Stockmarket)
Each week we post some of our random thoughts which primarily relate to real estate and business.
1. Inman Real Estate Connect NYC 2010
Stephanie and I are thrilled to be going to New York City this week for the Inman Real Estate Connect conference. They are bringing in so many experts as speakers. This conference last year set the tone for our business in 2009 and really helped us grow as bloggers and stay ahead of the curve when it came to Internet Marketing and real estate technology.
2. Raincamp
This year the added bonus will be Raincamp the day before the conference ! This will be my first Raincamp which is put together by the Active Rain gods ! From what I have read, this may even be more of the highlight than the Inman conference !
3. Stock market
Since mid last year, I have been quite bullish on the market. That continues to be the case going into 2010. The first week of January alone was an impressive one for all the major averages. I believe that the 4th quarter earnings (which begins this week) will be exceeding analyst expectations which will continue to drive the market higher.
Tax Tip: You can still deduct your SEP or regular IRA contributions for 2009 as long as the contributions are made before the tax deadline. Consult your accountant or CPA for more info.

Looking for your posts with tips you learned in NY. I am sorry I can't attend.
Looking foward to seeing you tomorrow at RainCamp. It is going to be quite a week for Social Networking.
Hi Chris & Stephanie,
Looks like you are in for a real treat with the Raincamp and the Inman conference. Will look forward to hearing your thoughts on both!
Really looking forward to meeting you and Stephanie tomorrow, Christopher. I'll be easy to identify - the one who looks like a kid in a candy store...
Christopher & Stephanie, I really wish I could have made it to the NY event, someday I'll have to meet my A/R friends at one of the raincamp seminars. Have fun and good luck to you all.
Christopher and Stephanie, Sounds like you're going to have a fun AND productive week. My daughter Laura is going to Raincamp and I think she'll love it!
I hope you guys have a great time at the conference. I wish I was going to be going.
You certainly have a lot of balls in the air!
best in 2010
your friend in Charlottesville!
HA. I am sitting right behind you at Raincamp. Cool stuff.
Bill you should be here.
Christopher and Stephanie, I'm listening to the NY Times guy. He's talking about new tech toys and makes me want to go on a shopping spree!
