Boy is that the truth!
And this is likely why so many people become frustrated today. They buy into the "instant this, instant that" hype that usually only separates them from their money.
I'm developing a "tortoise vs. the hare" market timing method for getting rich in real estate. Being "persistent yet patient" is one of the key human attributes needed to profit from this method and your post gave me a few new and inspiring ideas.
Good post.
