It's beautiful here, yeah.

I love Reno. I can get pretty much anywhere in Ca in a short amount of time, have lots of recreational activities to do, and favorable taxes if you know what I mean .

I would like a copy of your book.

That's just about as perfect of a summary as their is! lol!

Very good story, I really enjoyed it. You said-
[quote=On the business/real estate front: The real estate market totally exploded during this time. Richard put a crew together and started doing fix and flips. He timed the market perfectly. When it came down (not a real crash…just a gentle downturn), we were out – but a few million richer.

So technically you made a few million in a few years?

Great, inspiring story:-)

Diane thank you for posting your story. There are a lot of points that I had suspected were true and I was delighted to see you validate them. Keep up the great work

Brilliance personified! Thank you very much for sharing your amazing story. I really appreciate it.

3) I listed out what the ideal seminar would be for me: more than one day (so you had time to really create an impact for attendees), in a beautiful location, with people who were proven “do’ers” (not just talkers), and with a big chunk going to charity.

Diane-Thank you SO MUCH for your success story.
1) LOL about the gold...
2) You just gave me a new personal goal/objective
3) I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that you came up with a solution that was what you wanted, lucrative and most of all, benefited CHARITABLE CAUSES! You are now officially my hero...

Thanks Diane for that post. I too am a UNR graduate and live in Northern Nevada so your story has really resonated with me. The summary is perfect! Thanks for the inspiration. I have work to go do

Diane, what a great story. I remember hearing about you several years back in my early Kiyosaki days and learning about TaxLoopholes.

You made many valid points and it was great to hear from someone who's travelled the road to wealth themselves. But this was what impacted me most:

The one thing we tend to forget about is how our actions impact others. By going Fastlane, we have the ability to impact more people in a bigger than if we just lived our lives being "small."

Thanks for that, marlitamc
