    And thus spoke Zarathrustra I agree. How does a long-winded fictional story convince anyone of your beliefs?

    Tell me more about this "manifesting money". How does that work? Are you saying if I just concentrate real hard then money will appear?

    I'm a big football guy so I read a lot of football books in addition to business and self help books. Tony Dungy wrote several books are they're all excruciatingly boring. Friday Night Lights didn't do it for me. Joe Gibbs' book Game Plan for Life was a bunch of fluff.

    Yeah I don't get the hype around Think and Grow Rich. Four Hour Work Week was a bunch nonsense, too. Hey guys, build a big business so you don't have to work in it and you get to play and travel the world. Great formula for success!

    I thought so, too. That guy is rich off selling that junk. It's like the premise MJ talks about. Did the guy teaching you how to be a millionaire get rich doing the same strategy? No, he wrote books and does seminars as a business to make all of his wealth.

    Need Advice Of Wise Men - Should I Buy Condo or Duplex

    I agree. Condos can be a pain in a$$ sometimes. My vote would be to go for the multi-family... as long as you're ok asking for rent and asking your neighbors to come see your cycle.

    Well I guess I'm looking for some validation from others that their stuff is legit, helpful, and not a bunch of fluff before I buy any of their books

    Advice needed for leasing a commercial building

    REAL ESTATE 
    How about calling or trying to meet with some of the bigger listing agents face-to-face. I bet some rapport building would help with them sending you some as it hits the market or if they hear of anything available. Your attitude toward the agents, warranted or not, could improve if you want...

    MARKETING 
    Can anybody discuss Dan Kennedy and GKIC's philosophies on Direct Response Marketing. I've tried to learn a little by watching some of their YouTube videos but they talk in circles and never really say anything with much substance. Does anybody know about their stuff?

    The Big Short - Hilarious!

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The book is a very interesting character study on people who saw and exploited misappropriated value in the market. Michael Lewis is my favorite author. I read everything he puts out. Working on his latest book "The Undoing Project" although it's been a little boring so far. I liked "Big Short"...

    Hold or Sell?? 100k profit on Duplex

    HOT! REAL ESTATE 
    Sell it. If the rent hasn't increased with the value then sell it. Take the proceeds and buy 2 more rental properties in a location where you can get 1% rent-to-value (and no less than 0.9% rent-to-value). The other option is to sell it and sit on the money. Wait until the market corrects or...
