From Blackboard to Bedrooms: Homes Born from an Old Board School
EXECUTION REAL ESTATEHere's another thought on this subject. I keep coming across young people who are building empires and kingdoms on their computers in virtual games. I keep telling them to get out and buy some property -- the real stuff with buildings located on -- imagine this -- real dirt. They can build a...- WJK

From Blackboard to Bedrooms: Homes Born from an Old Board School
EXECUTION REAL ESTATESubmit your plans and get some feedback from the Planning Department. You don't have to be perfect to submit. Every day is valuable, and as they pass, it means the project is going to cost more time and money in the end. Vacant buildings don't improve with age like fine wine. The damages that...- WJK

From Blackboard to Bedrooms: Homes Born from an Old Board School
EXECUTION REAL ESTATEMy comment is NOT meant to insult. Your lack of experience and forward progress over the last year is concerning. I do everything and I make all decisions according to the odds of completing the project on time, within budget, and without too many glitches. I have bought other people's projects...- WJK

HOT! CHATI just bought a few shares of domestic mining stock today to go with the ones I bought months ago. The price today is about 40% down frrom their high earlier this month. The original shares I already have, before this addition, are up today more than 75%. So I figured I cannot lose by buying a...- WJK

Weekly Progress: What will you get done this week?
GOLD! HOT! CHATMy New Building: We’re working on putting the T-111 siding on the outside of Section #1. We had a major storm off the Pacific Ocean. Our power has been out twice recently for about 12 hours each time. We’ve had to slow down on our work there to work on the rental units. The weather and the...- WJK

HOT! CHATThere's always another recession in the cards since it is a cycle. What goes up must come down, etc. It's all about timing. I don't feel one coming anytime soon. I feel us in an up phase right now due to Trump and his policies. I think it's gonna be go, go, go for a while. The last time I...- WJK

Think Beyond the Mirror
MINDSETMy greatest strength has been that I started doing stuff before others told me that I couldn't do it. Since I was already there -- making these businesses and activities a success -- I used to just laugh at their cautions and carry on. My reaction REALLY made them crazy mad. I like my peace and...- WJK

Discipline is easy, actually
MINDSETBut what about habits? Do they fall under your view of discipline? I can do the same things every day mindlessly without any real & immediate commitment to those issues. I'm not sure it's discipline under your umbrella. Maybe it's just my normal routine. That's why I add a new habit to one of...- WJK

HOT! CHATYou might be right. Part of your conclusion may be colored by where you live. Europe, as a region, in my mind, has a lot of problems to solve to maintain its voice and power. The US is struggling to re-shuffle the world order. No one knows where everyone will end up in that revised pecking...- WJK

HOT! CHATI have done my best deals when I counter the herd. When they go left, I go right. And I am ready for them to make their turn with my plans and resources waiting in the wings. I prepare carefully for those moments so I can jump on them. Being ready and clocking those turns is the secret sauce in...- WJK

Weekly Progress: What will you get done this week?
GOLD! HOT! CHATOur New Property: Last week, I checked with the Planning Department about our subdivision to split the lot. They have the mylar from the surveyor. It is going through its 60-day review period. We should be ready for the final approval in November, unless there are difficult corrections. The...- WJK

HOT! CHATYes, there are always people who say that the bottom is going to fall out and we're all going to go barefoot, hungry, and shortly be dead. It sounds like I'm a little bit older than you. I've seen the ups and downs over the years. I've seen people sell everything that they have, to sit on the...- WJK

HOT! CHATThe S&P closed Friday at 6,552. That's an 85% drop you are predicting. Are you buying the TSLA based on their AI development, space program, or for another reason? Parking your cash in money market accounts appears to be very bearish to me. What are you thinking and seeing in the future?- WJK

HOT! CHATIf they go down tomorrow -- we'll see what happens. And if the market tanks, how deep will it go, and how long will it last? You're right to be ready to buy.

HOT! CHATI'm not worried. Those are small, side investments that don't affect my cash flow streams. I have no control over the stock market. I can afford to park a little bit of money there and see what happens for the fun of it. I can buy stocks that are in market segments that have potential. So far...- WJK
