    OK - I think I am all done with the content and marketing materials. In case it helps someone here... 1. I've had much better experience with UpWork than Fiverr - period! 2. Editing by a pro runs about $0.02 per word. I spent a bit over $1,200 to edit all of the text. 3. Conversion to Create...

    Well - finished recording the voice files for Audible. The book is about 45,000 words with about 3,000 more in additional sections. It really helped that I'd used audacity previously to record the voice files for CFFU. Knocked this book out in about a week! I think it came out well - people...

    Hah - yeah, it's looking like we're going to have a bit of a fun time, Justin :) And I know - years of working on stuff together and this will be the first time we meet in person. Kinda strange, if you think about it...Alas

    Yep - I remember crossing the street from a coffee shop on the way to pick up the kids from school when my wife turned to me and said - we're moving; figure it out. hahah And that was that. We traveled for about 9 months to different places, @MJ DeMarco, trying to figure out where. But, for a...

    It's hard enough looking for a primary. And it's hard enough to find a good investment. But, trying to combine both is indeed tricky. I studied this particular sub-market for 6 months. Looked at hundreds of houses. But, I think I figured out a synthesis that really works on both ends of the...

    I backed into it. Have been a landlord for over a decade. Came looking for something else and totally just fell into a formula that's stellar, in my opinion.

    That's exactly the point. Rich Dad says a house is a liability - he's right. Cardone says don't buy - rent, because you need locational freedom in this economy...he is also right. The way I am doing it negates both arguments, and does so with flair while 10X-ing my quality of life. I think it's...

    Why not? Moved from Ohio to Arizona about 11 months ago. Bought a house with a very interesting foot-print. Put the attached Casita on AirBnB and VRBO - this thing is paying for our stay big time! Locational Freedom - an ability to say I'm done here, going to go there now - House Hacking pays...

    Grant Cardone "Buying a House is for Suckers"

    EXECUTION 
    Why is it that every Tom, Dick, and Harry thinks real estate is about the numbers...The problem with an algorithm is that it is only as good as the inputs. You've got to know what's behind the numbers to make sense of the numbers, and it is apparent as all hell that most would know what numbers...

    Jason - leave him alone:)Regardless of how he comes off, he means well...as well as someone who just finished Rich Dad Poor Dad can. There is a difference between knowledge and wisdom - you arguing these points is somewhat silly. No one with any perspective can disagree with you, and yet this...

    How do people become Billionaires in Real estate?

    EXECUTION 
    Why so much emphasis on billions? Do you really need billions to live a nice life and set your kids up? Tell me - would it change your life to have $3,000/month of repeatable cash flow at 0% tax? If you think that would help - start there :)

    What if you collect $700/month of rent, but have to do an eviction and it takes you 2 months to fill the place back up. And 7 months later you have to spend $5,300 to replace the roof. Is that house putting money in your pocket then?

    I don't disagree with that - it seems that way... But, this thread is not Cardone talking - it's me offering commentary on Cardone. And thus, the question is not whether you care about anything he says, but whether you care for my opinion on what he says...and I hope that you do :)
