    Oh, you didn't mention all your e-commerce skills. Why would you care what a bunch of tools on Cityfeet think. If you're willing to become an expert in excel and bang out 75-100 calls a day (sales) you won't be sleeping in your car for long. You're probably right, but it sure is nice in winter.

    Note to self: buy a 7-11 in Scottsdale. Seems to be a lot of folks with no money moving there. Like California in the 80's..."Where are we going?.. California...what are we gonna do there? don't know - we'll figure it when we get there."

    I am not a "Digital Native" so I cannot speak to some of the points made about the architecture of e-commerce and your efficacy in your approach; and I am also not a psychographics expert, but I would guess that most popular figures in rap have achieved their success with considerable support...

    Great Question. The small things: Stop taking pictures with your shirt off. Stop taking pictures with money. Stop taking pics with trendy stuff- the group photo with you and the menacing scowl and the oversize clock necklace will forever be on gam gams wall. Stop surfing constantly- get out of...

    Real estate investors - how do you get more properties?

    REAL ESTATE 
    Another option is to look into crowd funding sites, e.g, Realty Mogul, Rich Uncle. Obviously you do not get the element of control, however; you do get a glimpse into syndicated RE strategies you would normally not be allowed. It would be like looking over @SteveO shoulder when he's doing DD...

    ^^^^Spoken like someone who remembers what happens when things go bad. Steve O is right.
