    Man, I can't believe Holly left Hef for that guy. He's filthy dirty, and she's the symbol for all that is pure and good. :smxG: - Hakrjak

    Safe or Safety Deposit Box

    Get an actual safe. Don't buy from those safe stores that want to charge you $5000 for it... Just go to Sam's Club and pick out the best one they have for about $1000... It's basically the same, and will last through a fire or flood (Unless you are planning on burning the safe at 5000 degrees...

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Boy that entire 1st chapter is like a huge advertisement for that book, Gulch of Giants. I think he mentions it 25 times. ROFL... I wonder how much authors pay him to mention their books? - Hakrjak

    Just got my primary's Heloc statement today... 3.875% right now, interest only. That's still pretty good ;) At these rates -- it's not even worth your time to try to pay off these notes!?! - Hakrjak

    Has anyone completed a principle reduction on your home?

    REAL ESTATE 
    I've had atleast 5 friends try to get their loans modified, and after calling the "Work Out" departments of various banks (Mainly Countrywide) -- they end up leaving their contact info and never get a return phone call. Seems like the banks just are not interested. I'll bet it would be...

    1099's Capital Gains tax & Flips

    REAL ESTATE TAXES | REGS 
    It's none of my business if the guy pays his taxes or not, or if he's even filed taxes in the last 20 years... haha -- but I'm curious about this issue -- because I have hired a lot of subs over the years, and all I usually get are receipts. I.E. On the job I'm working on right now, I used...

    1099's Capital Gains tax & Flips

    REAL ESTATE TAXES | REGS 
    Guys - I worked with a contractor this year who is not comfortable getting a 1099 at the end of the year for some work he did for me. I know that's how my accountant has handled a lot of guys I've used in the past. Anybody know if it would be acceptable for my taxes, if I just get him to...

    Could you do it?

    MINDSET 
    I agree with the original poster... Even when I'm laying on a beach in Cancun, or sitting poolside at the Golden Nugget in Vegas -- My mind is still running, and I'm still thinking of ways to make money. I can't tell though if I hit a level where I didn't need to make any money if I would...

    Could you do it?

    Ha ;) Vacationing with children is not vacationing at all man, it's solid work from beginning to end. You can come home more exausted than when you left! LOL... Unless you meant leaving the kids with the grandparents and taking off, which I fully recommend. Cheers, - Hakrjak

    How often do you inspect?

    FTE REAL ESTATE 
    Our property management companies inspect on average about once a year, but each time we send their handyman out to repair something we always tell him to take a good look around while he is there, just in case. Besides the usual stuff like the furnace, etc -- Tub surrounds need to be inspected...

    Well Leave Then

    REAL ESTATE 
    Picture me as the little devil on your shoulder for this response ;) haha If there is nothing too worthwhile in there (Like TV's) then you can probably count on the fact that she was too lazy to move it and decided to just leave it. This has happened to me several times over the years. 10...

    Buying & Selling Gold Scrap / Broken Jewelry

    Ditto -- Wouldn't you be better off mailing your gold scrap to a friend, getting it insured for a few dollars, and then let it get "lost in the mail"? -- LOL... Viola! You just got 100% of cash value for your gold scrap! - Hakrjak

    Buying & Selling Gold Scrap / Broken Jewelry

    Just like a lot of things -- companies like this look like they are trying to buy something for nothing, and then resell it again at full price to make a profit. I'd guess from looking at their commercial that they pay maybe 10-15% of retail value? Cheers, - Hakrjak

    PETER2: In Memory, R.I.P.

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I didn't really know the guy (Unless he used a different name on the RichDad forums from the old days?) -- but it's always sad to see a fellow traveler's light extinguished. Best wishes to his family, and I hope he really went out well. "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the...

    How to find the best realtor when selling?

    REAL ESTATE 
    One method I've used with success is to poll mortgage brokers in your area. Usually if they've been around awhile they will have a good feel for the pulse of who is selling what, and how much do they sell, etc... Beyond that, I've heard a lot of Realtors make claims like, "I'm in the top 1%...

    How to Save Yourself in this Recession

    HOT! 
    1 reason why we won't see a return to double digit interest rates anytime soon is because the US government simply will not allow it. If this happens, this depression that we're in will turn into all out chaos and martial law would have to be declared to qwell the riots and insanity that would...

    How to Save Yourself in this Recession

    HOT! 
    I agree with not being certain the stimulus will do any good. Everything I have read about the "great depression" has indicated that it was extended because of FDR's spending and "New Deal" programs, and not shortened. You read about the depression in Europe, and it's just the "The...
