    Always get multiple bids....

    REAL ESTATE 
    Yeh, crack heads are where I draw the line. Why would I use a crackhead for $8 an hour when I can get a perfectly good drunk for $10 an hour that shows up on time and is actually able to function between the hours of 8am-5pm? :) :groove: - Hakrjak

    The Fanny / Freddy 4 house rule...

    REAL ESTATE 
    Yep, they can -- but like I said above -- You'll pay more in closing costs and a higher rate usually. Also every bank I talked to in town wants more of a down payment... I believe 30% was the standard they were asking for. They know they've got you over a barrell, so they are ready to bleed...

    Always get multiple bids....

    REAL ESTATE 
    The reason you should always get multiple bids for any project or work you are having done... This is not a joke at all -- Check out these bids I got today for some work on my latest flip house: Stucco front bricks on house: Contractor #1: $5750 Contractor #2: $805 Install bath tub in bath...

    The Fanny / Freddy 4 house rule...

    REAL ESTATE 
    Hey Gang, As most of you know -- this year in an effort to protect us from ourselves, the "Gubment" -- put into place a rule through Fanny & Freddy that you can only own 4 properties at one time. Now, I know that one way around this rule is to use portfolio lending, which is privately...

    What do you want to be when you grow up?

    I don't think I ever narrowed it to one choice -- I remember being a kid and just saying, "I want to be rich when I grow up..." -- And then when I got to Jr High & High School, it evolved into "I want to be an Entrepreneur when I grow up"... - Hakrjak

    Barack Obama How do we capitalize?

    There have been a few of these threads in the past and they all seem to degenerate into George W Bush bashing sessions, or pro-Obama monologues. 99% of you guys have no idea what you're talking about, so why not get back to the business at hand? I wish there was an option to take speed away...

    Las Vegas Real Estate Market....

    REAL ESTATE 
    This is true, although I do know a lot of guys who made a lot of money in the short term off of appreciation, most of them fell a$$-backwards into it and didn't even know what they were doing. The only appreciation I have ever got off a property I have owned (And I've been in this business...

    Vince is Back with "SlapChop"

    FUNNY 
    That's a great example of taking a product that has been available for awhile under different names, and just marketing the hell out of it. You could do that with just about any gadget. - Hakrjak

    Memorable moments in your quest toward the fastlane!!

    My most memorable was when I first earned my large enough chunk of money to where I was able to pay off all of my credit card debt, and actually had enough money to pay off my car loan also. I owed something like $15,000 on the car, and I went down to the bank and asked the teller what the...

    Immigration?

    MINDSET 
    This reminds me of SNL this weekend when they said something about Jewish passover, and how Jews all over the world say, "Next year in Jerusalem..." when they toast, but Jews in Jerusalem say, "Get me the hell out of here!" when they toast ;) LOL... Best of luck to you, and only you can...

    How to Find Deals

    REAL ESTATE 
    Just noticed this thread -- There is no shortage of deals out there today, and they're everywhere. I guess it depends on what you call a deal. If you're waiting for that one elusive deal where you could make $60k, you might work on that day in and day out for over a year to just locate it...

    Barack Obama How do we capitalize?

    Invent some "green" products that will become more and more popular going forward, and may get tax incentives too. I've already got 1 product in mind, just not sure how to go about it yet. - Hakrjak

    Congrats to the Cards

    I dislike the Steelers as well and will be rooting for Arizona this year! Rothlesburger has no talent and just stands around all day back there trying to extend the play -- His O-Line must absolutely HATE that guy. haha The Steelers are -6 1/2 favorites... Anybody think Arizona might win it...

    No money - what to do?

    Another great example of why you should always pay the $500 a year or whatever it is and get a professional to handle your corps taxes, books, and meeting minutes, etc. Like you, I have no idea what the tax consequences are when my companies make money and I take money out of those bank...

    Obama's Infrastructure Plan...

    INVESTING 
    How about RMIX? If he rebuilds all of these roads and sidewalks, there is sure to be a shortage of concrete again driving up the prices. I noticed all of the big asphal companies are private, so no investments there. One thing for sure -- After the war is over, short Halliburton ;) haha -...

    Lower your food costs to $1 per day?

    HOT! 
    Man I love pinto beans, but I couldn't imagine eating them every day. Our house would explode from such a build up of methane gas. We had beans 3 days ago for dinner and my office still smells like burning tires! :) haha - Hakrjak

    Lower your food costs to $1 per day?

    HOT! 
    Maybe you can invent a healthy $3-5/day diet for people who want to save money and lose weight at the same time? :) Sounds like a book. - Hakrjak
