    That is true... Every dirtbag renter I have ever had has had one thing in common -- They all want as many dogs as possible, even if that means cramming 2 huge Rots into a small 700 sq ft condo. - Hakrjak

    One more thing -- A shingle company is better positioned than most construction materials provider companies. The reasoning is that shingles wear out on consistant basis, and need to be replaced every 20 years on average. Even without as much new construction, you're still going to be selling...

    The camouflaged face at the window is mine! hahaha.. Man this is relevant now more than ever. These kids today are doing crazy stuff at young ages you wouldn't have even thought possible just a few years ago. When you're 12 year old is doing things you've never even done at 35, you know...

    Buying a house that's not for sale - rehab

    REAL ESTATE 
    Why would you want to buy something that is not for sale and the owner is not responding to letters on? Sounds like you'd be negotiating from a position of weakness here, no? I can see the conversation now: "Hi I'd like to buy your house!" "Um, well it's not for sale, but what would you...

    Making something old new

    I agree, the restaurant wants something that will last forever and be easy to wipe down and keep clean with bleach, etc. Their standards are similar to medical standards, so you really can't use anything with a soft cover on it that can catch food & germs, etc... And if you do use a soft cover...

    I went for the mid level manager at a pet store, because I figure that if a pet store has a mid-level manager, their management structure needs to become flatter asap if they want to save money -- That's just ridiculous... lol You should have 1 manager and a bunch of employees paid minimum wage...

    Boiler Room has got to be one of my favorite movies of all time! One of my buddies who worked on Wall Street for 5 yrs before he made enough money to retire told me that movie is pretty much EXACTLY how it is. A bunch of hooligans playing craps in the hallways and making horse bets with each...

    TV "Experts" asside -- I think we can all agree that Lehman Brothers and Meryl Lynch probably had some of the cream of the crop finance majors working for them, pulling down massive bucks for their expertise and experience -- and these guys obviously missed what was coming down the pipe towards...

    Business Structure Basics

    One thing worth noting, since I have 2 entities myself is that the more entities you have will equal more book keeping costs for you each year. My CPA charges me about $250 per entity to manage all of the books for that entity, handle my annual minutes, keep my binders up to date to keep us...

    How "Green" Is This?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    You know I almost bought one of those things for my house, but then I thought -- Wait a minute... In the past I've had great success growing hot peppers and other veggies indoors in pots and just placing the pots in or near a bright window where they could get plenty of sun. There is no NEED...

    Las Vegas Real Estate Market....

    You could be right. I think it depends on area though. I know that whenever there is a smoking deal out here in Colorado Springs, there are always 10 different offers on it almost immediately. Since my experience in Vegas / Phoenix is just word of mouth, I'd have to rely on a trustworthy...

    I'm not saying this to be argumentative, because I think it's awesome what you just said, and I use that advice when I'm "playing" in the stock market. And... This is the same exact advice I give new players that come with me to Vegas to play Baccarat. I tell them to bet less when you are...

    I tend to wonder about this myself.... If there are all these people being paid millions of dollars to predict the future, who have been through years of higher education on Finance.... and they are generally wrong a lot... Why should I believe that I can personally become better than these...

    I have not looked at the condo and loft market too closely because it's been my experience that no matter what the rest of the market does, these units still manage to gouge their buyers for a considerably higher than market price. If you could get something with a great strip view for cheap...

    Lame FHA rule...

    This is the FHA seasoning requirement.... I've never run into it because by the time I get a house fixed and flipped, the closing date has always been beyond 90 days from when I took ownership of it. - Hakrjak

    The #'s jump around a lot -- I know Vegas was #1 for over a year at one point. Only data I could find online was kinda old though, from 2007: 10 Fastest Growing U.S. Cities | RealEstateRama The 10 biggest gainers: Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, Texas: 162,250 Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta...
