    I sold my house, all my possessions, left the state, and started a business.

    Thanks for your input @biophase. It's a structure I came up with knowing the downsides. I spoke with a friend who owns a successful tours company for 13 yrs in Houston and this is what she does. I wouldn't say it's typical. I've researched how other companies structure their pay also. I've been...

    I have a really great part-time tour guide...but...apparently he misunderstood our arrangement regarding pay. My offer was $25/hr. This is a combination of tips/hourly. So if he gets a $50 tip (not uncommon), we're square. If not, I make up the difference. Pretty fair deal I think. He thought it...

    My re-introduction.

    INTRO 
    I thought a re-introduction was necessary since it’s been a long time since I’ve been active on the Forum. I look forward to connecting with “new” members as well as reconnecting with old friends. I will commit to a certain amount of time weekly as I am very structured and busy so it won’t be a...

    This still sounds crazy! Who does this? Especially at my age of nearly 60 yrs old. Interesting that the older we get, the more we realize we have less road in front of us than behind us. In reality, that’s not always true. We never know when this life will end and the next one begins. My wife...

    It was great visiting you and your wife and seeing the golf course! I have not started a thread but I can if it might help someone. I can do this on the Inside for sure. Business is crazy busy and we're expanding out so I'll have to commit a specific amount of time and days for posting.

    Agree. Unemployment is still HIGH. Virus is out of control in many areas. Then there's the Fear. Doesn't look like the Feds will extend benefits. I'm wondering when the money will run out. My Wife experienced FOMO just before the housing crash. Lesson learned. Getting...

    I haven't followed the market as close recently. I have noticed some, one in particular at about $1.3 mil, was well under $300/sq ft. Great price. (I would guess it might be an Airbnb prop). I've also seen some Airbnb properties up for sale. I've seen some FSBO signs as well. Those...

    The market in and around Sedona, AZ is strong for residential. One friend has 12 in escrow. For a small town of 10,000 +, that's big. People that can, are moving from the big cities to the rural areas. Commercial. I'm about to rent some space and the prices have fallen. I might even buy soon...
