    I closed out my 2021 real estate rental income figures yesterday. I HAD A INCREDIBLE YEAR! The final numbers are better than I ever expected. How was yours? Post and let us know. What do you think affected those results?

    Can't take his advice anymore...

    PEOPLE 
    I was talking to my old business partner last night. We have been bouncing our business ideas off of each other for the last 35 years. I was giving him a progress report on the business that I'm setting up to open this coming spring. And he asked me an off-the-wall question about it that set...

    Big Passive Income Opportunities in Food/Farming?

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I just read an article about new robots for farmers. They have machines that creep through the crop fields. They weed the crops through identifying the individual weeds, and frying them with a laser beam. They also can also plant seeds and apply targeted fungicides and pesticides to pests and...

    Serious glitches in filing all US taxes this year!

    TAXES | REGS 
    I just talked to my CPA. He told me that although the filing date for US Federal taxes has been rolled back, the estimated tax quarterlies and the taxes for 2020 are still due on April 15th. That's 2 weeks from now. Don't you have to have a completed return in order to find out what you owe and...

    How did you handled starting over?

    EXECUTION 
    I'm starting this thread to hear your stories. And I have a list of questions. Some will apply and others won't. It's just a jumping-off point... At what point did you know that you were going to start over? Did you make that decision willingly or did you feel forced? Was it in...

    How has business success changed you?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    Do you see the world differently as you grow as a business person? Do you see business situations through different colored lenses? I learned something about myself this last week on a 7-day cruise I took with an old friend. I've traveled a lot, but not that way. I felt like a fish out of...

    What Are Your Self-Imposed Handicaps & Limitations?

    I’ve been doing a personal inventory looking for assumptions that I have accepted as stone cold truths. It all sounds lofty? No, not really. They are silly limitations I stopped questioning long ago – a string of self-imposed personal handicaps and unforced errors. We all have them. We think...

    I Hate the Idea of Being Equal!

    HOT! IDEA 
    I Hate the Idea of Being Equal! I wrote this article last month and thought I'd share it with the Forum... Just some thoughts on success and equality... I’m beginning to understand how out of step I am with the world these days. I’ve always spoken my mind. But, the PC (Politically Correct)...

    Is there someone out there doing this?

    Tonight, an elderly friend was asking me if I know of anyone who will put his listing on ebay for him. He overwhelmed with trying to get his tires, with rims, listed on their site. I told him that I don't know of anyone off hand. I'd ask around for him. BUT, it's a wonderful business idea...

    14 Years in This Business, & Counting

    EXECUTION 
    Today is another mile stone. 14 years ago today, I opened my little self-service laundromat in our rural Alaskan community. My facility that I built wasn't my dream business. I wanted at least 20 washers. The controlling governmental department wasn't even going to let me have 1 washer --...

    my ahha moment yesterday

    The appointment was no big deal -- just a routine matter... I met with an attorney, who owns a local escrow/title company office, to start a foreclosure on a trust deed I own. Although this was our first face-to-face meeting, I knew from past dealings with his company, this attorney could...

    Just ready for change...

    INTRO 
    I don't know what to say about myself. I started my real estate career 41 years ago in 1976. I've been on every side of a transaction and done every job in the real estate world over the years. I spent most of my career in Los Angeles working as a broker, commercial & residential real estate...
