    How much do you pay your CPA?

    Okay, I know it's a broad question, with a lot of possible variables. So let's say that you have a CPA (or otherwise qualified accountant) who just takes the information you give them, and prepares your state and federal tax returns. He offers general information/advice when asked. And when...

    No adwords for affiliate sites?!?!

    MARKETING 
    So this is news to me! I have an affiliate site (clickbank ebooks) that has great conversion when people can actually find it. So, I decided to use an adwords coupon to A/B test some paid traffic. As it turns out, Google refused to approve the account because it was an affiliate site...

    "Allowance" for kids?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    So for those of you have kids or have been a kid, I have a question. Do you think kids should get an "allowance" for just being a kid? Do you require your kid(s) to do a set of chores in exchange for their $$? How much? What is reasonable? If you (like we do) travel a LOT for business, how...

    Offshore Real Estate Investments

    REAL ESTATE 
    I see a lot of great posts here about real estate investments. And I see a lot of great posts in the asset protection sub-forum. But I don't recall seeing a lot of threads about offshore real estate investments. While the asset protection aspect fascinates me, I'm actually just as excited...

    e-Biz Consultants?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I'm not sure if such a person even exists. But I think I could benefit from a consultation with someone who has some depth and breadth of experience in the world of Internet Marketing. Why? I own 100+ domain names, many of which I THINK have potential if developed. I've developed a few...

    How do you Manage your "To-Do" List?

    MINDSET 
    Once again, I find myself with post-it notes all over my desk and monitor! And so, as it happens every 6 months or so, I resolutely determine to get all my tasks organized and logged into some sort of "To-Do" list. That usually ends up being a home-grown doc in either Word or Excel. Many...

    Waaaaaay off topic - patio furniture! Help?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    Okay, this has to be, by far, the most random topic about which I've ever posted here or anywhere! But I'm serious about finding an answer! About 10 years ago, my parents bought these wonderful chaise lounge patio chairs for their poolside. They are arguably the most comfortable chairs ever...

    Need help with retirement plans! Quickly!

    OK, I'll admit, this is kinda cheating. But one of the goals for which I'm accountable to my mastermind group tonight is that I was supposed to research ideas for my retirement account. I have about $90k sitting in cash that needs a good home. Options I've considered are private placement...

    Would you be prepared if everything went South tomorrow?

    Reading a couple of the threads on here the last few days, in addition to all the recent news coverage of layoffs got me to thinking: It could happen to just about anyone, anytime. So what would you do if you lost your job tomorrow with no warning and no severance? I would first thank God...

    Townhouse development opportunity - good deal?

    REAL ESTATE 
    OK, I'll admit I'm venturing into uncharted territory for me. I've been talking with my next door neighbor for some time about going together to develop some kind of rentals. She's a high-end SFH building contractor. She has a little extra cash, we have a little extra cash. A friend of hers...

    Best entity to hold a blog?

    I'm planning on putting up a new blog (finally) and would like your opinion on what is probably a simple question. Hope it hasn't been posted elsewhere, but I couldn't find it. The content of the blog may be considered somewhat controversial by some, and I would like to protect myself from the...

    Help with vacant lot question

    REAL ESTATE 
    Setup: I have a good friend who recently discovered that a late uncle had willed him a small (~9K sq ft) vacant lot in a mixed-use neighborhood. It's still what I would consider a "C" area, but borders on an area close to downtown which is quickly being regentrified. There are several other...

    Sadness

    FUNNY 
    With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed last week. Larry LaPrise, the man that wrote "The Hokie Pokey" died peacefully at the age of 93. The most traumatic part for his...

    Section 105 HRA - Medical Expense Administration

    What do you guys use for managing your medical expenses for your corporation or small business. My former accountant told me I need to find a 3rd party administrator to manage this aspect of my business for me. I'm inclined to agree, but I don't know what the alternatives are. The marketing...

    Self-Directed IRA

    OK, I'm taking the next step towards my PLAN today. After doing a quite a bit of research, I'm confident that I should be moving at least one of my IRAs into a truly Self-Directed IRA. I'm hoping that one (some) of you with some real life experience can give me some advice and insight. The...
