Hi All,
Just been reading the thread about the story on Today Tonight featuring Geoff and Michael (http://66.111.38.199/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=9791) and some of the comments. I find it interesting how some people use these stories as an inspiration, while others are annoyed/depressed because they feel they can never achieve what others have done (I'm not referring to anyone specific in that thread, but just in general).
I find I can go wither ways. For example, today I am really annoyed and frustrated by such stories. I've had a busy week at work, and for the last few months I've been looking for an investment property (which would be my first) - I thought I found one the other day but it sold after being on the market for about 2 hours, and I was stuck in a meeting and couldn't call the agent. Anyway, after that sort of experience I feel like saying "stuff you all, I've wasted enough time trying to invest in property". But I know that on the week-end, after I wind down from work, I'll change my view again, remembering my long term goals, and I'll look to others for ideas and inspiration.
Anyway, got that off my chest. Anyone else feel like that sometimes?
John.
