    back to work

    Not sure if I'm the only one who experiences this, but I find SS distracting and almost addictive .... but fun. When I embark on new projects I do not allow myself to be distracted by anything, SS, ringing doorbells, barking dogs, kids, alarms, earthquakes (well some were slightly...

    selling on this forum

    OK looks like there are a few individuals that seem to become very reactivated with anyone who may have a signature leading to a sales page or business, anyone who is "out there" in business and here to meet new clients, prospects leads. My opinion is Go for it, I love knowing what others do...

    Creatting Opportunities

    Years ago when I was running courses on property investing, one of the main excuses I heard was "but that example was purchased in a down market, you can't do that now" When the earth shifts, gold veins are exposed. The economy now is different, shifting and changing. There are new...

    Carrying Cash

    Does anyone here object to carrying around over $1000? If not what is the most you would not carry in cash? $10,000, $100,000? What are your reasons for being comfortable with money or uncomfortable with it? Do not trust society - could get mugged? Fear you could spend/lose it? Other...

    It's not an excuse it's a reason.

    I have a relative who has embraced such a negative outlook on wealth creation and investing that it is almost impossible for him (while he holds that belief) to do anything other than work from pay cheque to pay cheque. Not that there is anything wrong with that, in fact it's right for him, he...

    Cute quotes from kids

    I love children's interpretations of the world they are just so cute. Here is one of mine. My (then) 2.5 year old daughter was in the back seat of the car when Ricky Martin's song came on, the one that goes "she bangs, she bangs... she moves, she moves...." (it was one of the rare occasions...

    Great Great Service

    Here is the opposite of another thread, about the best service you received from others. I was once pulled over by a police officer for driving with no back lights, he pulled out a pad to write and told me there was a fine associated with that offense. I apologised, told him that I had a...

    Adelaide broke the $100,000 mark

    OK revealing my age here, but I was a very very very YOUNG (very young) property investor in the 1990s when Adelaide house prices broke the $100,000 mark. I think I had 2 - 3 investment properties at the time that were purchased at about $95 to $120,000. Now what is interesting is...
