Watch this video and let me know what you think. Pretty interesting stuff…
Also, I’ve been using a piece of real estate investing software that is changing the way I do business. Before I spill the beans on the software I want you to check out an ultra-successful wholesaler’s business plan. You can access the free business plan by clicking on the text below. (check it out and leave a comment on this blog post with your thoughts)
This is the text you click on to get an instant download to Preston Ely’s wholesale business plan. Check it out for yourself and leave your feedback.
If you get the chance, take it. You might be more scared than you’ve ever been (after signing all the disclaimer of death forms, taking a puddle jumper plane 12,000 feet up and then having the door open on you as you jump out)
Watch the video and pay attention to how scared I am in the back of the plane…my fear of heights is very, very real. Matter of fact, I was so scared on the way up that I used the restroom twice before takeoff and almost did twice in the plane.
For anyone who has never jumped out of a plane, maybe you will have the opportunity and then summons the courage to do it. Skydiving is extremely satisfying when it’s over. Man, it feels great to free-fall for 13 seconds (at 126 mph) and then float like a butterfly for 15 or so minutes after the parachute opens.
If you can, do it…you’ll be glad you did. This is just another example of not letting fear stop you (in any area of life)!
Oh, and if you do decide to jump, invest the $100 and get your jump recorded.
Enjoy my utter terror as the plane slowly climbs to 12,000 feet…
One thing is for sure. The rush you get free-falling is one of the most unforgettable moments of my life. You must do it if you have the chance. It really is amazing…
If you haven’t already heard, my buddy Nate Kennedy’s is launching a
new real estate investor education/training system called the Instant Investor.
For those of you that don’t know him, Nate has been there and done that. Just
a couple years back he was completely bankrupt but he changed his investing strategy
and now he’s back. And richer than ever. . .
For kicks and giggles I wanted to share a video Nate shot about a 6 year old billionaire
real estate investor:
If you are looking for a fresh new twist to real estate investing, haven’t yet done
your first deal or just want to mix things with your investing biz up, give Nate a shot.
If you click on the link below, it will direct you to a page where Nate is giving away
a ton of great information (including an Instant Investor Business Plan):
Sometimes I get lazy. I become complacent from time to time. I’m pretty sure this is common for most people so it’s all good…
What normally snaps me back into productive mode is good old fashioned hard work. Usually I get the kind of sweat pouring, heart pumping workout on the basketball court or by playing beach volleyball.
Today was a different story. A business partner and I had the opportunity to spend 5 hours (over the course of 2 days) cutting 4 ft high grass with a little 3.5hp lawnmower.
this was the additional lot behind the house and garage
You wanna talk about a great workout for not only your arms, shoulders and back but that type of bushwackin’ is a total body workout. It is one of the best stress relievers I’ve had in a while and it sure is nice to get down and dirty from time to time.
Just like milk…it does a body good. (and the mind and the spirit)
anyone have a bushwacker?
Hard work and the accomplishment of a job well done makes me feel like such a bad a** while at the same time making me very thankful for the profession I’ve chosen.
I’ll tell you what. The 32 oz Gatorades John and I shared at the end of our project (He mowed for a few minutes hard and then we switched up. and back and forth till it was done) was the most satisfying Gatorade I’ve had in awhile.
Overcome an obstacle….
If there is something in your life you don’t have the courage or strength to tackle, just go do it. Get started and take that first step. You are stronger than you think and can handle more than even you know. Believe in yourself. I do.
Who knows, you may just think it’s the best thing since sliced bread…
Anywho, I Just found this application (I use almost daily AND paid for) and wanted to pass it along.

*PowerPoint presentations
*AutoCad drawings
*company reports
*contracts and agreements (this is a really great one!)
*workflows
*marketing plans
*charts
*emails

Oh yeah and if you find value in this free app then pass it along to others.
We all know how cool it is to be able to turn on the computer, open up the internet, type in http://www.Google.com and search for anything the heart desires.
Most nights the desire is different types of food. Thai, Vietmanese, Mediterranean, Chinese, greasy burgers and beers…you name it.
While it is really cool to have access to Google on your computer, how many times have you been out driving and thought, “I wonder if such and such restaurant is open right now”. Or maybe you were looking for the movie times but didn’t want to pay the 411 fee from your phone company.
I want to introduce you to a super handy tid-bit of information. You (and everyone) who has text messaging on their phone has Google.com capabilities…and most don’t even know it.
Watch this Techno Tip of the Day and may your life be improved because of it:
Now go out and make something happen. Please share this post with others you think will benefit.
This is some really great stuff. Franklin County had one of the best auditor’s website’s in the entire country and was soon copied by county auditor’s across the country.
That was then…this is now. This brand new website is proof that Columbus Ohio is one of the best cities in the country to invest and live in. Columbus is constantly improving and always working to get better. Just look at our Arena District if you don’t believe me. For more proof listen to the city’s plans for the Franklinton area, the old City Center buliding and don’t forget about the proposed train/trolly. Mix that with The Ohio State Buckeyes, the Short North, super stable economy and reasonably priced houses all make for one of the best cities in America.
Back to what my original intent on sharing with you is all about the new and improved auditor’s website. Here she is:
If you live or invest in Columbus Ohio then you need to bookmark my blog right now. I will leave this post up so you can access the auditor’s page here at any time.
You know what I think about Franklin County’s new site…now it’s your turn:
I’m not sure how he did it, but he did. Jeff Adams brought together a who’s who of real estate investing educators and innovators. Some of the people I met have been investing longer then I’ve been alive. How cool is that? Click on the picutre of Jeff to get his latest free REO training videos. (only until 3/14/09 and then they’re gone forever)
Not only did I get to meet and hang out with a ton of really cool people (Ted Thomas, Colin Egbert, Andy Proper, Preston Ely, Gary Boomershine, Mark Walters, Kathy Kinnebrook, Ryan Deiss, Stacy Kellams, John Alexander, Terry Hale, Robert DeNiro and the list goes on and on. Check out more pics on the Flickr tag to the right of my blog) but my wife and I got to stay at the ultra-sleek Palms hotel. If you’ve never been there check out this quick video tour of our room/view:
Don’t forget to click on the picture of Jeff soon to learn more about his new free REO trainings.
