Congrats, Keith, on the 1500.  Here's to the next 1500!

I just started reading Empire of Debt by Bill Bonner and Addison Wiggin.  

I read their other book, Financial Reckoning Day and found it most interesting and entertaining.  After reading their ezine, I even bought some gold a couple of years ago which has done pretty well since.  Has anyone noticed that it crossed $500.00 per ounce?

I'm not a doom and gloomer; I just want to understand some of the megatrends operating in the global markets and the macroeconomic effects which we might feel from them.  And I want to be positioned accordingly.

I'm currently reading: Flipping Properties: Generate Instant Cash Profits in Real Estate by William Bronchick. I've had the book in my bookcase for maybe two years. I read it at that point while doing the 2 hour train ride to and from work. The book and real estate investing just didn't make sense to me. Now things do make sense. I don't think its the best book in the world (I get far more info from these forums) but I have picked up a thing or two from it and hopefully I'll be able to put my new found knowledge to use in the coming days/weeks/months/years.

pauly,

Isn't it amazing how things start to come together after reading and really studying for awhile, and then when you take action and apply it, it just SMACKS you in the face and it all makes perfect sense.

I have confidence in you pauly, you will do great with your new found knowledge!!

John, but my question is... why didn't this stuff make sense to me 10 years ago? Heck, I bought Carleton Sheet's course a very long time ago and didn't take action. As the saying goes, I wasn't ready for the information at the time. Today, I'm being smacked upside the head day after day reading these forums and realizing all the different options available as a REI.

[John_NM]

You weren't ready 10 years ago!!! The seed was planted 10 years ago and now you're starting to see a harvest.

Yea there are a ton of different options, actually REI is very simple, go negotiate, sign contract's, go to closing and sign some more, sale the house, sign contract again, go to closing again and get PAID!!!!!!!! SIMPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
