Who the Heck AM I???

I don't know how I feel opening my life and soul to you, we have never met!  Well you look okay so here goes.

I am a fifty-six year old, unemployed geezer who has decided to put my eggs into the non-performing notes basket, perhaps foolishly!  I have been a real estate agent, have flipped several houses and have done one non-performing note deal.  My wife is overly cautious and so I have always made a significant profit on my real estate endeavors. 

So why non-performing notes?  Well, The real estate agents I know all have 2 jobs, such as, real estate agent at night and Walmart greeter during the day.  I enjoy my couch way too much to spend that much time away from it.

To make the most out of flipping I do much of the work as I am both a plumber and electrician.  I am too damn old and beat up to force my tired body though crawl spaces and under sinks.  Besides finding a property is a challenge with all the HGTV fans leaping on any fixer that comes available.

The best money I have made was on the notes.  Now I did use my previously favorite profit system:

• Buy cheap
• Move in
• Fix up
• Sell after two years

I love that system because the profits are tax free.  Besides I always was employed and wasn't looking to flip full time.

Now after losing my job and heart surgery my nest egg has dwindled and other than fast food restaurants, nobody wants to hire senior citizens.  Works for me because now I am forced into making real money without the stresses of working for someone.  (You know I mean besides my wife!)

So that is Chris Kelly and what I am about.  Hopefully this will be a fun ride for all of us. 

May the road rise to meet you.
