I have been accused of making things black and white, but I find it much easier to come to a conclusion if I can keep gray to a minimum.With the 'dumbing down of America', it is getting more and more difficult to have any type of deep discussion regarding philosophy, reason and theory.We are living in a 'bumper sticker' society.

I guess you can learn by losing money but that is counter to my approach to business.I was taught to always have "two or three witnesses" ( sources ) before I put any credence into an answer so I cross reference with other sources.

I for one will ALWAYS take the sellers side.these guru's that teach this as the ultimate leverage OPM No money down leads to disasters I have witnessed first hand many times.. 

If the agent obtains a purchase offer far above the seller's net listing price, the seller may feel cheated and accuse the listing agent of not disclosing the home's true market value.

For example, I've seen contracts drawn up where an individual is acting as a "consultant" and  advising/assisting the seller who is selling their property FSBO by advertising it, where at that point I can fully see where "acting as a broker" could be the accusation. 

It's on a slightly busy road with lots of cars going by and lots of witnesses.

Are you going to call my wife a thespian of wicked Pittsburgh and accuse me of habitually practicing celibacy before I was married?

I am trying to buy a home & I have been pre-approved but the lender says that I will not be approved unless I show that I am either going to re-enlist or have a civilian job lined up for proof of income.The problem w/ this is that I cannot show proof of civilian employment because I do not have a job lined up nor do i plan to re-enlist.I have read online that I could provide the letter of intent to re-enlist, and just not follow through w/ it.

I've been blessed enough to use the skills I've acquired over the years to pull myself out of the cycle of madness that I witnessed trapping the young men I grew up with.
