I enjoy traveling with my wife, and our 7 pound Toy Poodle CoCo, (at 6'7" we compliment each other very well).

@Brandy JohnsonWhen it comes to negotiating you must always know your "walk away point" and never get wrapped up in doing the deal (thats where you loose time, money, and sometimes gain unwanted problems that you can't afford or don't want to pay).

You need to find someone that is experienced with a great reputation and is willing to pound the pavement. 

"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of pain."

My heart is pounding, I have to remember to breathe.

Penny wise, pound foolish.  

They want their pound of flesh or as they say permit money.

I feel like I can't read enough or research enough and pound on my old-school calculator.

The IRS knows your formation date, and if you don;t file, there's a good chance you'll get a friendly letter from the IRS saying "Sorry but we don;t seem to have  a tax return on file", so we file a zero return @ year end to avoid unwanted IRS attention.

The way I look at it, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure holds true in the majority of cases especially when it comes to maintaining a commercial property.
