Sometimes these things feel like putting together a puzzle in my mind.

@Jay Hinrichs So I've been catching up on the podcasts here on BP and learning a bit more of each piece of the puzzle.

My 10-year old son has recently become obsessed with learning how to solve the Rubik’s Cube.I’m uncertain how he became enamored with the toy.He was grounded from electronics for a week.I think it happened during that time.I watched him become very, very frustrated with the puzzle.On his own, without any guidance, he figured out how to solve one side.It took him 13 days to do this (and he practiced a LOT).Finally, he got it.He got the algorithm in his head.First, before I go on, what he did gave me great hope for his future.He persisted.Even on such a silly thing, through extreme frustration, he persisted.He’s ahead of the vast majority of his peers.Now, here’s what happened after this.He got better and better of course, continuing his practice.Once he “mastered” the one side, he became frustrated again.He had an extreme longing to learn how to do the rest, which is, if you don't know the algorithms, almost impossible to do on a routine basis.So, I looked up how to solve the thing.As it turns out, there are very specific moves that will help “easily” solve a Rubik’s Cube (even though it has a massive amount of possibilities).He sat down this past Sunday to learn the first (of many) algorithms.He learned it and had a breakthrough.By the end of that day, he was flying through that portion of the puzzle.Indeed, he had solved the puzzle four times by the end of that day, but didn’t know the algorithms by heart.

At the very least, be with someone who is willing to learn along with you.Debt, in the real world, the world that those who have never know deprivation or poverty do not live in and treat as an academic puzzle to be solved, not a trial to be lived through, is bad news.

The only stipulation I will add is that this one K-1 only makes up one piece of the puzzle.

It has complex interplay with various other pieces of the puzzle.

Again I would need more info about costs and money available to work the puzzle.

The part that puzzles me is, do I enter a sale agreement then seek financing or do I try to get pre-approval prior to entering an AOS.

.- Solve three puzzles (Jumble, Suduku, Crossword) per day.- Read two wholesaling/ Tax deed articles per day

I am an idiot and busy in general and the puzzle piece doesn't fit yet.
