You could have the greatest problem solving product in the world, a pill that supplies complete benefits of dieting and excersizing, but if no one ever knows about it then its no good.Third, One person suggested $600 annual fee for seminars and if they do not pay they are not serious about investing.

Or better yet, tell you to drastically change your diet (organic, low sodium, sugar, etc.) and exercise?

I'm more focused on what I do, more motivated to do it, more patient with clients & prospects, all my relationships both personal & professional improve, I sleep better, wake up easier, eat healthier. 30-60 mins/day of physical exercise make a BIG difference for me one way or the other.

[[[.....there will be more tenants and fewer owners....]]]]And a healthier economy.

I improved my diet starting March 1, now the major portion of my meal is bulk bought beans, grains, veggies, home cooked.

They advertise a special diet program to offset all those yo-yo diets.

lol mari....getting hoa tips here is like getting diet tips at krispy kreme....i am all for HOA. unfortunately, many people don't have a pride of ownership in their homes and could care less what it looks like from the street. i think there are people that want nothing to do with HOA communities (as u see here) and its absolutely thier choice to not live there....seeing that your question is asking about rules for the HOA (and not whehter you should have one or not), i will focus on that.definitely, definitely, DEFINITELY seek counsel and get a lawyer that specializes in HOA and realestate. my current HOA is in a bitter lawsuit regarding our validity and it appears that when the transfer occured from the builder to the community there was a snafu. each state has laws that hoa's must follow and you don't wanna just 'wing it'. our lawyer told us to cease opertaions right now until after our may 20 court date.....sounds optimistic!

This new reality makes it actually a healthier socioeconomic environment.

If we came out of the past eight Bush years feeling as if we were on a governmental diet, I woud concur with you Ken.

That way the cash flow is a lot healthier.
