With a third child on the way, mortgages, credit cards he racked up for his NRU investments, he just had no other way to pay the bills.

I trade business cards, and talk to as many other investors as possible.They have two sponsors for each meeting, who have booths available - companies like title companies, legal, or Identity theft outfits.

Some would even say mastering counting cards in blackjack is investing because they can point to a track record of winning more than they lose.

So here are the numbers:-I have 260k in equity in a triplex I've owned for some time (I also live there)-I have a full time job earning 41 000$/year (been there 5 years)-I get rental income of 850$/month from the unit that's rented-My credit score always hovers around 740-I have no credit card debt or any type of debt whatsoever except for the mortgage on the triplex (155k left to pay)What's the most profitable way to take things from here.

It is now $.26/card Recently I did a mailing of 771 postcards.

Well, it happen to me, at the age of 20, I had been through a divorce, 1 home foreclosed, 10 max credit cards, 3 repos.

Also, I'm having bandit signs and business cards made up.

(assuming they don't look to busy or come off as angry or irritable) I tell them I am interested in buying property in the area and then just chat for a minute and give them my card.

"Getting ready to get ready", meaning spending too much time getting your office set up, getting lists, getting cards, etc., and procrastinating actually making the calls or contacting sellers, placing signs, etc.

RobinThanks Robin....I actually met you about 2 years ago at Stumps PM ( we won't go there ) when I was just starting out, I still have your business card.
