snake oil

If it's merely stopped up it isn't that much to have it cleaned out ($250-$500) depending on the situation....I would recommend having a camera inspection done at the same time of the snake job.

generally speaking, the fees for a checkbook IRA LLC are higher than one would recommend specifically for metals holdings, but if you have broader portfolio goals, it can be a means to an end.And yes, there is an awful lot of snake oil in the gold business.

I like that my mutual fund or stock doesn't bother me with snakes int the backyard or shady tricks in court when trying to evict!  

I wasn't stealing John's thunder as he has a good method of paying costs rather than rental credits that are problematic.

I would be ok with just doing simple assignments like carol Stinson does. basic wholesale deals. then maybe use wlo when theres not enuff equity to do other ways. sorry I'm very frustrated. everyone says keep it simple. id love too if there wasn't everyone saying to do it 40 different ways lol. no offense intended as I know theres really no cookie cutter strategy where its all the same all the time. bottom line I want to make money but not get into legal trouble, I want to help people without snaking them and I want all parties to win. if it cant be that way then I just as soon not get involved.

Of the hundreds of "wholesalers" i've met in the past 18 months alone, only 3 showed me deals that weren't snake oil.  

After that we had our normal plumber come out and run a snake aaannnndddd problem solved.

I snaked it, replaced the S-trap and poured acid down the drain to get everything else clear in the pipes.

Northern Ontario is a pretty big place ... are you west (Kenora, Dryden, Thunder Bay), middle (Sudbury, Timmins), or east (North Bay, Chalk River, Pembroke)?
