Small business lessons from the game such as trading deal cards between players etc will come handy in real life later.As far as Russ Whitney goes, I have never even looked into attending his seminars.His book "Building Wealth: From Rags to Riches Through Real Estate" has IMHO all the information that a beginner in real estate could ever use.

I love the game of money, and I play to win. 15 hours can just blow by, and if I didn't look at the clock I'd have never know.

Some sort of a deal might be a win-win.

What you should be comparing is the Las Vegas casino to the property owner, they both win almost everytime.

While doing some research on a house that was being foreclosed on and auctioned on the courthouse steps, I found that the winning bidder was to transfer their bid to VA or HUD.

But it got me thinking that if you had a lot of cash available for those kinds of unique opportunities you could stand to make a fortune, as you'd be able to always beat out these smaller players who have to make their offers "conditional".

As a business owner, you are a BIG target for all the down and outers in our society who are hoping to win the lawsuit lottery.

How could this become a win deal though to include a substantially lower offer?

It shows reason winning over emotion, which is 90% of the battle for most people.I think we should be very careful about suggestions we make to newbies.

Its a win win situation for everyone.
