Last time I used PayPal, the fees were ~3% of the transaction (because credit cards are accepted as well).

If necessary it could have been financed with a credit card cash advance.

I'm a graphic designer from San Diego (though currently am working via internet from South Korea for a year) and am looking to invest in Oklahoma.I haven't had any experience in real estate yet, but I've been saving up money and reading a lot, so I hope to make my first multi-family acquisition this coming fall in the Shawnee, Oklahoma area.

yeah, i actually never use my credit card.

get credit. good to take out a credit card and pay back early each month. you will start to build good credit.

Currently I have no savings, but I finally paid off my credit cards, so I can finally start saving around $1k/month and start building from there.

For example:Building up a following on Facebook or TwitterSpending thousands of dollars on a company logo, business card, letter head & a pretty websiteBuying books and courses on how to improve your businessSpending hours at networking events that don't lead to any tangible results, etc.These things may have value on some level - but there isn't a direct correlation to the money we make.

Of course you still have to mail them a letter or post card, but that is still a great start.

Does your business card look like crap or is it a nice design that will hold up and has messages and offers on the back of the card??

It's kind of like Card Counters in Vegas.
