They've just contributed to lowering the value of that "golden egg" investment and the neighborhood.

Was also thinking of cell tower and one have any info?

She is now 12 yrs old and has had her own fresh egg business for several years.

The MCI Worldcom scandal back in 2000-2001 made me bitter about any cell phone company (I lost a lot of money on them) and I don't generally like to put my money there, but this stock has performed suprisingly well, and I'll tell you EXACTLY why: NASCAR.

They would walk down a street and they would see people with cell phones, wallets, and GUNS.

Nothing seems really enticing to me about taking a nest egg and playing the odds with the stock market at all. ncarey,That's whole part you stated about having a larger sum of cash to "leapfrog" steps is sort of what I wanted to know if it was a reality.

I would also diversify and have rentals in other areas of town--don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

Yes, it sounds like you found a way to successfully market some kind of product or services to obtain your nest egg.

Just remember to interview a lot of folks and "fire" the bad eggs as soon as they don't perform for you.

However, until you can diversify and have multiple MFHs, you have placed all of your eggs in one basket, i.e., what if the neighborhood goes bad or they find the next Love Canal under your MFH?
