Get off your butt! Stop throwing your money away

Get off your butt. You’re being lazy. Heck, I’M lazy sometimes too. But that’s no excuse. Laziness is probably costing you thousands of dollars right now. Is your property sitting empty waiting to sell? Get some Airbnb renters in and cover your carrying costs. Are you waiting on permits? Stop sitting here reading the internet and get on the department that’s holding up the process. I don’t know how many months (and tens of thousands of dollars!) I’ve saved by following up on city employees who’d shunted my project off to the low-priority list.

I don’t know you, but I know that there are probably a few little invisible things like that costing you thousands that you’re not thinking about at all. I can use a kick in the *** to stop accepting these things, and I bet you could too. So what are you going to do to get rid of those thousands of dollars you’re wasting because you haven’t put in the right effort?
