Glad to hear that you were empassioned by the Rich Dad R.E. Seminar. Was this a weekend course? I dated someone who went to this seminar and he got so excited that he outright bought a house in full 3,000 miles away in Spring Hill, Florida ( Sink Hole Central) in a city he didn't know, without seeing it, without an inspection, without any MLS knowledge, and put it on 4 credit cards. He bought it from an Auction TV cable station (you can't make this up) with a guy in the background bidding him up. He would not listen to me when I told him it was a hoax, he wouldn't listen about spreading your income over several properties, he would not even accept all of my resources that I had to offer him along with expert council at KW ! I went with him to see the house (bad shape, big surprise). He wasn't even going to do an inspection on it stating that he was just gonna rent it out. Really ? I have never in my life seen anyone make such a bad decision. On top of that, he overpaid by $11,000, it needed $10,000 in repairs and he is paying the Termite guy 12% to manage the thing. I obviously had to cut him loose because I couldn't believe that someone would ever do this in real life. It was like a Jerry Springer episode. THIS IS YOUR FUNNY STORY FOR TODAY !!!!
