- A Cocky. WHITE 45 year old man, would never be able to manage.
- D Properties come with heavy hitters. guns. drugs. Violence. Respect. Gangs.
- Your life is a lie. If it was the truth, you wouldn’t even be here on BP to tell it. You would have been knocked out cold by ANY of the tenants in YOUR district!!! I promise! “ D properties “ MY AS*
@Charlie Moore Dan Pena would tell you to work 120 hours per week if you want to be rich. Over the next 12 months, I will attempt 120 hours per week and cut out all activity that does not increase my income/net worth.
@Charlie Moore Wallace Waddles died in 1911. My take away is that all of the "power of positive thinking" stuff was based on this book. Waddles wrote that getting rich was an exact science and that if you do the things he says, it is as certain as a mathematical equation that you will become rich regardless of age, sex, race, background, etc. It is a simple concept, but difficult to do. Get rich through creativity, not competition.

Like touching a match to a garter snake. I've got to break out the DSM for this one.
@Charlie Moore If a person works 40 hours per week and makes X. Wouldn't it make sense that if they work 80 hours that they would make twice as much as X? Besides, there isn't anything on TV, what a waste of time.
How to Win Friends and Influence People by Carnegy(ie) seems in order. Should be an annual read for most. Gratitude and listening skills are a must for anyone wanting to improve theyself.
Maybe get books from your library. I know my librarian well. Librarians are influencers. Might save a few bucks to boot.
@Charlie Moore Don't "pooh-pooh" @Jim K. suggestion on the narcissism book. All, and I mean EVER.SINGLE.ONE of the tenants that I have had to non-renew have had some type of personality disorder. There are 10 personality disorders; a book that outlines the symptoms for each of the disorders is a VERY helpful tool for any landlord. The only tenant I have ever evicted from one of my properties was a raging narcissist. They are TERRIBLE to deal with.
The other subject you should read up on especially if you are just starting out is values clarification. It will help you make better decisions. I have a very old set of work books called MPG back from my days in corporate America, It was probably the most useful training class I ever took. You might try Values Clarification by Sidney B. Simon.
Do you think it’s just jam packed with BULLCRAP or should I really BUY into all the information?!?
I listened to it (free from the library) but I already only work every third Tuesday and haven't had a boss (to convince to let me work remotely) since 2002.
Not all bullcrap probably, but Ferris works 100 hr weeks is my guess. Actions speak louder than words. I do like the way he compartmentalizes tasks to optimize efficiencies.
@Charlie Moore Rich Dad Poor Dad really changed my views on my spending habits even being a little tight with money. To hear the whole assets vs liabilities from someone that helped coin the phrase was really something. It perfectly explains the “safe” saver vs the “risk taker” and “go-getter” mindset. I didn’t read it but listened to it on a site that people watch a lot of videos :)
