Day 4 - 8 (03/20/14 - 03/24/14)

Day 4 of 90 (03/20/14)

Nothing.

Day 5 of 90 (03/21/14)

Nothing

Day 6 of 90 (03/22/14)

Found solid evidence to end my long term relationship with my girlfriend. I was useless the rest of the day.

Day 7 of 90 (We are the Borg... I mean, 03/23/14)

Girlfriend denies said evidence and I move out. That was the fastest move I have ever done in my life. New roommates dog tries to eat my cat.

Day 8 of 90 (03/24/14)

Had my meeting with the local Credit Union at 10 am. Almost missed it. They pulled what she called a "soft" credit report and showed a 605 from Equifax. They only deal with 620 and up. TransUnion, as per Credit Karma, showed a 631. No idea what Experian says or thinks. Also found out that another Credit Union had a charge off for me from 2009 for $21.24. People it apparently only takes $20 to screw up your credit. I went to them and asked some questions and found it was an old insurance policy I had back in the day. I paid the $21.24 plus $5 fee and it's over with. I was informed that it would take up to 30 days to show up on my credit report but they couldn't tell me if it would show up as a charge off that was paid or if it would just go away completely.

After all that fun and excitement I headed off to Sam's Club to get my free tire rotation and I got a call from the Property Manager group I spoke about before. It's hard to park your car in a crowded parking lot while talking on your phone and trying to drive a stick shift. How do they make it look so easy in movies?

We are having lunch on Day 9 (03/25/14) to discuss a possible mentorship. I immediately texted my buddy @Jeremy C. because I nearly peed my pants at the news. Now to just not act like the complete dolt that I am. And having done such a quick move I can't find my shaving stuff so I'm all unshaven (I realize @David C. issued a No Shave Challenge but I'm trying to make a good impression here) but I did get my mop of a head cut down to something more respectable. Hopefully they won't hold it against me.

Side Note: I did get the book in that @Jesse Stephenson was talking about "Investing in Real Estate with Lease Options and "Subject-To" Deals" by Wendy Patton [AMAZON] and started to read it. It's an interesting idea but I think I will have to read more of the book to get a better understanding of it.

edit: If you're curious you can see it in the forums here.
