Once I gave a life estate to a woman that was on her deathbed in the hospital and the doctors prognosis was 6 or 7 months. well she was 68 and I got to send her a happy birthday card on her 90Th birthday and was looking toward sending her many more when she got hit by a kid speeding through the neighborhood.

My father gave me that book on my 16th birthday.

My goal is to find a wholesale deal within three months before my birthday.1) Call all FSBO and For Rent ads on Craigslist and other free advertising websites (and newspapers).

Also, it give us a chance to send them a birthday card and maintain good tenant relationships.

It's been about a month  gathering information so that I can do my first deal hopefully before my birthday 2/18.

Send birthday wishes, job anniversary congratulations, etc.

I celebrated the 6th anniversary of my 29th birthday back in May... have a wife and 4 kids... about $200k in student loan debt... and own 4 multifamily properties (well, the bank might have a say in that "own" word).The stock market versus real estate question doesn't have a right answer, the question is what works for you.  

It's not like they will take your birthday away.

You can file a notice of your birthday party but not in the RE records, recording a personal property sale is not necessary, to perfect a security interest in persoanl property you file a Uniform Commerrcial Code (UCC) form.

I just had my birth day and realized that the 9-5 isn't so bad.
