Going The Extra Mile

I know so many people who demand great service from their suppliers of goods and services.  Yet, often when the shoe is on the other foot many of these demanding people are not willing to give a little extra to people demanding it from them.  Why is it that as so-called business people we understand [...]

The Inner Circle

Wow, it has truly been a while since I have written a post.  I am going to start with encouraging you to take a look at a video that will tell you more about who I am and what this Inner Circle is all about. Give it a try.  Go to http://member.drpreforeclosure.com to learn more. [...]

Economic Spending (Stimulus), Stagflation, And Our Future

I was shocked last night to hear a comment about our economy and what is really going on.  You see, the federal government has their own special way of doing accounting.  While we often joke about how “creative” the federal government can be, we have a sense that something just is not right but we [...]

Get The Job Done

It is way too easy for us to find reasons to fail.  I hear people saying, "The economy is bad."  Yet I also hear people buying and selling.  "There are too many laws."  Yet I hear people using these laws to make money.  "They say I can’t use this technique."  Yet I hear people getting [...]

New Year’s Resolution

This year I resolve not to make a New Year’s resolution.  Of course, if I am as successful with that resolution as I have been in the past with other resolutions, then clearly I will make a New Year’s resolution.  In fact, you may have noticed that I already broke the resolution by making the [...]

Lessons From Life’s Seminars

I spoke to someone who is under a lot of stress today.  She is a business owner who I have a lot of respect for.  The conversation reminded me that when we think about starting a business we have visions of spending months in Tahiti lying on a beach with a drink in our hand [...]

Obama’s Campaign – How To Start And Run A Business (Part 1)

As we dissect the campaign that got Barack Obama elected as our next president, and compare that to John McCain’s campaign we will see that while there really was not much substantive difference between the two platforms, there was a huge difference between the two campaigns.  Over the next several weeks I am going to [...]

We Are In The People Business

Anyone who has heard me speak live has heard me say that we are not in the real estate business, or the money business.  We are in the people business.  I truly believe that tenet.  Our success is based on the relationships and networks we build.  Our very existence as investors is based on solving [...]

Going Broke To Get Wealthy

I was just about to write a post about the presidential election when I got this email quoted below.  It is a story that is not uncommon and it moved me to change the topic of this post.  Here is the text of the email: I always felt kinda cheated being from the Phila. area [...]
