Sweet Rewards

When done correctly, real estate investing can have some sweeeeeeeet rewards.  I am off on vacation beginning today.  No, I did not use any cash back at closing to pay for an expensive Hawaii trip.  I used money I earned from my JOB and from past sucessful investments, etc. etc.
I might post occasionally but internet [...]

The Hilarity Just Won’t Stop

More lunacy/new age mumbo jumbo from IAFF.  My comments in bold.

Sheniqua… You’re right I didn’t follow some of the guru advice like to start small and do local deals at first. I’m not saying the gurus are the ones to blame at all. I am just saying that [...]

(Train)Wrecks, Lies, and Video

From IAFF today (2/22/07): Our hero got a sympathetic email and proceeded to wax poetically over it.  My comments in bold and although I don’t know who sent the email, I’ll comment on it as well:
I am Facing Foreclosure Fan Mail
I get encouraging and sympathetic emails quite often (unlike the comments). I decided to post [...]

Sheer Craseyness!

Lot’s of intrigue (or should I say trolling) over at the Bizarro World site.  We’ve got mysterious secret agent forensic accounts passing cloak and dagger advice through a 3rd party blogger/friend to Casey.  We’ve got high priced and unnamed attorney’s reviewing corporate credit thingys and supposedly giving our hero the thumbs up.  What’s next? 
Another freakish [...]

Photoshop Your Way to Traffic

Well, it appears our hero has been scouring the net looking for all the satirical photos and gags.  He has posted a number of funny pictures created by various parties, mostly a few select talented ’haters’.  
Most of these photos/creations, while very humerous, are not at all complimentary to our hero.  In fact, they are mostly very derogatory, [...]

Would Casey Do This?

Last night on The Office, Dwight Schroot, speaking to the camera, said something to the effect of “Whenever I get ready to do something, I ask myself, ‘Would an idiot do this?’.  If the answer is yes, then I don’t do it.”
Words to live by.  So I suggest for all of our followers, when an [...]

Another Gem

Our hero posted the following yesterday (my comments in bold):

Good Things Are Coming…
Was too busy making connections and identifying opportunities today and didn’t get a chance to check up on the NM foreclosure or send the short sale packet. Will attempt again tomorrow.
This is great.  Par for the course.  The house is [...]

Come and Get Me Coppers!

I really find it hard to believe that someone so deep in the doo doo is so brazen.  I really believe that Casey thinks that since nothing has happened so far, everything is cool and ‘it’s all good’.
My opinion is that for whatever reason, the proper authorities are biding their time and will pounce when [...]

The Perp Walk

There have been numerous posters commenting over at IAFF regarding whether or not any lenders will want to prosecute Casey.  It’s small potatoes, they say.  Lenders will write it off, it takes too much time, and so on.  Casey is a small fish.  Yadda yadda yadda.
To that I say several things:  Poster Boy.  Example.  Publicity [...]

Education and Work Ethic

More hilarity from Bizarro World (as always, IAFF material in italics, my comments in Bold):
Updated the main entry with details about the auction tomorrow. See above. Too bad I can’t afford to fly out tomorrow and visit the auction. Would be very educational I think.
Now that is what I call a worthwhile education.  Watch your [...]
