I was recently contacted by a well-known real estate guru whose name you would instantly recognize. I’d never spoken with him before but apparently he got my phone number from a mutual friend.
This guru told me he had a big project in development and wanted me to be part of it. But first, he wanted to know how I was making money these days and what I was personally doing. I told him that today I was doing a lot of subject-to’s and that I was trying to acquire a lot of rental properties to hold onto for the long term.
After all, the real estate market is still in the tank in many places and you can pick up bargain rental properties and just sit on them until the day you die. In fact, that’s the dirty little secret that nobody wants you to know.
If you really want to become wealthy as a real estate investor you need to own multiple (quality) rental properties and you need to pay them off over time until you own them free and clear. That wa
Congratulations, you’re pregnant! Now fork over a bunch of cash for doctor’s visits, vitamins, organic food, maternity clothes and things baby will need immediately like diapers and a crib. Yay?
We’ve all heard that kids are expensive, but no one really mentioned all of the expenses that come before the baby’s even here. But don’t panic – stress isn’t good for the baby anyway – because we’ve got several ways you can save money.
1. Go In-Network.
This is your baby and your body, so obviously you want medical help that you feel comfortable with, but insurance companies often offer huge advantages for choosing someone in-network. For example, advantages may include paying only a $250 deductible for your hospital delivery expenses versus covering 50 percent of everything. Even if you have to try several in-network providers before you find one you like, it might be well worth your while.
2. Frequent farmer’s markets.
Organic at the supermarket sometimes costs double – or more! But if you’re lucky e
Whether you have $1,000 in the bank or $100,000 in the bank, bad financial advice can cost you dearly. On the other hand, a trusted financial adviser can be well worth their fees in the long run. The trick of course is to find the right adviser for you.
Family and friends are always the best sources for information on good financial advisers, but their recommendations shouldn’t be the last word. Go online to the National Association of Personal Financial Advisors to find fee-only financial planners. And Certified Financial Planners Board of Standards website has a great database of CFPs for you to search through. You’re going to see many, many professional designations in the financial services industry. Some of these represent years of study. Some are awarded after a weekend seminar. But in general, advisors holding a certified financial planner or CFP credential have met rigorous education, experience, and ethics requirements.
Only you know what your goals and needs are. It’s time to interview several planners and see if they meet those goals. Find out what designations they hold and what it took to earn them. A
Lending Club had another great year in 2011, reaching a variety of milestones. They reached 400 million in loan originations in November (pushing 500 million now) only a couple of months after reaching 300 million. They were also recognized as a World Economic Forum 2012 Technology Pioneer, a Forbes Top 20 Most Promising Company, 2011 Webby Award Winner, Top 300 Startups at 2011 fundedIDEAS and continued to receive great mentions in the mainstream media. Theyre becoming more and more mainstream. The word is out!
While Lending Club had a good year, the returns I saw last year were good as well, better than I saw in my retirement or savings accounts. I think Lending Club and social lending in general are a great way to diversify your savings and investments especially in turbulent times like were going through right now. You can also open an IRA with Lending Club as well if you want to make this part of your retirement plan.
