I did 5yrs. Was a Electronic Technician at MCAS New River. Been out now since May of 02. What about you? Well, I just make it a habit to talk to any Marines I come across. Good luck in REI and God bless. Semper Fi Jarhead.

Fear Not,

I am a Reservist at the Rock Island Arsenal. I have been to New River passing throgh a few times. I went through the hatch in November 2004. Final Drill requirment is November 2010. I may or may not stay in. I haven't done my MOS since I have been there more than 3 times. I finally changed my MOS to 0931 CMT (adapted form of PMI) and I have been very busy with that MOS running rifle ranges.

I love talking to Marines escpecially when they are Investors. One of the Sergeants in my unit got out 2 years ago. I had a Duplex up for sale on assignment and he had called on a bandit sign. We were first discussing the deal for about 10 minutes then we asked what eachothers last names were.....45 minutes later we were amazed that we meet this way!

How long have you been investing? What books have you read? Let me know I love hearing other peoples opinion on their books and education. Good Luck to you as well. Failure is NOT an option.

i am a candidate for bad-credit. I am a single-mother of four, including a grandaughter and I am solely resoonsible for their well-being. I have worked in educattion for 12 yrs. I look at my reitrement and i almost am in tears. I can't believe that i have to work another 17-18 years to leave my children such a small amount of money. They deserve my love, my values and good teaching so that they are able to take care of themselves and also to pass it on tho theirs. i am here to let you know that i am so determined to win because their lives depend on it. I would do anything to secure my future and theirs. I want to be an excellant example of hardwork and dedication. I want them to know that their persisitence will pay off, when they have faith.

whereas I appreciate your title to this journal, i still need to find out who has proven them wrong? Are you guys actively working deals? I have completed 1 deal w/no money down, or up front, so I know it works, i would love to find others who are having success. Here's to your overwhelming success!

Hey Jake how are things? I sent a message but I'm not sure if you recieved it, but I would ;ove to start a forum concerning those things. Just message me and let me know when ur ready and we can make it happen. Press foreward-

Hey, Jake. Just wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS on being chosen as a finalist in Dean's 2009 Send Me Away contest! So excited for all that you've accomplished this past year. And thank you for sharing here on the site! It's hearing stories like yours that get people fired up to take action in their own lives.

Good luck and God bless!

Hi!

I recently purchased Dean's new book and reading it now. I am finding it very useful.

I am interested in networking and effective marketing. I have a business associate that has Private Lenders that provide "Down Payment Assistance for Residential & Commercial property, and you do not need to go through a bank.

Can this resource be of interest to investors.

Thnaks for the wonderful praise. I was simply amazed that I had made it the finals. I didn't really expect I would go that far with only one deal done so far, but I was talking to Matt about it and he reminded me that it is not the number of deals but how your story is presented and the challenges you have to overcome to get that deal DONE!

I am planning on attending the EDGE 2010. If I can get my schedule open for it (hopefully I will have it figured out by the end of this week, I have 2 weddings, marine corps drill, mothers day, and my son Hunter's 1st birthday all in May)I will have booked the hotel and flights by This Saturday and I will be flexing my public speaking skills to Dean and his team to see if 5-7 minutes would be available for me to give a speech about my deal and how I was able to find financing with a 585 credit score. I love talking about motivation and I hope that my posts do get people moving like I know your posts have gotten myself and others to take action.
