First Sign

I received an email from an old friend.  Every few months, we exchange a few brief emails and talk about what we’re doing with our lives.  This is a condensed version of our dialog.

Friend:  So how’s the job going?
Clifford:  It sucks.  I hate it.  I’m so disgusted with this place.  I gotta do something to get out of here.
Friend:  Do you have any idea?
Clifford:  I think I’m going to to buy a four-plex.
Friend:  Oh, you’re on that kick again.

He was right.  I had read the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book a year or so ago.  I claimed it had changed my life yet I had done nothing.  With this guy, I had talked to him every few months regarding buying investment property.  After a year of listening to me, he has earned the right to critique me.  I have done nothing.

If you liked that post, then try these...

As I'm sure is the case with all mothers, mine starts worrying the instant I step foot out the door.

"Shocking" is one word to be used to describe the large amount of money that has flowed from my wallet these past two weeks.
