You'll find this funny. I know my daughter thought it was.
But for me, it wasn't amusing ATALL.
Today I went to Walmart. Yes, I shop at Walmart. I actually like Walmart.
This is because I'm usually very short on time so when I need to hit a place where I know I can get a blow-up pool float for our upcoming Spring Break vacay in Hawaii, hair ties for my daughter, cat litter, milk and glue sticks for a glue gun among other things...Walmart is the ONLY one-stop-shop I can think of for such an eclectic shopping list.
On my way back home with my Walmart goods, I heard a fly in my car. You know, that buzzing sound hitting the window, right? I heard it. And I asked my daughter, who was in the back seat, "Is there a fly back there?"
"I don't see anything."
She kept telling me that she heard and saw nothing after I insisted several times that I heard something back there.
A short moment later, I felt something hit the back of my neck and drop down the back of my shirt. Hoping (rather praying) it was a fly, I awkwardly took my right hand and was trying to feel around my back...while driving, mind you. I couldn't feel anything...
So I sat back.
And felt a major shooting pain the second I did.
I instantly knew that it was a bee. (Now praying that it was a bee instead of something else like a hornet.)
And it HURT like hell. But I kept driving, focusing on the road, and told my daughter that I'd have her check my back when I swung by to pick up my suits that I had wore at the Detroit event from the cleaners.
At the cleaners, my daughter saw my back. It was beat red. And the bee fell out onto the floor, dead and crumpled up in a small ball. I actually felt sorry for the little dude (or dudette).
I'm pretty sure I had heard this same bee 2 days ago while taking my daughter to art class. It was stuck in my car and wanted out. No food or water...and it kind of gets hot in there when the car is sitting in the sun. And now he was dead, lying in a ball on the floor. I felt sad for his final demise.
My daughter inspected my back closer and realized that the stinger was still in there. The cleaner lady offered to try pulling it out with a tweezers; that didn't work.
At home, my daughter worked on my back for 20 minutes with a tweezers, trying to get the stinger out. No such luck there.
The stinger is still in my back. Maybe it'll be there forever. Maybe it'll come out on its own. Who knows?
What's interesting about this whole thing is that I am deathly afraid of bees, wasps, hornets...and anything else that can fly and sting.
When I was about 5 years old, me and my brother were playing in the back yard. He was always a very destructive personality. He was this board strewn over these two cinder blocks, something some kids probably set up years before. My brother decided to rip the board off the cinder blocks. When he did this, a full swarm of yellow jackets came ripping out of some unidentifiable place by the thousands.
My brother ran, leaving me there by myself.
I was trying to figure out what was going on...all while hundreds of these bees instantly gravitated and landed on me all within seconds.
I sustained hundreds of bee stings within only seconds to the point where it was the ONLY time in my life where I was in so much pain that my body went into shock and I could no longer feel anything.
I still remember pulling one of the bees off the front of my shirt that was ferociously stinging me and started to squeeze the life out of it. Then I stopped because I didn't want to kill it. And I let him go.
(This goes to show that the essence of my being couldn't hurt a fly...or in this case a BEE that was stinging the sh** out of me.)
This is the reason why I'll never own a convertible. I'm afraid bees or wasps will come flying at me while I'm driving or sitting at a stop light.
Yet my worst fear came true.
I got stung by a bee while I was driving and I kept my cool, felt the pain but kept driving responsibility and safely, and remained clear-headed the entire time.
It kind of makes me wonder about all the other things I've been deathly afraid of that I've avoided because of pure fear that I would be hurt, would fail...or whatever the fear really is.
What kinds of things are YOU afraid of that you've been avoiding...making the fear take over and prevent you from doing things or having things? All because of fear?
I will always freak out from bees and wasps flying around me because it's just a knee-jerk reaction from my childhood; I don't imagine this will ever change.
But I will no longer feel like I'm going to "die" if a bee stings me...because it happens to land on me while I'm driving, for instance. It's certainly not worth risking my life over -- by over-reacting -- because of this fear.
I deal with so many students who have some pretty stupid fears. These fears aren't stupid to them, of course. But they are pretty stupid.
Fear of failure, fear of success, fear of having to do some work...fear of whatever!
Fear of bees!
All fears that will hold you back...and KEEP holding you back, quite possibly forever unless you decide to move past the fears.
Let the bee sting, keep driving...keep moving toward your goals and your dreams NO MATTER WHAT!
Later my daughter said something cute. I wasn't wearing green today because I just don't own any green clothes. Green isn't my color at all. So she said, "Mom, I know why you got stung. The bee 'pinched' you today."
Cute. If the sting still didn't hurt.

I'm offering some kick-ass bonuses INCLUDING enrollment into my LAST EVER 8-week 100% online Apartment Riches Mentorship Group (starting early April), a list of accredited investors you can contact directly with your deal, a special letter you can send to these investors that I created just for you, and my special report called $200,000 to $1,000,000 that can literally make you over $1,000,000 in LESS THAN A YEAR! CLICK HERE to check it out now!
P.P.S. If you were part of the back-order group of students still waiting on their Build Business Credit FAST! System, rest assured that yours is out in the mail as we speak. If you haven't received your system yet and you're waiting for it, you'll receive it early next week. I promise! Normally we don't have issues with shipments but we had so many orders, it was overwhelming and we had to order a lot more which took awhile. Thanks so much for your patience!
Last week I gave you info on my secret HIGHLY EXCLUSIVE $200,000 unsecured loan guy who can get you a loan with shaky personal credit that you can use for anything -- starting a business, paying bills, investing in real estate, whatever -- and his loans require NO personal income verification, NO employment verification, NO collateral, NO upfront fees, and NO application fees. (Minimum loan amount MUST be $20,000.)
In fact, I only offered this exclusive source ONCE as a bonus awhile ago and I'm giving everyone ONE LAST CHANCE to get his information again (if you missed out before).
PLUS...
I have a slew of brand new money sources on top of that including investor partners and angel investors too.
Oh...and here's the good part: if you have ANY prior version of the Build Business Credit FAST! System (even one from way back in 2009 and even a download version), you qualify for the very special UPGRADE price which is pretty freaking cheap...in fact, the CHEAPEST I've ever offered a course before. Seriously.
And yes, we do check to see if you're in the system as having purchased a prior Build Business Credit FAST! System (and not any other system, as others do now allow you to qualify for the upgrade price deal).
Once more thing...this deal ends really soon so, get on it!
If you have questions, give us a call during business hours (9am to 5pm PST) at (661) 295-5050. Please note that due to our phone lines being down late last week, the phones are really hectic and we're playing catch-up. PLUS we have a new phone system that we're trying to get used to so...please be patient if you're trying to call in.
See you at the top!

Last month when I ordered a pizza, for the first time ever it came pretty quick. I made a comment to the pizza guy about how quick it was in comparison to other times I ordered. He said that January and February were their slowest months. I made a comment about how people were still on their temporary "diets" because of the new year and he said...
"No, it's because people didn't get their tax money back yet."
Their tax money? Because the $5.99 special at Dominoes is so freaking expensive for people that they have to wait for their tax money to buy a freaking pizza?
I shook my head and hoped that the dude didn't have any aspirations above being a pizza delivery guy because, for him, he had maxed out at his current career capacity due to having too many missing brain cells to ever be able to do anything beyond that hauling pizza to people's doorsteps.
And if selling pizza exclusively revolves around people having tax money, why are the other 10 months of the year busy at pizza places? People are able to hang onto their tax money for 10 months out of the year but...run out in January and February? Please. People piss their tax money away lickety-split...many times BEFORE April 15th even arrives by taking a loan out against their expected tax refund so...it's pretty doubtful that they're still buying pizza in September on their tax refund money like the idiot suggested.
Makes me wonder WHERE DID THE LOGICAL THINKING go. Where did people's brain cells wander off to? What the hell is going on here??
Then a few weeks ago I get this phone call. I knew who it was. It was some wind-bag who wanted to date me almost 2 decades ago who tried contacting me on Facebook, received no response after his multiple messages (until I had to block him)...and then months later got my phone number somehow and decided to call me.
CLICK! I immediately hung up and blocked the ass***** number. And if he wants to keep pushing, I'll just have to file a restraining order against him and have the piece of sh** locked up.
Anybody who is too stupid to get the message -- that NO response means, NOT INTERESTED -- then, again, all I can recommend is that he somehow find a handful of brain cells because they must've leaked out of his ear and onto the pillow while he was sleeping. If I was interested, I would have sought him out years and years ago. But I didn't. So there. Freaking loser.
This kind of stuff doesn't leave me bewildered. No, instead it just pisses me off. The audacity!
Then I went to the store this evening and found myself having to bag my own groceries because the dopey girl that was doing it for me wasn't doing it correctly at all. She was putting 2 to 3 small things in each bag and leaving half or three-quarters of each bag empty.
And for those of you who don't live in California, you wouldn't know that we have to buy our bags and we carry our canvas bags into the store with us. Since I didn't happen to bring a wheelbarrow of 50 bags in with me, I quickly lost patience with this stupid dopey girl who just looked at me with this sappy blank look on her face when I kept telling her to fill up the bags with more stuff as I found myself snatching groceries off the counter and doing it myself. Maybe she didn't speak English...or...anything for that matter.
I told my daughter not to spend so much time on her devices because it's making people stupid. REALLY stupid. And it's not just the Millennial bunch who are being dumbed down. No...it's happening in ALL age groups. I see Generation Xers and Baby Boomers glued to their phones just like Millennials are. And it's ruining people. Seriously, it is.
It's damaging people on so many levels: psychologically, mentally, emotionally...and who knows how else we're being ruined. This will be one of these deals in 20 years where -- like packs of cigarettes and bottles of alcohol -- there will be class action lawsuits against Apple and others while the government requires there to be warning labels on all these devices, software programs, and apps.
Long after it's too late.
As people who become addicted to cigarettes, alcohol, and other drugs, it's usually much too late to quit, even with a useless government-mandated warning label.
This is what we can call the silent epidemic sweeping across the world. The silent killer. It's training people not to think for themselves anymore...or to think at all. And ONLY those who are keeping alert while paying attention to everything happening around them (instead of being glued to a phone or iPad) will not only be able to take advantage of opportunities around them...but they'll ultimately be the handful (by percentage) that actually end up ruling the world.
Are YOU seeing the opportunity around you while everyone else is glued to their phones, walking smack onto traffic while being more interested in the latest video on Facebook instead of whether they get killed by a head-on bus or not?
Or are you the one glued to your phone...too busy to notice ANYTHING of real importance in the real world...while people like me are mopping up all the opportunity?
Just curious.
I absolutely HATE my phone. And if it wasn't for the convenience of texting (to avoid actually talking to people on the phone), I'd take back my old Motorola flip phone in a heartbeat, just to have in case I need to call for help. Otherwise the phone sucks and I hardly ever use it otherwise.
Your personal habits with your phone can and will forecast exactly where you will be in the next 5 years of your life. If you're a phone junkie -- like one of the many people that just walk in front of my vehicle, not paying attention, within only inches from me smacking them with my bumper, and they STILL don't notice that they're about to get creamed by my car -- then I can tell you about your future: you don't have one.
But if you're like me who HATES the phone, avoids using it whenever possible, lets probably way too many calls go to voice mail, and would rather WAIT to get to a desktop or laptop to check emails instead of refreshing emails on your phone every 3 minutes...then you have a bright future ahead.
Not only is it bright but...you'll easily get one over on everybody else because, well...there's no more competition in the world anymore. Everybody else is too busy hitting the like button on the latest kitty video on Facebook or taking a selfie with their taco salad lunch with the hopes that they get 100 "likes" (otherwise they'll feel depressed if they don't).
You know who else hates the phone...?
My "rock star" student Andrew Shaw who makes over $170,000 in monthly cash flow by doing a special "niche" type of real estate investing. He hates the phone too.
And right now he's looking for investor partners. If you haven't had the chance to check out this rare opportunity (that is ending VERY soon) CLICK HERE NOW.
You can either choose to be like the rest who have no prospects, no future, and no hope...
Or you can look up, look around, and start taking advantage of the opportunities that are surrounding you everywhere.
Starting with this Andrew Shaw opportunity that can make you extremely wealthy in a VERY short amount of time.
CLICK HERE and I'll describe exactly the type of investor partner he's looking for and you can decide if this is the right opportunity for you.
See you at the top!

P.S. I'm almost full for two (2) things: My 2018 Apprenticeship Group: CLICK HERE for an applications and details about how this could be a total game-changer for you. AND...My Detroit Boot Camp Seminar Event is almost full also. In fact, tomorrow I'm changing the pricing. CLICK HERE to reserve your spot now and attend this event to take advantage of 2 very unique and potentially profitable investing opportunities that are ONLY for those who attend this event!
Many people who don't have stocks, bonds, options or anything else having to do with the stock market think, "Oh, at least I won't be affected by the recent biggest drop in stock market history."
But think again.
This is EXACTLY what people back in the Great Depression thought during the stock market crash on Black Friday in 1929.
"I don't have any stocks so therefore I'm immune..."
Immune from losing your job? From not being able to sell things because nobody is buying anymore? Immune from WHAT exactly?
In fact, back then, if you actually talked to anyone in the soup lines back during the Great Depression of the early 1930s, you'd quickly realize that MOST didn't even own one stock. (Quite a few who DID own stock ended up jumping off a building and killing themselves after the crash of 1929, saving themselves the humiliation of standing in a soup line at all.)
Now, the way I see it (and as a short disclaimer, I'm not part of the Psychic Friends Network and I don't have a crystal ball) but usually when we're hit very hard with a recession (as we did after the crash of 2008) then the next one is usually -- USUALLY but not always -- an "easier" recession. However, you usually don't get a full on "crash" to kick of the next few years as being "mild," if you know what I mean. So this could go either way.
And yes, I've been warning you about this for 18 months. And yes, I told you so.
So, how does this tie into real estate investing exactly? Ah! This is when all the opportunities will start flurrying around. Foreclosures come back into the picture. (They have been already for the past quarter or so.) More inventory comes on the market. Prices drop because of the overabundance of inventory on the market.
And THIS then becomes YOUR opportunity to get yourself some cash flowing properties if you haven't started already. And if you have started, keep adding more properties onto your portfolio.
I have a very unique opportunity for you that I think you'll really like! CLICK HEREand you'll see what it's all about.
In the meantime, instead of being depressed about the recession coming up, be happy. Recessions are when I make the most money and it can be when you make the most money too!
See you at the top!

Monica Main
P.S. If you haven't signed up for the Detroit Real Estate Boot Camp Seminar yet then you still can. CLICK HERE to reserve your seat. After this weekend, I'm raising prices again so claim your seat now while you still can.
It's VERY RARE when I come across an opportunity like this. In fact, something like this only comes around about once every 5 years or so.
What am I talking about?
An opportunity to do direct partnerships with a real estate powerhouse who can really help you take your real estate investing to the next level (or ANY level if you haven't started yet).
CLICK HERE to listen to a brief audio seminar that talks about how you can partner directly with one of my students who is making over $170,000 a month with this very unique type of real estate investing.
Now, of course, this type of investing isn't for everyone. It's a specialty type of commercial asset that he specializes in.
The good news is that he's looking to expand out in every major city (with a population above 250,000 people)...even if you're in a hard-to-cash-flow area like New York City or Los Angeles.
Happy MLK Day! I hope you're having a splendid day off.
And if you're not taking the day off, YOU SHOULD BE!
Just last week I was watching a movie fave of mine called The Bucket List with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman. Good movie, by the way, if you haven't seen it.
There's one line in the movie that gets me every time.
Morgan Freeman (as Carter) is talking about his life and why he didn't do some of the things he though he'd do by that point: "Forty-five years goes by pretty fast."
And Jack Nicholson's character (Edward Cole) says in response: "Like smoke through a keyhole."
Like smoke through a keyhole.
That's how fast life goes by, folks. Like smoke through a keyhole.
Last week I was making a brief personal life assessment and started thinking about the dreams I've given up. Dreams that, perhaps, someone along the way (including that "inner someone") who convinced me that aren't "possible" for me to accomplish. These are things that I've somehow come to "automatically" believe without much (or any) substantiation as to WHY these things aren't "possible" for me.
I went down my dream "impossibility" list and analyzed each item:
Dream #1: To become a best-selling novelist. Hmmm. Why did I resign to believe that THIS wasn't possible for me? Let's think back: I decided at some point that I didn't want to be the "struggling artist" and thought that all (or most, anyway) novelists never make a dime. Those who do make money still have to have second jobs. Why have 2 jobs when I can only have one? So, I gave up THAT dream many years ago.
Rebuttal: A positive monthly cash flow in passive income buy-and-hold (forever) properties allows me to literally sit on a beach with a laptop (and ideally with some type of alcoholic umbrella beverage) to write...whatever. Would it ever matter if ANYTHING sold? (Guess not.) And instantly THAT dream was revived again.
Dream #2: To become a successful screenwriter. When did I believe that THIS wasn't possible for me? Oh, yes. It's when I decided that Hollywood was a total pile of sh** and that I didn't want to have anything to do with it. And also, see part of dream #1 above.
Rebuttal: As one of my MFA professors explained to me in the last leg of my degree journey, I have the ability to RAISE MY OWN MONEY using the techniques and strategies I've been using for buying property...and simply GET FUNDING for MY OWN FILM rather than dealing with Holly-Weird and their many disgusting and ego-driven intricacies. So...what kind of film would I do knowing I could do ANY type of film? (Actually, the answer would surprise you. I have very little interest in doing a movie but I have tossed back and forth the idea of doing a documentary. More to come on that...later on...since YOU may actually be IN that documentary!)
Dream #3: To move OUT of California. Why did I want this? Oh, that's right! It's because I freaking HATE living in California because of so many back-stabbing phony baloney plastic people I have to deal with on a daily basis here. So, why don't I just MOVE then? Well, this one is a little more complicated than items #1 and #2 above because this one includes someone else. It includes my 9-year-old daughter and she wants to be close to her dad. So, this one is kind of on hold for a little while. And even when she turns 18, it may be on hold for longer than that still...probably until she finishes college. (She's already wants to attend Cal Arts.) But that doesn't mean I'm not scoping out where I'll be living AFTER all that happens. (I have my eye on either Destin Beach or Fort Walton Beach, Florida...climate change, be damned. I don't care anymore.)
Rebuttal: None. I kind of included it above already.
So...what the hell is the POINT in all of this?
When you have a CASH FLOW from PROPERTY that gives you a MONTHLY STEADY INCOME month after month, year after year, this allows you several freedoms that can completely change your life:
Freedom #1: You follow a "foolish" dream like becoming an artist, sculptor, writer or even a world traveler and never have to worry about having that JOB to pay the bills because your property cash flows pay the bills FOR you. All while you follow whatever "whim" you have at the moment.
Freedom #2: You can do BIG THINGS like make a movie, fund a huge important project, or start a "legacy" kind of business with money FROM SOMEBODY ELSE. You don't have to scrimp, save, and scrape sofa change together to try to make your dreams happen. You can GET FUNDING for all of this INCLUDING the real estate that's going to be getting you that monthly cash flow that is outlined above.
Freedom #3: You can LIVE WHEREVER YOU WANT in the ENTIRE WORLD and you'll still get that monthly cash flow from either the business you built (using OPM) or the real estate empire you built (using OPM) or doing BOTH (ideally...using OPM).
Remember, ALL of those dreams that you gave up all BECOME POSSIBLE when you gain access to MONEY?
Why am I bringing all of this up?
Because I started thinking about how FAST life slips by -- like smoke through a keyhole -- and how many things I threw on the back-burner because I thought I couldn't pull off those dreams or I figured I'd get around to them later. And here I am, at age 43 (still pretty young), and now having some SERIOUS conversations with myself about NOT giving up my dreams anymore only because of HOW FAST life goes by. And that maybe "later" is really NOW.
How many times in the past couple of years, months, or even weeks have you been thinking about how FAST it's all going by and...how you better start doing something about the things you want to do NOW? Before it's too late??!!
I'm here to tell you that it's NOT too late. You just have to understand some tools that are available to you. You have to understand how to build wealth. And mostly you need to understand how to GET THE MONEY for the wealth you want to build to be able to get the freedoms you are looking for.
Listen, when it comes down to it, there is only ONE thing that tends to hold my students back from getting a business off the ground or investing in their first piece of cash flowing real estate. It's the LACK OF MONEY that stops all progress in this department.
But it doesn't have to be anymore.
For the FIRST TIME EVER, I'm doing a VERY RARE NEVER-TO-BE-REPEATED Mentorship Group (which starts TOMORROW) called the Get Money for Deals Mentorship Group. (CLICK HERE for more info.) This is an 8-week 100% online group with weekly live webinar trainings (which are all recorded in case you cannot make the session). This rare and unique group will show you the easiest tested-and-proven strategies on getting money for anything and everything from making a film to investing in real estate to starting a business. ANYTHING you need money for, you CAN get and I'll show you every trick in the book on how to do that.
This IS the most VALUABLE skill you could ever learn: GETTING MONEY. Just think about it: it removes EVERY other obstacle you thought you ever had to success because, after all, the #1 obstacle is GETTINGTHEMONEY to build wealth. For the first time ever, I'm removing that obstacle for you.
But, this group STARTSTOMORROW. So, you MUST enroll today if you want in. CLICK HERE or call (661) 295-5050 after 9am PST to register. Before it's too late!
You know, most of us are running around ragged, overwhelmed, and on the verge of a complete breakdown...more so than ever before because of the current demands that life has for us in this day and age. At what point are you going to sit yourself down and ask yourself, "Does this madness of a life make any sense to me anymore? Or do I want to go for something BETTER for me and for my family?"
Yes, it's time. It's time to do something BETTER now.
P.S. Platinum VIP for the 3-Day Real Estate Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar in Detroit, Michigan on March 8th, 9th, and 10th is SOLD OUT! I do have Gold VIP available with an upgrade option to were you can still take the SPECIAL 1-day Get Money for Deals Workshop (on March 10th). CLICK HERE to register now before we're completely sold out!
Have you ever thought to yourself: what is the BEST way to get funding for a new start-up business or to get a down payment on a nice cash flowing apartment building deal?
Did you ever think... "Hey, maybe I should go to a bank?"
If you've ever thought that, STOP thinking that right now. Banks are NOT where you get money, quite contrary to popular belief.
Most successful business owners and real estate investors KNOW that banks and mainstream lenders is NOT where you get money for your deals.
Especially now.
Why especially now?
Because banks are now tightening up on lending because they're bracing themselves for a replay of 2008. Now, I don't think it'll be as bad as 2008 but we're definitely going into a recession as we have yet ANOTHER sub-prime credit bubble burst coming our way. (Yes, ANOTHER one, believe it or not. You'd think we would have learned our lesson the first time but evidently we didn't. Greed makes people forget a lot of things relatively quickly! Ask any of the CEOs who walked away with millions while people lost their life savings back in 2008. They'll say, "What happened in 2008? I don't remember anything happening in 2008. What did I miss?")
There is a VERY UNIQUE set of ways in getting funding for just about ANYTHING you want funding for.
Want to make a movie? I can show you how to get the money for it.
Want to start a new internet business? I can show you how to get the money for it.
Want to get money for a down payment on a nice profitable cash flowing property? I can show you how to get the money for it.
And each way -- depending on WHICH you'd choose above -- would require a DIFFERENT way of getting the money.
And NONE of those ways include filling out a loan application at a bank or with your run-of-the-miller money lender/broker.
I have an 8-week 100% online mentorship group coming up which starts on Tuesday, January 16th. This is a group that I've NEVER done before and -- after it's completion on Tuesday, March 6th -- I won't be repeating this group ever again.
Each week we will cover tested-and-proven ways for you to GET MONEY FOR DEALS regardless of that that "deal" would be. These strategies will RANGE from tapping into personal and business credit to more advanced methods of getting multi-millionaire and billionaire investors to invest in your deals including business start-ups and real estate transactions. And, of course, there's everything in between. I will only be covering GET MONEY FOR DEALS strategies that are (a) easy to do...easy enough for ANYONE to successfully pull off, and (b) that have been tested-and-proven to work time and time again provided that all the very basic steps are followed.
Because think about it, you CANNOT and SHOULD NOT go to a bank or mainstream lender for ANY type of money you need, whether it's a signature loan or a commercial mortgage on a property deal. You simply cannot and should not use these sources because it's so hard to qualify, even during a GOOD economy. Imagine how hard it'll be when all the sh** hits the fan with the sub-prime bubble officially bursting all over the place. This is when it'll go from "very difficult" to "impossible" to qualify for these types of loans. (And if you don't remember what it was like to get rejected by mainstream lenders and banks, just remember what it was like trying to even get an unsecured credit card while having a 750+ FICO back in 2009. Yeah...THAT difficult!)
CLICK HERE to register for this VERY RARE and ONE-TIME-ONLY 8-week online mentorship group now before we fill up!
Now, remember, this is conducted 100% online. Even though we do weekly live trainings which will happen in the afternoon every Tuesday (for 8 weeks, starting January 16th), you don't have to be present for the live training. I record each training and I post it on a Member's Only access page (that you'll have a user name and password to access). This is where you can see the training, download any applicable materials, and download your Action Sheet which MUST be completed AFTER you watch the training but BEFORE the following week's webinar training takes place. This way everybody stays completely on track with everything.
Again, this Get Money For Deals Mentorship Group will ONLY be run ONE TIME and that's it. This is for ALL of you who want to be able to continue investing and building a business during our upcoming financial crisis by having constant access to cash while everybody else simply WON'T.
P.S. We've filled up with Platinum VIP for the Detroit Real Estate Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar on March 8th, 9th, and 10th. However, you can register as a Gold VIP and pay an extra fee to attend all 3 days since the 3rd day (March 10th) will be a SPECIAL Get Money for Deals Workshop! CLICK HERE to get registered NOW!
I'm pretty sure I started warning everyone that this was coming...back in late summer of 2016. Then the "reports" came out after the close of the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2016 substantiating everything I said: that the "sub-prime" credit bubble was set to burst. Again.
And now the numbers are worse than ever before, even to the point where Warren Buffet decided to sell off his stake in Wells Fargo, a noted sub-prime lender of all kinds of sub-prime debt including car loans, signature loans, home mortgages, etc.
Apparently nobody learned ANYTHING from pre-2008. And if they did learn any lessons, they've certainly forgotten them already.
As of the close of the last fiscal quarter (4th quarter 2017), approximately 6 million people (all with credit scores below 620) were 3 or more months late on their car payments. Even worse, car loans are STILL being made to people with FICO scores of around 520. These people shouldn't be given a loan for ANYTHING let alone a new (or used) car.
And yes, banks have already restricted lending on -- you guessed it -- REAL ESTATE because they have to start hedging their bets against the astronomical losses on all kinds of loans that they're already taking.
This would be REASON #1 as to why and how our economic conditions will suddenly show signs for the worse.
So...what would be the second reason?
Remember that "trickle down" economics theory? You know, the one that NEVER works the way anyone tries to "sell" it to the American public that it will? Well, your large corporations like Carrier are laying people off because, well...they would like to keep EVEN MORE of their newfound profits. Why stop at just paying LESS in corporate taxes? Why not lay unneeded workers OFF to keep EVEN MORE money? As Homer Simpson would say, "Duuooh!" Yes, after the fact, it kind of IS that obvious to those of us who actually have a few working brain cells in our skulls.
The final reason is -- as something I've been talking about for YEARS now -- plants, manufacturers, and even RETAIL businesses are starting to AUTOMATE anything and everything they can.
Case in point, Amazon has been promising jobs left and right to be able to get local tax breaks AND promised incentives to park their new distribution centers in a wide variety of areas including economically-stressed places like Detroit. What they'll generally do is make a load of promises on jobs, get in there, and every-so-slowly hire people in...probably with no intent on keeping up with the promised job numbers. At least not any time soon. For example, they have a new 1-million-square-foot warehouse in the Midwest in which they promised 1,000 new jobs. First of all, a warehouse THAT size should command many more than just 1,000 jobs. But even still, they didn't hit the mark on hiring all these people. Not yet. Will they? Who knows?!
Walmart and many other companies are cutting back staff and employees for automated technology. And I've been sending out this warning for a long time now.
In fact, if I owned a bunch of fast food restaurants -- say McDonald's -- and I was suddenly hit with this new $15-an-hour minimum wage requirement, I'd GO INTO DEBT for the next 10 years buying new automation equipment than to cheerfully give a bunch of career-burger-flippers a full-time position at $15/hour for...flipping burgers. Ridiculous. If anyone ever thought that kind of job was supposed to be a career giving them a "livable" wage, think again...and maybe go back to college while you're thinking.
Back in my day, getting a McDonald's job was supposed to be for those of us still living with our parents. It was supposed to be a side thing that we did after school and on the weekends while we were in high school for some pocket cash. It was NEVER meant to be a "career" by any stretch of the imagination. So, all these dim-wits who think that a job like flipping burgers at McDonald's IS supposed to be a long-term career...well, those people are all in for a very rude earth-shattering awakening when these business owners start thinking like I do and that is to AUTOMATE and REPLACE as many human workers as possible.
After all, why deal with the employee liability when you don't have to with a robot? No more calling in sick (and taking sick pay), being rude to customers (including spitting in the food), dealing with sexual harassment charges or other possible bogus claims, having to shell out on unemployment if they are "not rightfully" terminated or laid off, paying for insurances (health and Worker's Comp)...and on and on it goes with human workers. With robots, all you need is an independent contractor to service the equipment once in awhile and...there you go! No inconsistencies in performance, no liability, no additional expense...no nothin'!
TREND ALERT: If you're paying attention to what I'm saying, you'll realize that being in the "robot biz" is where it's going to be at now and in the future.
If you recall -- post 2008 years -- our economy shifted in such a dramatic way, even eliminating certain industries altogether AND IT'S ABOUT TO HAPPEN AGAIN!
Are you prepared?
The BEST way to prepare is to get started investing in buy-and-hold assets like small apartment buildings. But, herein lies a new upcoming problem: getting money for your deals. I had a student send me a lengthy email about how she didn't understand why a property she is in the middle of escrow with (right now as we speak) just got the funding completely pulled by underwriters this week. "Why?" she asked. Completely bewildered.
Because this is what ALL banks and lenders are going to be doing until this recession is over which, I'm calculating, will be around 2020 or 2021.
So...how do you get money to start a business or to invest in real estate or to do ANYTHING for wealth-building activities?
I have an answer for you. CLICK HERE for the answer that will LITERALLY be the answer to your prayers when the sh** hits the fan (which is happening NOW if you're paying attention).
See you at the top!

We made it to 2018 and I wanted to be the very first to tell you...HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Yes, 2017 was a rough one for many of us (yours truly included) but we made it to a brand new year and I have a feeling that this one is going to be FANTASTIC...one for the books, for sure!
Don't you just feel...different...already?
I know I do!
I feel refreshed, brimming full of positive optimism, and really ready to start taking on 2018 with fresh eyes, a full heart, and loads of energy and enthusiasm like never before.
And I'm very glad that you will be a part of my life through this awesome New Year of 2018!
See you at the top!

Some "housekeeping" notices as we enter 2018:
1) The new broker who is getting loans for my students between $20,000 and $200,000 is part of the NEW Million-Dollar Resource Directory for my newly released No-Cash-No-Credit System for 2018. He can offer unsecured personal loans for personal reasons, business start-ups and real estate deals. There is NO income verification, NO collateral (hence the use of the word "unsecured" above), NO verification of employment, NO upfront fees and NO application fees. Shaky personal credit is okay. The special pricing AND broker bonus for the $20,000 to $200,000 is ending Wednesday, January 3rd at 5pm Pacific Time. CLICK HERE to get it now.
2) I've already gotten quite a few applications for my Apprenticeship Group 2018 (starting in mid-March) in which I'm only accepting 12 people. This is a VERY RARE group that I've only done ONCE before (back in 2010) and the likelihood that I'll be doing it again...is somewhere between 0% and 5%. So not very likely. If you're interested in more information about this highly exclusive and very rare group, CLICK HERE NOW!
3) You only have until January 2nd to get the early-bird pricing discount deal for the Detroit Real Estate Cash Flow Boot Camp Seminar (March 8th-10th) and the option of putting down only $100 to lock in your spot and price savings. CLICK HERE if you haven't locked in your spot at this incredible never-again-to-be-repeated event this coming March in the Motor City. This is the event where I'll be revealing a rare opportunity to work as a bird-dog for one of my newest investors where you can make up to 3% in referral fees off any deal that is 100 apartment units or more at a seasoned 90%+ occupancy with a current CAP of 8.5% or higher. NO MAX PURCHASE PRICE! Do the math to see what type of money figures are possible! It's HUGE! And only those who attend this event will get to participate. No exceptions.
4) Monica Bucks is ending soon...on Friday to be exact. CLICK HERE to claim your Monica Bucks now...which can be used for heavy discounts on my stuff. The last time I gave away Monica Bucks was over 2 years ago so this is a RARE deal. Take advantage while you still can!
