I set a goal for myself to reach 150,000 points before August 31,2009. Well, I have accomplished this goal ahead of schedule. I want to thank everyone at AR headquarters and the community members for making this a positive experience to this point. Currently, I am obtaining requests to show other people how to implement social network marketing into their business. Real estate is a contact sport. So, we have to find multiple ways to stay in contact with people such as E-mail, cards, phone, in person, and online social networks (ActiveRain.) BLOG AND THEY WILL COME. BUILD IT. THEY WILL COME.

The Federal Government has been on a spending spree this month by allocating $3 billion towards "CASH FOR CLUNKERS." The goal of the program was to give people incentive to trade in their old car for a new one to stimulate the car industry. People were able to obtain up to $4500 in incentives. However, many experts have stated that this caused a limited supply of good used cars and parts for the month of August. However, I am sure one can still obtain a great deal on used cars.

wwwdeliateamcom: MAN STEALS 130 MILLION CREDIT CARD NUMBERS MEMBERSHIP HAS ITS PRIVILEGES - 08/18/09 01:18 PM
A man has been charged for obtaining 130 million credit card numbers by illegal action. It is the biggest American case of identity theft to this date. They hacked into retail computer systems illegally to obtain the credit card numbers. Three men have been arrested in the case. They each face up to 20 years in prison and pay a fine of up to $250,000. That would not be a problem for them-JUST CHARGE IT.
