How to make a million dollars in real estate, and retire early?

 

Step #1,                                                    

Write a book “How to make a million dollars in Real Estate in a down market”

Step #2,

Sell one hundred thousand copies of your book for $20 a piece.                              

Step #3,

Pay off all the associated cost with writing and printing the book.

Step #4

Retire early and don’t sell real estate anymore.

 

To Help you get started…here are some catchy names for chapters.

  *Plan to be spontaneous, tomorrow.

  *Remember half the people you know are below  average.

  *Never mess up an apology with an excuse

   *Multitasking means screwing up several things at once

  *He who laughs last thinks slowest

  *I couldn’t repair your brakes so I made your horn louder

 *Your Gene pool could use a little chlorine

 *I feel like I’m diagonally parked in a parallel universe

 *All men are Idiots, and my wife married the king.

 *Wear short sleeves! Support your right to bare arms.

 

Never underestimate the spending power of Stupid people in large groups. (People in book stores will only skim the names of the chapters, and when they get the book home it will be too late to return it).

 

You may also pre-order my follow up book: How to make two million dollars in real estate...this will be light reading. Page one start with the million you have already, and invest wisely (that is the whole book). Thanks for buying my books.

Paul...That is great, that god for the depreciation schedule on over paying for investment property...of course you do need income to off-set it with.

Steve...this made me think of an ad years ago...back in the 70's, a guy took a full page ad in the New York times.  Cost $10,000

He wrote something to the effect of 'This is your last chance to send in $5.  Do it today!"

He took in almost $25,000 if I remember right.

It's all in the title.  Way too many people buy books purely based on the title.  I bet you really could rack in millions!

Bill, the essence of Multi-level marketing...or as some call it a ponzi scheme.

Steve,

Your suggestion actually appeals to me.  It just might be easier than what's ahead for Realtors.

Steve, so when can we expect your book?  I really want to know the secrets and I am so sure that your book will guide me through the process.  What chapter are you currently writing?!

Steve.. Great ideas.  I'd like to buy a copy or two.. where can I send the check?  If anyone should retire early it should be you with an idea like this.  LOL.

Thanks for making my evening.

Hello Steve - Your book sounds like a fun read.  I hope I can pick up a copy one day soon.  I wouldn't want to keep you from retirement.
