WE ARE NUMBER TWO! WOO HOO!

OK, so most people do not bragg about being #2 (not like Avis did years ago) but we are pretty proud of it here in ND these days... especially Western North Dakota.

Most of my posts over the last 3 years have been related to either our flooding in the Mouse River Valley or the Oil Boom in Western North Dakota. This post is Oil related. I capitalize Oil because man-o-man Oil is bringing in the Capital.

I've post many pleas for contractors to get their idle crews off their rear ends and out here because we can use all the workers the Nation has sitting around... right now... REALLY! I say really because despite all my pleas I still get several call a week from contractors asking me "really???". Yes Really.

In January of this year (2012) North Dakota replaced Alaska as the #3 oil producing State and last week we replaced California as the #2 oil producing State. Look out Texas, we are looking to be #1.

North Dakota has been #1 in the Nation for several years as the State with the lowest unemployment, highest State Cash Reserves, the only State without a deficit budget, highest per capita of millionaires, and on and on and on.

North Dakota is the land of oppertunity, has been for the last decade and is only getting stronger. Weather you want a great place to raise your children or a place you can earn a decent wage take a close look at what North Dakota has to offer.

We are number 2 this year at Keller Williams and as the 2nd largest real estate firm in the US and surpassing all the big names over the last 6 years is a huge accomplishment. 

We expect to take over the number 1 spot this year adn then it is onto the world  domination.

I wouldn't have guessed that North Dakota would be in second top state for oil.  Sounds like it is a booming place to be right now!

Kevin, I had hoped to be part of the team earlier this year but the Fargo ND KW branch decided they were not ready to branch out to Minot ND yet. I think they may regret it because this is the booming place. Minot ND is expected to more then double in 5 years. Maybe I will be part of the KW team in the future.

Rob, it's just plain nuts out here, truly "The Wild West". I believe the opportunity here equals the great land and gold rushes of the past.
