Friday Fun…We Thought You Wanted Some Points???

 

Debe Maxwell, CRS  has given members an opportunity to earn 1000 extra points per week until the end of the year! 


YES!

 

 

All you have to do is attend the weekly Zoom Calls (no slipping out after a few minutes). That’s 500 points!

 

Want another 500 points? At the end of the call, Debe provides us with a blog topic related to the Zoom Call. All we have to do is write a post about the subject. 

 

Yes, I understand that the 1 PM CST every Tuesday doesn’t work for everyone all of the time. But ask Bob "RealMan" Timm, who presented and joined us recently.  I think he had fun!!

 

It took me two years, but John Henry, Florida Architect presented this week, and not only was it interesting, he left unharmed!!!

 

 

But humor and points aside, the Zoom calls are an ideal way to exchange ideas about real estate and the markets; it’s a way to get to know the other members, and to have an hour of fun!

 

Here’s the link to our weekly Zoom Calls. 

You can read George Soutos Sunday post to find out the speaker and get the link to the Zoom call. 

 

Yes, this has been another shameless plug for our Zoom calls!  I hope to see you on Tuesday.

Good Friday morning, Kathy. Enjoy the Zoom sessions and the extra points.

Hi Roy Kelley I'd attend without the points! They're fun and I always learn something.

Hello Kathy---just like accumulating points, there is nothing necessarily wrong with shameless plugs.

Michael Jacobs oh yes...I'm big on shameless plugs.

The zoom calls have always been fun to attend and even to present at and I wish that I could attend more of them, but there are more important things in my life, haha.

Nice way to keep the weekly zoom meetings going Kathy. I wonder if they were at a different day and time, it would bring more viewers?

Good morning Kathy. I have been wanting to attend these.  I need to make it a point to do so.  My Dad was diagnosed with B-ALL(an acute form of leukemia) a little over 2 months ago and was having some problems prior to that, at least a month before if not longer.  Anyway, it’s been challenging to keep up with everything.  Thankfully he is in remission but we are trying to keep him in remission.  I will do my best to attend.  It’s something I was going to do this year!  Have a great weekend!

Brenda J. Andrew I am so sorry about your dad, but glad he's in remission. We would love to see you!!!

Kathy Streib - I was so looking forward to joining the Zoom meeting when John Henry, Florida Architect was presenting. My doctor changed my appointment to Tuesday, and I wasn't able to be there. Maybe, John will do it again! He's so creative and talented too. He knows so much about architecture, living in other countries, enjoying different cultures and food, attending schools in different countries, and having a blast with AI!!! I wonder how many languages he knows?

Oct 17, 2025 08:33 AM

Patricia Feager I know about those doctor's appointments!  When you are able to get one, you have to do what you can to keep it.

Well you know what my story was on Tuesday!  Darn!  I don't care about points but I sure had been looking forward to finally getting back on the zoom calls. Hopefully next week it will work out!  I like the idea of the 'homework'  some really good topics/

Honestly don't know where to post this.  Thanks Kathy and George and all the great moderators for the first and possibly last zoom call I made recently!!  Thanks for all who attended.

so

I found this doomscrolling on instagram.  Thought it was worth posting as this is part of a problem of gigantic proportions: Corporate food industrialization and the consequences: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DP5id4dE_CA/?igsh=c2JjaTF0dDU3NW84

John Henry, Florida Architect I bookmarked it and I'm going to listen to it later. What about writing a post about it and sharing your thoughts on it?

BTW I bought bulgarian yogurt (I'm not a yogurt eater) and have it with a bit of honey.

Kathy, this week's call was very interesting, and did enjoy John's presentation.   I have put both last week's and this week's in the Contests under Debe's post, but haven't seen any points.   I know I probably don't need them, but spending an hour on the call, then writing up something does take time.

Oct 17, 2025 05:26 PM

Joan Cox I'll have to ask Debe.

Zoom calls offer a lot of diverse topics and there is always something to be learned.

Now it also offers additional points ideal for those looking to get away from monthly fees.

This post was equal parts helpful and hilarious, Kathy Streib. Thanks for the nudge, the laughs, and the low-key peer pressure. I really appreciate the reminder that learning and connection don’t have to feel like a chore. Count me in for the next round of Tuesday fun!

Had something going on a week ago Tuesday, but not this week.  Like others have shared, I hate to miss them and feel guilty when I do.  See you next Tuesday!
