Jack Butala for Land Academy, welcome to our Cash Flow from Land Show. We show you how to buy property for half of what it's worth and resell it the next day. Great information and instruction from Jack, that's me.
Jill:
Great inspiration from Jill, that's me.
Jack:
Jill, there's gotta be some funny stuff you can start the show off with that's happened to us recently.
Jill:
Yes. I always have something funny. I'm up at four this morning ... I don't know why I'm up. I'm just like ...
Jack:
You live a crazy life, man. That's normal for us but for other people I think ...
Jill:
It's kind of true. That's a good thing to talk about on another show too. People probably look at us going, "What the heck is up with them?"
Jack:
That's what I think.
Jill:
I'm up, four in the morning and I'm on the computer. I'm working on our vacation home for the summer and I'm sending out some emails and things. I hear this sweeping, it sounded like it was right out my door. You know, it's really kind of funny ... I didn't know this. I get and I go out on the balcony and look down and there's a guy in a truck and they actually sweep the sand back on the beach. He's sweeping off the boardwalk. He's not a street sweeper, he's actually out there sweeping.
Jack:
Did you flash him?
Jill:
No. I didn't want to scare the guy because I was kind of like, "Somebody's out there." I thought he would be like, "Somebody's awake. Somebody's watching me." But yeah, there was an old guy out there sweeping. That made me feel good.
Jack:
Jill booked a condo for us right on the beach in Manhattan Beach, California over a month ago for about a week and we've been here now for over a month. That's funny enough I guess.
Jill:
I think what's the biggest funny take away that you and I brought from that week, we thought, "Oh, you want to be on the strand" and they were like, "No, being on the strand is not all that it's cracked up to be."
Jack:
There's sand in my gums.
Jill:
It's so funny, that's true. We roll a little differently. You were like, "I don't like the sand" I'm like, "Oh, yay. There's sand in my car. I like it."
Jack:
In this episode Jill and I talk about how you are stronger than you think. This is one of those shows where we talk a little bit about real estate and maybe some other philosophical stuff, so great show today. Before we start, let's start with a question posted by one of our members on successplan.com our free online community.
Jill:
Cool. Rob P. wrote: Hey all. I'm a complete newbie and just getting into the process of preparing mailers while I continue to learn. Not sure this has been a topic yet but I thought it'd be cool if everyone listed their best piece of advice if they had to pick one. Seeing how I have zero experience, I don't have much useful advice but, if I had to pick something on a more general note, it would be to take action. Far too often, like many, we'll spend far too much time in the research stage and end up never doing anything with it. That's why I am smartly using the "Learn as I go" approach here. That's timely. That's perfect.
Jack:
You couldn't write better questions.
Jill:
That was really cool.
Jack:
You and I couldn't sit down and dream up questions and write them better than this.
Jill:
Right.
