I met Dave Ramsey. Agree and Disagree...

Back around 2013 at a Mardel's in Oklahoma City I ran into Dave Ramsey. Before 2013 I had heard of Dave Ramsey and listed to his radio show for several years off and on. I don't agree with everything he says and a lot of it is common sense that I talk about and half a million other people talk about. After listening to him and meeting him in person I have to say there are two sides of him. He's a nice guy that does want to get people out of debt. He does carry a grudge against lenders due to how he was treated 30 years back when he was going through debt issues. He is the kind of guy that is warm and welcoming, but he does skew and amplify his personality on the radio. Some of this is for entertainment purposes. One thing for sure, beyond anything and everything else, I see Dave Ramsey as a Marketer. The information he provides is basic and he repeats a lot of his answers over and over for years now. You know what? That's not a bad thing. I like him just

Answering your Questions: 1 through 4

Original post on Our first Q & A! click here Let’s start: 1) How can I invest in the stock market without losing money? Is there a way to guarantee I will not lose it all? Any time you invest in the stock market you are risking losing money and making money. When people refer to the stock market they are often referring to NASDAQ, the Dow, and the S&P 500 indices. There is a debate about relying too much on the history of the stock market and where it will go. I personally like to look at the history as a whole to get a picture on how it recovers and changes over time. When it comes to single stocks, mutual funds, bonds, ETFs, and the such I have to tell you to research the current information and health of those businesses and not the history of that specific investment. The stock market has had over 10 recessions since the 1920s and the United States has had over 40 recessions since the “Panic of 1785” based on various issues around war, revolutions, agriculture,

New Career without a Degree

Original post here:  New Career without a Degree While putting together this site and making business contacts to help provide resources and give story leads, I received a call concerning Real Estate Education. Now, this is an area I've been interested in for a long time and I haven't taken the dive to get my Real Estate License...yet! I spoke with some local real estate businesses and looked over my own information since becoming a landlord. After making money in stocks, I advocate that the next step should involve something with real estate. Out of thousands of people, I interviewed the ones that have a net worth over a million are involved in real estate. What is amazing is that you don't have to go to college. Of course, you should check your state's requirements for becoming a real estate agent or a broker. This is my state of Oklahoma's REC www.ok.gov/OREC/ If you are interested in becoming an agent or broker then I would like to point you to this

Money saving tip...

Original post at Saving Money Tips I was looking through old books and scanning the internet when I found few things that threw me back into nostalgia mode. I also thought I'd add a couple new things I do too. So back when BlockBuster Video was still a company, and I was very poor, I did very little for entertainment. Hulu wasn't around, Netflix didn't stream they mailed you dvds, and Amazon was starting to get into other products than books. There was no such thing as a YouTube ad! There was a company I found that worked like Netflix but they would mail me a video game. I loved my video games. Now days I enjoy them and I'm no longer obsessed. Well I found out that company I used still exists! Game Fly! I'm thinking of using them again with my older consoles. Here's a link: Game Fly! (affiliate link) Let's get back to saving money. One of the everyday tips I can give you is no secret and that is to eat from home. I did it when I was poor and I s

Otaku can be millionaires!

All young Otaku can become millionaires?! Sure. Hey, I’m Hickory from the ComfyMillionaire.com and I want to tell you something that hits close to home. Otaku are oddly positioned to become millionaires thanks to our social behaviors, but we have to harness it. Take me for an example. I have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, issues with social environments etc. I’m an Otaku who later crawled out of my shell and exploded with possibilities. I have a business, buy houses with cash, and like to invest in the stock market. Enough about me, how about you and you becoming a millionaire? Let’s cut to the chase. If you are a young Otaku you can do this or at least start creating a plan to do this. If you are in the United States you have to check your local state laws because you have to be either 18 or 21. Begin planning to save money. Due to our general difficulty to socialize at times and our sixth sense to be awkward, we Otaku generally save money from d
