Go forth and automate your income!

Flipping products, information, or real estate can be lucrative, but is it an unintentional prison? Do you long for the days when you can leave it all behind to jump on a plane to Paris?

Think strongly about automating your income, not only does it simplify life, but it can serve to free you from some of the things which keep you from making those life changing memories for you (and your family).

Some of my best vacations have been those last minute jaunts, where you just drop everything and take off. There's no better feeling in the world to leave everything behind and on autopilot. Pay your bills online, outsource chores, make friends with your neighbors (so they can watch your house while you are away). Most important, get rid of some of your stuff! Less stuff means less to worry about while you are living life, if its that important, lock it away in a safe deposit box.

Flip and Grow Rich in this Economy?

Some may be asking themselves, can I really flip and grow rich in this economy? Well it's not an easy question to answer. While there is lots of money to be made in this current climate. There is certainly lots of money to be lost as well. In a recent Wall Street Journal article, mortgage rates are reportedly declining, a prime time to buy property. Money is cheap! However, it would also seem than banks are being more difficult to get money out of, so what's a flipper to do? Even Donald Trump is having difficulty in this market, with his Chicago condos, buyers are not following through on contracts. Remember to do your homework, look at every deal carefully, and ensure contracts are in order. Look for the best deal, for example RealtyTrac offers a nice forclosure search on their website.

Can you flip a house faster than cooking a turkey?

One of the things I often think about during thanksgiving is how long it takes to cook a turkey. Not just the time in the oven (usually 6 hours for a 20 pound bird), but also the time it takes to buy it, brine it, prepare it for cooking, cooking it, and finally carving it up. Think about what the average turkey costs. I'd pin the price down to between $20 and $50 for a 20 pounder. Price will often depend on quality, for the sake of argument, lets say $20 for a 20 pound bird, that will yield enough for about 20 people (a pound per person). So essentially we are cooking for $1 per person. Thats a pretty good economic deal considering how much beef and other meats cost. Now if we were flipping that turkey, I'm sure we could get at least $2 per person for the meal. But wait, what about all the prep time and cook time? Let's back up... what if we factor in the following: Total Turkey Time Buying the turkey 1 hour Brining the turkey 1 hour Prepping for Cook 1 hour Cooking...
