I should have added , the being too nice bit? well I normally get a nice discount by offering to complete in 30 days, which the gazump flat hinged on, I was being nice to the agent and used their internal broker for finance and he was a plonker and dragged his heels and the vendor went elsewhere. Wont make the same mistake twice!!
Gazumped on one (I was being too nice) dosh fell through on the other two. But Ive just been to see a lovely little flat with a seperate garage which will be mine before Nov is done…

I read Kiyosaki’s book and it changed my life. Not because it gave me the magic formula to wealth etc, it just made sense and justified the frustrations I’d been feeling and the ambitions I’d been dreaming of pursuing. He taught me to ignore the cynicism of others and the fear of failure.

I’m a UK based PI, nice little (expanding) +ve cashflow porfolio in the UK which I (at the moment) manage myself. I also have a number of European based development projects which if I didn’t have quality managers overseeing, wouldn’t get past the excited wine blurred talking about stage.
I think the point I’m eventually getting to is that you read, digest and filter. Just one sentance from a ten £ or $ book can make or save you a fortune. I will never stop reading, looking for ideas and further inspiration (and ignoring the cynics).
