“People forget that by saving just $3 per day and investing it sensibly over a working life, you’ll end up with around $1 million.”

just lucky to find out before you meet for a secret date, now that would have been a laugh.[]
i remember a friend about 20 years ago didn’t find out his Pick up was a Bloke till after they kissed. My mate used to drink a lot but that’s real bad, would have been enough to turn me off alcohol for ever.

How about u tell us about some of your experinces looking for +ve propeties? How many u have found? Have you purchased any of them? If not why not? If so tell us about them?
To be honest, I have only been in the +CFP market for two weeks, I am learning as much as I can ATM and I have a short term goal to secure my first +CFP by the end of January.
I feel like there is alot of researching and ‘Due Diligence’ to be done on my part before I jump in.
So its new/exciting/scary for me at the moment.
Sorry no exciting stories from me yet. But you will hear of them as I progress with my journey.
I have came accross maybe 5 or 6 in my searches, but have not gone in depth with them because they did not stand out to be great deals.
And also it felt like I found them too easily and thought “I better not just jump on this because there may just be a reason why it is so cheap” Like its a bad area, or something like this.
So still looking…
I think every deal has to be taken very seriously so that the “perfect deal” can be created every time.

Yes Julian, that’s good thinking, but then why not investigate further? U could be missing out on the deals of the century?
In fact, there’s a thing that Dolf de Roos does at his seminars, where he holds up a $100 note says, ‘Who will give me $50 for this?’. People put up their hands saying ‘I will’ (although not all did), and eventually one guy gets up and runs down the front, gives dolf the $50, and gets the $100.
When asked why others did not do the same, some of the replies were ‘It sounded too good to be true!’ Or ‘I thought you were having a lend’.
I think you’ve just got to keep at it, and if it sounds too good, look a little closer, and if it is too good – GRAB IT!
Anybody else have some “UNITS” that are performing as well as Anna’s?
I remember maybe 6 months ago comming accross a unit in Canberra that was for sale at $55,000 and was renting for $120 per week. At the time (before reading Steve’s book) I thought wow this is excellent. But my mistake was to listen to the people who I told about the deal that said “Canberra will go no-where” and “I won’t get any growth there”. But now-a-days I would look a lot further into the deal.
