I didn't get a chance to watch President Bush's speech today on his and Secretary Paulson's plan to "freeze" the rate on sub-prime mortgages that are getting ready to reset.  I did however check the treasury's web site, Bloomberg.com and CNBC.com to see if I could actually read what they have in ...

We're still in the holiday season, so while I missed the Thanksgiving Holiday at least we're still in the season and I would like to express my gratitude to some of the companies and people who have helped me to restructure my business, as well as to keep my business going during this restructuri...

I'll fess up, when I started blogging I didn't do it in order to express myself to the world.  I did it more as an SEO tool.  I was really surprised when fellow activerainers started paying attention to what I had to say and I've really gotten a kick out of the sense of community, as well as an o...

As is sometimes the case here on AR, I'll read a posting and it will inspire me to write a post of my own on that or on a related topic.  This is the case here.  I just read a post about being careful with what you say to your buyers regarding real estate as an investment.  It's not that I disagr...

As many of you know, back in September I bought a fix er upper home and ended up moving into it before it was done.  I also experienced the loss of my mother after an extended illness.  One of the casualties of being so busy was that my elliptical machine and dumb bells pretty much forgot who I w...
