You'll get a kick out of this...for a couple of reasons.  You'll realize what a bonehead one of my students is and, unfortunately, you may realize that you're being the same way after you've had a good laugh at the ridiculousness.

So...one of my oldest students (not by age, mind you) brags that he's been following me since 2002/2003-ish.  So...do the math.  That's about 20 years.  I think he's one of my "oldest" students still around (although that will probably change after he reads this email).

Yet he doesn't own his own apartment building.  He manages one, though.  It's 66 units to be exact.  And he boasts the fact that he's single-handedly brought it up from a 29% occupancy to full.

Good job.  Glad you are making someone else rich while doing all the slave work for your boss.  I'm sure he's proud.

But...because he's used to "managing" (not "owning," remember) a 66 unit, it's beneath him to own any building below that amount of units.  He wants something bigger, he exclaims. None of this "smaller" building nonsense that I've been teaching my students will do under any circumstances.

It's almost like working for Microsoft as an employee, wanting to start your own business but your new business has to be a Fortune 500 right off the bat or...well, you just won't do it at all.

How stupid is that mentality?!

Yet, as history seems to be unraveling for this student, it seems that wanting to own something bigger is the only obstacle for him not owning anything at all!

By the way, do you want to know the fastest way to piss me off?  Introduce yourself to me at any of my seminar events like this, "I've been a student of yours for 20 years but I haven't done shit with any of your information yet."

Trust me when I say that more than a healthy handful of my students have done this and every time it's like listening to nails on a chalkboard through a double bullhorn.

For those of you who have been following me for that long -- or even the past year -- you'll know that I personally have DRASTICALLY altered my PERSONAL investing methodology and strategy to exclusively focus on smaller buildings for the following reasons:

1)  No competition with the bigger investors.

2)  Properties are "mom and pop" owned allowing for all kinds of creative financing, lowered asking price, land trusts/contracts, etc.

3)  Cash flows, by "volume" are actually HIGHER than in a larger building; this is due to the LOWER operating costs by percentage against the gross operating income (gross rental receipts).  By "collecting" a bunch of little properties, you can see your overall operating expenses stay a steady low 40% to 45% instead of paying 65% of your gross income out in expenses (as you do with larger buildings).

4)  Qualification for smaller buildings is a CINCH, especially if you are a new investor with no management resume, no portfolio of buildings, no experience, and no assets to support a multi-million-dollar loan/mortgage as with what is NOW REQUIRED for you to acquire large multi-million-dollar acquisitions.  Banks/lenders do not expect to see any of the above with a small building, as you are a new investor and everyone has to start somewhere.

5)  A bank will put up with a lower personal FICO score and/or minor credit deficiencies when the loan risk isn't that high.

Yes, you can invest in larger buildings...as time moves on and as you put together your initial portfolio.  But the biggest MISCONCEPTION there seems to be out there is that you need a 100+ unit building to retire.

And you don't.  Far from it.

In fact, in my last seminar event, I did a presentation showing how any one of my students could get 3 buildings (all less than $500,000) which would result in a cash flow of $14,000 a month...IN YOUR POCKET.  And they weren't large buildings.  Each one was very small.

If you can't retire on $14,000 then we need to talk.  Even MY personal monthly expenses are below $8,000 a month and I own home worth well over a million bucks and drive 2 luxury cars.  So, if $14,000 a month can't work for you then...you're delusional, don't know how to use a calculator, or you're a drug addict.  Or a porn/sex addict.  Or just a dummy.

So...I guess I lost a student because he's going to still be sitting around, hard-headed as hell, and waiting for another 20 years to buy a building that's "at least" 66 units because, after all, he's been making someone else rich all these years by managing a building this size.  And it would be "beneath" him to own something smaller than that REGARDLESS of how kick-ass it cash flows.

You know...like Forrest Gump says..."Stupid is as stupid does."

Hopefully you're not stupid like this, waiting around for no reason.

Now, part of the problem with this student (and many others) is credit and accessing unsecured cash for deals.  And the other part is that we're in an overpriced inventory-tight market.

But I have a SOLUTION for BOTH of those things.  CLICK HERE and join me for a complimentary real estate training.  This is a RARE training because, as you know, I just don't do real estate trainings anymore.

A few days ago I landed here in Honolulu, Hawaii.  And I overheard something so ridiculous, I'm still actually quite shocked about it.

As my daughter and I were heading out of the baggage claim area, we were trailing behind this family of four: two parents and a boy...and a girl...?  Not sure.  Both kids were age 6 and maybe 4.

Anyway, I overhead the mother say to the older kid, "I know you're a girl but all your paperwork still says you're a boy so you have to understand that.  Your birth certificate says you're a boy.  And until we can get that changed, when people ask if you're a boy or girl, you still have to say you're a boy until we get that changed."

WTF??

I couldn't believe what I was hearing so I asked my daughter in a whisper, "Are you hearing this?"

I know we had just gotten off a plane from LAX so you can expect all kinds of liberal ridiculousness from California.  I live there.  I'm used to it.

But this pushed past most of the stuff I can reasonably bend into any kind of justification in my own head.

In other words...I couldn't wrap my head around it.

Now, listen up.  I'm all for the whole "be-who-you-want-to-be" bit and if you go to bed one night as a woman and decide the next day you want to be a man, more power to you.  Hope it all works out for you.

But...

Should a 6-year-old little kid be able to decide if he/she wants to be a boy/girl that is OPPOSITE of what they were actually born as?

Okay, maybe that's a loaded question.  After all, kids decide to become one thing or another depending on how the wind blows because kids are experimental.  That's normal.  They wear their Superman jammies day in and day out, cape included, because maybe they really believe they're Superman.  Or their ballerina outfit.  Or clown costume.  Or whatever it is.  Boys play with dolls sometimes.  I know my brother liked playing with Barbie's with me once in a blue moon.  (Don't tell him I told you that because he's as macho as they come.)  Girls pay with trucks.  (I liked Tonka trucks in the mud myself.)

But...when does it become...I don't know...ridiculous??

So...if my daughter told me at the age of 5 or 6 that she wanted to be a boy...here's what I would NOT be telling her:  "Okay, you have the right to be what you want to be so...let's have your birth certificate changed to reflect your 'new' sex, okay?  After all, you are 6 and I'm fairly confident that you are of the age in which you can make these kinds of adult decisions that will affect you for the rest of your life."

No.

Instead I'd treat it as a "fad" or typical childhood fantasy and let it ride itself out until she's onto the next thing, like wanting to become an astronaut or deciding to go Goth (they call it "Emo" now) by painting her nails and lips black.  I would NOT be playing into ANY such childhood phases with anything permanent by making changes that are hard to reverse back later.

So, it comes down to the parents.  What kind of parent do you have to be to AGREE to make a PERMANENT CHANGE to your kid's birth certificate...changing it from the sex he was born (BOY) and change it to the sex he wants it to say (GIRL)...at the freaking age of 6???  What the hell is this world turning into...and why am I having such issues dealing with all this right now?

As you know, California is the state where all of this is supposed to be accepted, embraced even.  I've lived in California since 1987 and I am finding it more and more difficult to go along for the ride on certain things...such as gender-neutral bathrooms.  Since when is THAT a good idea?  Having a teenage daughter, the last thing I want in the women's bathroom is some creepy pervert who claims to "identify" as a female for the day just to gain access to the bathroom and commit an egregious crime like rape or molestation.  We all know there are too many of THOSE kinds of weirdos walking the planet everywhere we go.

Yet too many people think this thought process is "normal" because we're all brainwashed to THINK that it's supposed to be normal.  And when we express that we're "creeped out" by certain things (i.e. men using women's bathrooms, parents changing the sex of their kid from boy to girl at the age of 6, etc.), we're outed as being "un-woke" or whatever the hell they call us nowadays.

A few months ago I was on the NextDoor app and a parent of a first-grader took a screenshot of a "quiz" that was being given to his 7-year-old.  He said in his post, "Should I be concerned about this?"  And the screenshot showed a picture of a purple unicorn under a rainbow with a bunch of questions that seemed inappropriate for that grade level.  These questions included, "Do you think it's okay if this person is a boy or girl?" referring to the purple unicorn.  "Do you think this person should like boys or girls?"  "Do you think it's okay for you to be attracted to this 'person'?"  "Do you think it's okay for you to have feelings for this person?"  Some of the questions seemed sexual in nature and I understood this poor father's concern.

Yet the "woke" society quickly jumped on the poor guy saying, "Nope, I don't see anything wrong with any of that."  Or... "Seems perfectly reasonable and normal to me."  And making him feel like a piece of crap for being concerned and wondering if this curriculum was "normal" in schools these days.

What?

Of course, I couldn't hold my tongue for a split second and I blasted everyone who posted a comment for being so "brainwashed" into "woke-ness," so fearful of being criticized by anyone by actually formulating a logical opinion anymore, that they all lost their minds...and their balls...for speaking up about something that CLEARLY WASN'T APPROPRIATE.

Within about 10 minutes after I posted my comment, the entire post was removed from the app.

Nobody likes to have "uncomfortable" yet truthful conversations.  And I'm getting this feeling that apps, society, the government, and big corporations are only allowing us to see, talk about, and react to WHAT THEY WANT US TO.  Anything else must be removed.  Pretty soon...people who don't agree with all this foolishness...they will be removed too.

If you don't know anything about George Orwell and his books...start reading them.  Read all of them.  Then you'll understand what our future holds for ALL of us.

But right now, you have options.  In fact, it ONLY comes down to ONE option if you think about it.  Make a lot of money...then move to a peaceful place (maybe even out of the country) where you can live out your days without being hassled with all this Big Brother nonsense.

I can't help but to notice that the government form I-9 recently expired.  This is the form that allows (and requires) employers to ask for identification and verification to be able to work in the United States.  Except that I was reading somewhere awhile back that the reason they are "retiring" this form is because it's considered "discriminatory" to enforce certain types of ID.

Discriminatory?

So...I can't ask someone to verify their residency status here in the United States because I'm "discriminating" but yet if I hire an "illegal alien" then I get fined $10,000 by the government?

WTF??

This is, yet again, another reason why you should want to own a traditional business with employees, lots of forms to fill out, endless rules and regulations, and the chronic headache you'll be getting from ALL of it...all while it sucks your profit margins dry for the "honor" of dealing with it all.

This is one of the reasons why I absolutely HATE doing business in California in particular.  If you do the research on the top "business friendly" states in the country, you'll find California #33 out of the 50 states.  Not bad.  But certainly not great considering that California is the fifth largest economy in the entire world, larger than most countries.  Even larger than Canada (ranking #9 on the world economy list).

When you're a blue state (I'm not being "political" so just here me out), you'll find that there are A LOT more regulations to deal with...more red tape...more bullsh*t to deal with when trying to start and run a business.  When you're in a blue country...well, there will be many more federal regulations to contend with.

This is why I shuddered when listening to parts of the boring State of the Union Address when Biden was talking about "going after" fraud.  What this usually means (in Layman's terms) is:  "I am releasing the hounds on EVERY small, medium, and large business to find ANY kind of discrepancy -- operational, tax-wise, or other -- that we can use to (1) seize all your assets, (2) pile on frivolous "criminal" charges on your back, and (3) make sure you'll never be able to recover again thereafter."

That's what that REALLY means.

So, you have a couple of choices right now in our "blue economic era":

#1:  Start a really small "micro" business that is 100% above-board that will NEVER attract any government attention but can make you loads of money; this is even better when you're selling somebody else's products for a commission and don't have to take on ANY responsibility for the products they sell because...well, they're NOT YOUR PRODUCTS!!

Or...

#2:  Do nothing.  Work 40+ hours a week building somebody else's dream and business.  Fighting freeway traffic every day.  And having the fluorescent lights in your office cubicle suck the life out of you.  For the rest of your life.  Until you retire.  Or until you die.

Those are your only two choices if you think about it.  And I think we both agree that #2 really sucks!

By deciding to start all over again (and secretly...I actually am starting again with a brand new money funnel business I just launched IN my brand new office I just opened), I'm do it without employees and run the operation out of a tiny office where I don't show up but maybe 10 to 15 hours per week.  I have 3 "employee desks" in this new office.  After I had the desks installed, I decided... "Eh...I don't think I want anybody working here after all."  Then I won't have to worry about these new government regulations as it pertains to employees, paying people ridiculous sums of money to sit and watch Netflix on MY computers all day, and other business operation disasters that put me in a "damned-if-I-do-damned-if-I-don't" situation.

This is what we call "New School" business.  Have a business, operate it on a skeleton crew, and make a lot of money because you're not burdened with "typical" business overhead and problems.

Like what my new mentorship can do for you.

This group starts on Thursday, March 17th.  And as long as you have a computer with an Internet connection, you can AND SHOULD participate in this group.  Over 8 weeks I will show you everything you'll need to do to start a highly profitable online business from scratch using The Super System...which is a fully automated online marketing system that -- once we set it up together -- it can make you money 24/7.  And you can have this sucker fully up and running in 8 weeks provided that you give me your full participation (which is mandatory) in the group.

I have a deal on this group...for a short time only...which includes my upcoming 2-day "crash course" (live streaming) on March 8th & 9th.  (This will also be recorded in the event that you miss all or parts of this event.)

But...this "crash course" bonus isn't going to last forever.  In fact, the clock is ticking down as we speak.

CLICK HERE to jump on this opportunity ASAP and get 2-day "crash course" for The Super System as your bonus!

Questions?  Call my office at 66-295-5050 ext. 2.

This is a life-changing group that I probably won't have time to run again for this year...and if I do, it won't be until August or September.  Why wait that long to start generating a solid Aggressive Income Cash Flow when you don't have to?

See you at the top!

Your mentor,

Monica Main
