That is the perfect thing to say.<BR/><BR/>CEO: Short of actually walking into the bank since it is in another state I did all those things already. Thank you for the support.<BR/><BR/>Sallyacious: I've never considered going back to school, I wouldn't know what to go for and I didn't enjoy it the first time. At this point becoming a hobo really does sound nice, time to move to a beach and live off of garbabe cans.Erishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10913461157351555545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274640673153000107.post-58295278833726230922009-03-14T21:34:00.000-07:002009-03-14T21:34:00.000-07:00Wow. Excellent advice from the CEO. <BR/><BR/>I would also say, now looks like an excellent time to go back to school. You get federal aid that way and come out with more earning potential at the other end.sallyacioushttp://www.sallyacious.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274640673153000107.post-24377666385856460512009-03-14T14:29:00.000-07:002009-03-14T14:29:00.000-07:00The only pro-active suggestion I can come up with is to head to the foreclosing bank and try to make the argument that since you have lived there for five years and have been an excellent tenant, the place will move faster for them if it is occupied than empty since it might appeal to an investor. Empty, it will just add to their inventory of non-performing REO (real estate owned - it's how it's carried on the books). I'd also stress that you'd send your rent check to them, and add to their cash flow, and hence their earnings. You will need to talk to a high level manager to pull it off. Dress like a business woman. Be serious. Smile. Pretend you're me in drag. Go make it happen. No rah rah, this is strictly business. There's something in it for both of you.<BR/><BR/>When he or she says the bank isn't into property managemnt, offer to take over that function for a fee, and you have just solved the job problem. When the world hands you lemons, see if you can find the person with the vodka and the one with the vermouth.<BR/><BR/>MontyThe CEOhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02132181032041726978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7274640673153000107.post-4746023223393634132009-03-13T21:40:00.000-07:002009-03-13T21:40:00.000-07:00Shit. <BR/><BR/>Shit shit shit shit shit.<BR/><BR/>That is horrible and rotten and awful. <BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry.sallyacioushttp://www.sallyacious.comnoreply@blogger.com
