> HI..As I said before.I don't know anything about Carleton Sheets.And Yes there are alot of people selling scams out there. But I am sorry my friend...the common ordinary person out there CAN make money in real estate because I am a ordinary person and I started an investment group in my local area and everyone in that club has made money in real estate (And they were just normal ordinary people). But I will say that it is not easy ..it takes effort to learn and takes effort to do.Its not a quick and easy get rich quick scheme that it is promoted to be. Yes you can do flips and have a faster turnover but these deals are not around every corner. You have to do the research, have the skills and put the time into finding these deals. My real estate is part of my long term investment strategy and it is a sound one. I have friends all over Canada, the US and New Zealand/Australia who have done well with real estate and yes ALL of the were ordinary people. My point is if real estate investing is an interest of yours than treat it like a business...learn the knowledge and skills (go to the library), contact someone you know who has done well in this area and ask them to share with you how they did it (get mentoring), and then go out and learn some more and start researching your local area. There are so many ways to invest in real estate I can't possibly go into them here (some examples are tax liens/deeds, foreclosures, lease/options, wraps, joint venturing, rentals, condo conversions, rehabs,REITs etc ....). As for Bush fixing social security...thats goes way beyond the scope of this forum...and has nothing whatsoever to do with someone being able to make money in real estate.If it didn't work for you..thats too bad. No One thing will work for everyone. Every person has strengths or weaknesses and some businesses are a better fit for one person or another. I never made any money whatsoever in MLM but I know people who did. Its just not my business..it didn't suit me and I wasn't good at it. Real estate was a better fit for me..and I love it. You tend to do better in a business which you have a passion for.
In refernce to the question here, Carlton sheets is a SCAM artist. As far

> FACT!

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
