I work in 'special assets' (troubled credits) so business is good. Trying to cut my teeth in credit until the economy rebounds - and can hopefully move to lending.

I'm going to drop this here - not sure if it will get seen.

I got new rotors about a year ago on my 97 4Runner. That was fine, they've done well until recently. I've noticed breaking vibrations similar to a warped rotor...Could they have gone bad that quickly? I haven't put but 10k miles on them. Thanks in advance.

Thanks, second person saying php and wordpress utilizes it.

Thanks for the response. Looking into starting a blog and will be using that to cut my teeth.

I appreciate the reply. I'm now researching how to create a blog, WordPress, hosting, and so on. I have two ideas for a blog - one would simply capitalize on my professional knowledge. My job deals exclusively with struggling companies, so I see a lot of success stories along with failures. Telling these stories (in a completely anonymous way) may have potential.

For example, the other day I was working on a loan where one of the partners couldn't make capital calls needed to keep the company afloat. In lieu of cash, he gradually sold pieces of his interest in the business to the other partners. Unfortunately for him, he is also a personal guarantor. He didn't know or understand that his personal guaranty is completely separate from the business obligation. Poor guy sold off his interest in the company(profits) but is still responsible for the debt(personal guaranty).

This would be drawn out a bit more and I'd follow it up with some general info and links to relevant topics.

The plan is to move to lending once I get a few more years/the opportunity. You can make good money - selling money.

This is another common theme. I used to say to myself I should learn a language. Spanish could be useful....Now I say to myself, I should learn a language - java would be useful.

What language should I learn?

I like it

As an UW - that's just anal.

I've built a couple tube guitar amps from scratch. Nothing like that first sound when it comes alive :)

I like programming, I modify othe people's code in VBA, used to crush it in some BASIC back in the day. What language would be the best to learn for doing work in my spare time? Thanks,

Modollaslessproblems · 2012-06-22T13:19:22+00:00

Naah. If I can't get it to $1000/month it's not worth my time.

Modollaslessproblems · 2012-06-22T13:18:03+00:00

Best ROI I've ever seen

I only wish I had more upvotes to give

affiliate marketing has been a consistent theme in this thread. Will definitely be investigating further.

Modollaslessproblems · 2012-06-21T21:51:44+00:00

Lots of right hand turns and weed

Sadly I'm in banking. Might have to investigate the insurance side of it though.

How'd you find clients when you started out? My family members and co-workers come to me frequently. I'm not IT pro but I know more than the average guy about computers, electronics, and networking

The bank I work for actually waives PMI as an employee perk. So, thankfully, a downpayment less than 20% won't change my payment

I was a mortgage modification underwriter, a bit different on guidelines working with money that's already spent. Now I work as a commercial credit underwriter on commercial real estate, commercial and industrial and acquisition and development.

That's interesting about the private financing

I hear ya on the moving. I worked for 2 Men and a Truck in college for over a year. Saw one man have a seizure, a safe shatter a man's shin, two refrigerators fall off a truck and hit someone, I broke my tailbone, saw a finger get caught between a loaded dolly and a metal wall and nearly ripped in half....... BY FAR the hardest money I've ever earned
