The Shopping Nazi

Saving Money One Product at a Time

If I Were Single Again

I want to start this post stating, by saying I do not wish to to be single again. I am perfectly happy being married. The whole reason for this title and this subject is what I have heard from young, middle aged. and older people who find themselves without a partner for one reason or the other. I have seen several single people with interesting attitudes toward money, and saving money. I thoug...

Valentine’s Day the Perfect Gift

Valentine's Day is one of those day's we must not forget, or else! Or else a loved one, or mother maybe hurt, disappointed or upset at the very least. We do have help in not forgetting. Television commercials, displays in stores, and email having been reminding me for almost a month. February 14th is Valentines Day, and we should get our loved one some gift. Now we know we got to get our wife...

Beetle or Cooper

This week we have heard reports about gas prices are going up. After hitting a low of close to $3 per gallon for most of January, we are expecting gas prices to start climbing again. With gas prices climbing, the cost of driving our vehicles one mile has started to increase. For those of you who commute any distant to and from work, it will be a big impact on your budget. Like through out mo...

Wonderful World of Trade Shows

Las Vegas is a great place to go for a getaway vacation. It is also know as one of the most popular places to hold a trade show. If you look at the Las Vegas Convention Convention Center there is back to back trade shows. Still for someone like me, who happens to love trade shows, it is not practical for me to spend so much time in Vegas. In fact there is another location where I can go to a tr...

Do I Need Fancy Cleaners?

It is SuperBowl Sunday! There are going to be a lot of living rooms filled with football fans enjoying the big game. There is going to be some emotional highs and lows through out the game. Drinks and food is going to get spilled. Afterwards there will be some cleaning that need to be done. Depending on wild the party gets will depend on how much cleaning will need to be done. In preparation fo...

Gas Mileage Lies

On morning news there was a sniped about a lady who sued Honda for misrepresentation of their gas mileage. It was in small claims court, but still won $10,000. Interesting! It has become pretty much accepted, by all of us, what the sticker gas mileage would be under ideal condition. I am glad someone has stepped up to say, "We are not going to take it anymore!" When I look at different makes...

Touch Screen Desktop Computers

I first saw touch screens computers in the food processing industry back in the late 90's. Since then the technology and the price has been slowly been dropping. As a result we now see more cell phones with touch screens than without. The overall adoption of a touch screen desktop computer has been slow mostly because of the cost. We are seeing the price going under the $1,000 mark. This makes ...

Social Responsible Buying

Last week the name Foxconn and Apple were in all the headlines. It was not about great profits, or some new electronic gadget. It was about the inhumane treatment of the workers in China. What is interesting to note is that Foxconn does not just manufacture electronics for Apple. Foxconn manufacture over 50% of the electronics sold in the United States. Mistreatment of works or labors misbeh...

Secrets of Shopping Wal Mart

Midday on any Saturday or Sunday, at Wal Mart, finds families and couples getting their weekly shopping done. We are at the end of January. People are starting to recover from the Christmas shopping madness. Walking we were greeted by a your 60 oriental lady. I think it is great that Wal Mart seek to find jobs for elderly on fixed incomes. After a quick stop by the cosmetic section for some...

Search for a Practical Usable Tablet

Since before Thanksgiving I have been slowing giving into the idea of getting a tablet. I have looked at all the major brands of tablets and eReaders. I have been trying to imagine how often I would use it. I watch how other people would use their tablets. While attending a local trade show I noticed a large majority of the vendors were using iPads. There were only a few who had other tablets....

My clients call me “The Closer.” I am in the serious business of helping people buy and sell houses here in the Treasure Valley. I am serious and passionate about searching the market, knowing the market, helping clients approach buying and selling properties from a very business-like, objective, and informed angle, negotiating offers, and BEST OF ALL, getting deals under contract closed!

I am a full time realtor who loves Boise, the surrounding communities and everything Idaho has to offer to its residents.

Real Estate isn’t always Black and White
Real Estate has been my passion for over 30 years. In that time period I have purchased and sold
properties in such great places as Hawaii, Colorado, California, Maryland and Idaho. I work in Real Estate
on a full time basis and enjoy helping first time home buyers as well as investors who have multiple
properties in their portfolios.

What you will find in this web site is information about my listings, how to find all homes for sale in the
Treasure Valley, lenders, title companies and more. This site is designed to support a flow
of information. If you have additional questions, please feel free to call or e-mail me. The
following is an insight to my life and inspirations.

I find motivation in my life from many different avenues and sources. Metaphorically I use
sports for examples of life events, using those great human performances of past and
present as examples of what one can achieve if they define their personal goals. One of
my favorite stories comes from baseball. For 2,632 straight games Cal Ripken
Junior never, ever missed a game. Reflect on this for a moment, if the average
season produces 162 games that means for a little over 16 years Cal Ripken Jr.
never, ever missed a game. Cal’s record will most likely go unmatched. No
matter the day, no matter how he felt, he suited up and gave the game and his
team his very best. Not every game was his personal best but he gave his all.
His team, the Baltimore Orioles saw seasons where they played for National
Championships and others where they swept the cellar and finished dead
last. When the streak finally ended on September 20th 1998 he was awarded
a 30 minute standing ovation to a packed stadium. Whenever I feel tired, down
or unsure of what’s next I think of Cal, I suit up and give my team my best.

My personal grand slam is my three kids and my wife. Stop by, call or e-mail me and
share with me your life and your experiences. I look forward to meeting you and
becoming a member of your team and your search for personal satisfaction and
personal gain in the real estate market.

Strange this post is totaly unrelated to what I was searching google for, but it was listed on the first page. I guess your doing something right if Google likes you enough to put you on the first page of a non related search.
