No MichaelC, I was not goofing around. Politely, F.Y.I. a Rain Baby is anyone who was born in seattle, WA "The Rain City". There are Seattlites but no Rain Men (though maybe you just started something new here) and I am a man. My intention was and is to help your members, my fellow investors, yourself and the newbie add a very valuable/worthy tool to their real estate tool box, which I knew I was doing, you know I did (please don't dummy up) and a fellow investor recognized this and has made it written that they think my post is worthy. Which again everyone here knows it is. The reason my original post is the way it was written is because I was excited about becoming a member of this forum, adding value to it and taking up your offer of a free book for posting something worthy on the site. I even foresaw your members/my fellow investors recognizing the wothyness of my post and again it has been written. You have also made my original post controversial making it fit the mold for the free book even more. To add to that, you have shown your member that wrote I'm worthy of the free book that you also haven't kept your word to them about sending me a free book if they think my post is worthy. Please keep your word. ***MichaelC Posted: Dec 22 2002, 12:14 PM Post something in any of the forums that I, or even another member thinks is particularly worthy, and I'll fire off to the lucky recipient a free copy of my book, The Naked Investor, (The Creative Techniques of Lease Purchasing Stripped to the Bare Essentials). It could be something controversial or side splitting funny in OFF TOPIC. Maybe something especially helpful to your fellow investors and newbies here on the forums. In other words, anything that strikes me as worthy. So, don't be shy. Let's all have some fun, live and learn, educate, laugh, do deals, earn profits, and prosper. I see I need to remind you of your written word and then see if your a man with integrity and if your word is credible. You wrote the above paragraph stating this, "Post something in any of the forums that I, or even another member thinks is particularly worthy, and I'll fire off to the lucky recipient a free copy of my book, The Naked Investor, (The Creative Techniques of Lease Purchasing Stripped to the Bare Essentials). Now, please see below: *** hang on Michael...I have a proposal, always the negotiator. I agree RainBaby is very worthy of the naked investor manual....and, because I am such a giving person, I will foreit my 2nd copy just for her!! How bout I do that and take a ZERO down home in Austin of your hands instead???..just out of the goodness of my heart of course. (I can make it worth your while, let's talk kid.*** I don't know if the last three sentences are directed at Michael or I but thank you for recognizing my worthy post and writing that you think it's worthy. I appreciate that very much and hope it helps your investing career.) Michael, as you can read, this member thinks my post is worthy of the free book and you wrote "Post something in any of the forums that I, or even another member thinks is particularly worthy, and I'll fire off to the lucky recipient a free copy of my book, The Naked Investor, (The Creative Techniques of Lease Purchasing Stripped to the Bare Essentials)." Thank you for your time, RainBaby P.S. I hope you keep your word as you seem like a good teacher and I would love to learn from your book. Maybe you had a bad morning or my original post came across wrong to you. I don't know. It wasn't neccessary for you to respond to my post the way you did upon my entrance to this forum giving something of value before ever asking for anything from anyone here. I understand we are all human and make mistakes. Please do the right thing. Hope you have a great life.
