I'm not sure. But I've worked on commercial concrete jobs as a carpenter to build forms. If that's any help to you?

2017-09-18 01:35:39 UTC  

I was just curious if we have people who are experienced enough to pour footings and the like .

2017-09-18 01:36:25 UTC  

I've done a little concrete sidewalks and setting posts.

The housing industry in my area is particularly booming and I would love to organize something, my father has been a respected contractor for some time and is essentially on board. I would love to get an IE traveling work camp going.

2017-09-18 01:41:14 UTC  

sounds awesome.. i suppose you guys are familar with flipping houses as well?

2017-09-18 01:47:34 UTC  

I tried my hand at remodeling a house I chose a civil war era house for my first turned out great and was fun sold it and made little profit wish I had kept it. All original doors and trim railings and all. What few pieces of trim that was missing I duplicated the original. Had one modern bath room and a modern kitchen but kept the rest old school.

2017-09-18 01:48:30 UTC  

Didn't I hear somebody talking about that in a podcast somewhere?

2017-09-18 01:49:50 UTC  

If so wasn't me if that's what your referring to

2017-09-18 01:51:41 UTC  

@JesseJames You screwed up hard

2017-09-18 01:52:04 UTC  

@John O - on the house?

2017-09-18 01:52:37 UTC  

Yuh

My cousin's father in law is one of the largest dairy producers in the NE. Every year, he buys a few dozen more acres, and absorbs all these beautiful 200 year old houses.

2017-09-18 01:54:21 UTC  

My cousin and his wife are living for free in one. It's kind of crappy, and they have a kid, but all he has to do is fix it a bit

2017-09-18 01:55:20 UTC  

That's easier said than done

2017-09-18 01:55:38 UTC  

Believe me I know man. I bout the house for 75 and sold it for 120 but unfortunately I ate up all the profit redoing it and building garage

2017-09-18 01:56:10 UTC  

@John O - spread your seed and maybe you can get one.

2017-09-18 01:56:42 UTC  

I'm only 22. I have a few years.

2017-09-18 01:57:19 UTC  

That's the problem with flipping, though. People only look at the gross, not the net, and say "I made $30k!"

2017-09-18 01:59:09 UTC  

Yep the gross don't mean shit haha. If I had a chance to do it over again I could have done much better I made a lot of mistakes and done some things over a couple times and spent way to much on insignificant things and not enough on other important things.

2017-09-18 01:59:36 UTC  

I was 21 when I wed my wife and knocked her up the first time lol

2017-09-18 11:57:07 UTC  

^nice

2017-09-18 11:57:27 UTC  

yeah with flipping we would need to have a good idea of costs and plan accordingly

2017-09-18 11:57:41 UTC  

the other nice thing about flipping is we could do this:

2017-09-18 11:57:52 UTC  

- buy house all cash

2017-09-18 11:57:57 UTC  

- fix it up

2017-09-18 11:58:05 UTC  

- take out a mortgage on it

2017-09-18 11:58:07 UTC  

-rent it out

2017-09-18 11:58:24 UTC  

- take the proceeds from the refi and put that into the next house

2017-09-18 14:56:30 UTC  

Money = Freedom

2017-09-18 16:15:19 UTC  

I'm stupid man, I've never even considered a refi

2017-09-18 16:16:21 UTC  

@Wotan Reborn Being invaluable to society=freedom. Money is just a metric to measure how valuable you are

2017-09-18 16:17:07 UTC  

Well it certainly makes it easier
