Flip What House

I would love to flip houses.

The only thing that’s keeping me from doing it is capital and knowledge.

When I put it like that, it seems so easy. We’ll see.

    I’ve kinda always wondered that myself.

    I may make fun of them, but reality shows are entertaining. If I watched tv, I’d get sucked in. That’s why I don’t watch much tv.

    I believe TV reaity shows. Take Master Chef for example. All the contestants always finish plating up their dishes just in time as they count down the last 5 seconds. Now you just can’t fake stuff like that…

    I’m still on a search for a spatula large enough to flip houses. I’ll keep you posted. Ha,ha,ha!

    @Tony: Master Chef sounds interesting. Maybe I’ll check it out sometime. I used to watch “Ramsay Kitchen Nightmares” and loved it.

    @ MJ: The bigger the spatula, the bigger the profit, right?

    All these flip my house shows do to inspire me is to watch the next episode. I am never inspired to get off my butt and actually emulate anything.

    Hahaha! Yes, and the more in debt and upside-down things get, the more I want to get junk food and watch them suffer.

    Hahaha…. I learned that lesson from ‘The Real World’…
    no matter how hard I partied at night, MTV never seemed very interested in paying my bills. Who’d have thunk it?! :)

    It’s a lot easier to flip houses if you’re Superman.

    “Reality” shows doesn’t seem “real” anymore… just fun to watch so-called “real” people do something funny ;)

    @SpilledInkGuy: You bring up a good point. Maybe we’d all act more daring if there was no financial consequences.

    @Binky: Superman unfortunately cannot qualify for a mortgage these days since his job at the paper doesn’t pay good enough.

    @alecho: Local news can be a fun reality show. Ever see this? http://bit.ly/bDasS4

    That is an answer that the world may never know. It’s kinda like the tootsi pop
    question.lol

    The funny thing is most people who flip houses have a formula regarding how many homes they need to flip in order to purchase a home with cash flat-out. Guess how many homes that is? Tha-rrreee!

    I always thought those shows were how-to classes. :D

    I must say I’ve never heard of house flipping before.

    @George: They’re like cooking shows but for burning cash.

    @Tony: Check out the shows if you can. They’re a blast!
