It really is not the responsibility of the teachers to provide basic life skills to your children.
Why do so many parents blame the educators for their child's poor performance, but never look at themselves as a failure for not promoting education in the household.
You as the father or the mother (2 parent or 1 parent) have to be your child's 1st TEACHER and biggest ADVOCATE.
Start with the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic. Instill self confidence in your young person. Then watch them take off academically.
Have you checked your child's homework today?
Much Love and Continued Success,
Dennis

Worst House Equals Best Investment!
The late, great Business Leader A.G. Gaston said that the secret to getting rich was to Buy Low, Sell High, and Keep Good Records. We can definitely apply this advice when it comes to investing in real estate in this NEW ECONOMY.
It might sound like a strange or down right crazy recommendation, but NOW is the time to buy a house for your family’s personal use and dwelling or possibly look into buying an investment property.
When you look back at the causes of the recession, it wasn’t buying a home that got people in trouble, it was buying a home THEY COULDN’T AFFORD that caused so much pain for so many homeowners. You don’t have to make the same unsound financial decision they made as you embark on your journey to owning the “Starter Home” of your Dreams!
Start your homebuying experience by just driving neighborhoods in different areas of your town that you would like to live in and get a feel for the community, your prospective neighbors, and how your family might fit in. Once you have determined 2 or 3 neighborhoods that would work for your family, you want to start looking for the homes in disrepair, with high grass and poor curb appeal, and even fading paint or broken windows.
This property will be your DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH, your future masterpiece, your new home. Smart advice has always taught us to look for the Worst House in the Best Neighborhood. Once you find your property, negotiate the purchase price, close and receive your keys, then it’s time to ADD VALUE to the property with a modest renovation and some well thought out updates.
This is how the game of real estate is played. Buy Low and Sell High. Here’s a great resource to help you get the how to knowledge needed to find your DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH.

I have always advocated real estate as the IDEAL investment, because of the INCOME, DEPRECIATION, EQUITY BUILD UP, APPRECIATION, and LEVERAGE.
2011 is a GREAT YEAR to buy your first home or investment property. You’ll thank me for this article in a few years.
Much Love and Continued Success,

Wake Up People (The Storm is Over)!
This is a Public Service Announcement. The Great Recession is over people, whether you like it or not. The storm is over and it's time to come outside, assess the damage, and start the rebuilding process. Now is the time to seize new opportunities, new ventures, and NEW MONEY in 2011.
I know that it's unsettling for you to realize that just a few short years ago you felt that you were on top of your game, your career or business was headed in the right direction, or you were just about to get your degree and you were poised and ready to accept that $80,000 per year job offer.
Then IN A FLASH, it was ALL OVER!!!!
It may be painful, but it's time to realize that your JOB might not be coming back, your 401K ACCOUNT might have lost most of it's value, and even your HOME may now have a NEW FAMILY living in it, but you have to realize that you still have THE POWER to make your dreams come true.
Yes, it's time to wake up people and realize that the GOVERNMENT'S not going to help you, your BOSS isn't going to help you, and even your FRIENDS aren't going to help you. Only YOU can save YOU!!!!
If it is to be, it's UP TO ME. That has to be your SUCCESS MANTRA for 2011. So Turn off the TV, get your BUTT OFF THE COUCH, and go to WORK!!! Everyday is your chance to DO BETTER than the day before and build the life you WANT and DESERVE.
Here is a great video that I found that will get you started as you rebuild. These brothers have been in the game for over 10 years and they have built a great company and continue to grow their empire.
