    Get her her own screen name and log her on in the other room that might help!

  • HouseBuyerGuy17th February, 2004

    Well, I don't have a wife but I know that anyone that I tell about the Creative Investor or that I am on the site looks at me like I am nuts! Oh well., their loss.

    Au Contrair,

    My wife bless her fat soul is learning CAD so she is stressed out on her own little machine. An artist for many years, went to the Design Center now in Pasadena, but the world has changed no longer do they sit there with pen, ink and colors. They turn on a machine and oops away they go. So far no go just a small tiny step for mankind. I wish she would hurry, got lots of work for her.

    Almost everybody who gets involved with Container to Houses is going to have to be CAD qualified. Only way I can see to set a client down, show the many options available and then have them select the house the way they want it. Then that CAD creation is numbered and is transmitted to the future factory and the order is progressed. It is finished, the various parts prefinished are loaded on a 18 wheeler and away to the site. There a crew assembles, the plumber and electrician tie it in. We hit it with a bottle of bubbly (very cheap american like Andres) Personaly I would rather drink the drink of my youth. Sautern and charged water. The client moves in. Their children start to mark it up and away we go. Another recent arrival to our shores now home and safe with his wife and kids, in their new home in the suburbs of middle america. A problem solved. Mass starvation among the termites of the world.

    Cheers Lucius

    That is a shame.....Mine has yet to flash anything when I am online but I can always be hopeful.
    He just walks in the office and shakes his head while he is looking at the clock to tell me how many hours I have spent.

    Here's to TCI. Cheers.

    Just a quick add.....I just realized that today is my 1st anniversary with TCI.

    What a way to spend it, but with all of you. haha

  • JeffAdams17th February, 2004

    I don't feel so bad now! I only wish they
    had a service like this 10 years ago when I first started out!


    God Bless TCI!


    Best Riches to all

    Do Not forget to give BACK to TCI. Help the newbies and support the presented products.

    Hi:
    I too am guilty of spending ALOT of time on this site. Actually, just today I was making fun of myself because I often check TCI before email. Yeah, I've got it bad. Oh well, at least it's a habit that can make me rich!

  • HOLLERatG18th February, 2004

    LOL results.

    I actually check my email before coming here. Only I check for messages that replies were posted to the 2,380 topics I have here (give or take). Once I see them, I forego the other email and head staright here. Maybe that's just as bad.

    The other email can wait. Plenty of time for that porn once my wife falls asleep

  • omega118th February, 2004

    I am now seriously concerned that we all have serious problem, called online community ADDICTION or (OCA). The next big thing among e-boarders is going to be addiction killing board... I hope or I may be divorced form....not only my wife but the reality as we once knew it; Welcome to Metrix:-0)

    For the past 3+ years I been working on the Omega Thousand hours web app's project that made me feel a bit strange... after spending 15 hours in front of the screen I would sometime walk to the beach and when there were no people anywhere around, I happened to ask my self what's real; the empty beach or the internet that takes you whenever you want, on demand. Voulla!

    My wife does the same thing, only thing that can get me away from the computer.
    There she is now, Love TCI but got to go.

  • pktd107222nd February, 2004

    Well ,
    If I was flashed the better halves
    wares I think thats about the only thing to get me off TCI

  • hibby7622nd February, 2004

    How about www.thedisgruntledcreativeinvestorswife.com???

    Add my wife to that list.

    It is a funny community though. At the conference we're all going to have to have our alias's on our nametags in big bold letters, with our real names below in small print!

  • JeffAdams22nd February, 2004

    I love it Hibby! Maybe Joel can start a sister site for all the wives! I will have to mention that one to him.

    We were suppose to go to the movies and dinner last night. I got on the computer and before I knew, it was 9:30pm. SHe was pissed! Ready to leave me! I wonder if anybody knows of a 12 step TCI Recovery Program?

    Best Riches,

  • raymo2822nd February, 2004

    yeah my wife thinks i spend way too much time on the computer.

  • Kostanza22nd February, 2004

    It is amaizing site ! I bought so many books and spend at least $ 1000 ,but I learned more here for 2 days. It is fun also. I wish only to have spell check here. English is not my first language,how you can see.
    It takes me longer that I expected to buy my first property. I live in small town and it scares me.
    Is anybody from WI ?

  • InActive_Account22nd February, 2004

    I come to this site because I have a miission..

    I plan to capture and detox Lufos. I'm going to lure him with tin solidiers. and a tin star.

  • JamesStreet22nd February, 2004

    I thought I was the only freak.....Good to see that us crazy people have a place to call home. My wife loves this site because I have made her money off this site...... Thanks guys

  • wstone124th February, 2004

    I'm still a 9-5 working stiff, but since I've been turned on to this board, I work a lot less. I figure after I complete my next two deals, it would be better financially for me to get fired anyway. The wife may not think so, but...
