John's Subject-to Manual Does Not Work.
Yep, that's right. I've had the manual for about a month or so now and I've tried almost everything. I have now quit placing the manual under my pillow every night before I go to sleep....hoping a deal would have taken place when I awake. RESULT: Didn't work Just the other night when it was storming, I scurried outside, ran to an open field & held the manual as high as I could. Maybe a lightning bolt would strike and I would have a deed, $6,000 from a downpayment, and an extra $200 + ca$hflow in my bank account. I checked the following day...nope. RESULT: Didn't work After this, I decided to go "driving for dollars" and maybe I could find a desperate seller wanting to deed me his or her house. So, I grabbed my car keys and ran out the door --- along with the manual. I realized I had virtually NO gas as a result of doing doughnuts in the Wal-Mart parking lot the previous night . I didn't feel like "walking for dollars". A light bulb went off! I placed the manual on the ground, put my left foot on it and pushed off with my right foot. Needless to say, the manual sucks as a skate-board. RESULT: Didn't work. A few days later and a tank full of gas, I was on my way...burning a trail throughout the various neighborhoods. I found a house that was for sale. I parked my car and walked up to the door--with my manual of course. A man opened the door...said, "Can I help ya there?" I was like, "Yeah, sure...is your house for sale, mister?" "Why yes it i---" SMACK!!!! I wacked the dude up-side the head with the manual. I anticipated he would give me his deed so I could be on my way... Consequently, I was told to leave the premises...without the deed. Heck, I didn't even see the deed after I had wacked him. RESULT: Didn't work After many failed attempts, I decided, "What the heck... I might as well go ahead and read it...see what it has to say..." Well, after reading the manual continuously and MEMORIZING what I was told to, I placed necessary ads to attract motivated sellers. My phone has been ringing off the hook as a result. I expect to help a few folks out with TONS of equity who are way desperate. Hmmmm.... this seems to be the path to take. RESULT: I'll tell ya later... MORAL OF THE STORY: Just because you buy a book or course, DOES NOT mean you'll be "sittin' pretty" with loads of cash coming in. A COURSE/BOOK + you doing nothing (or outlandish things like I did)=no $ A COURSE/BOOK + you getting out there and doing some WORK and applying yourself [*MIGHT*]=some $ Which formula are you going to follow? Best of luck to ya, Ichabod P.S. Get John's manual...it works if you do!

VERY interesting topic! I like it! There was probably no better topic to catch someone's eye, make someone laugh, and make a very good point all at the same time. Good job and good luck!
Ok, that made me giggle

As always. Books are there for ideas but the deal is made by a motivated person. Keep motivated and never stop trying.

I'm glad everyone enjoyed my story.
I was expecting someone was gonna try to assassinate me just from the subject topic...
Eventhough the thought ran through my head, I wasn't sweatin' it... I was gonna use the manual as a means of defense.
True story
All the best,
Ichabod
Another experience like Ichabod,
I understand what you mean - when you say that John $Ca$h Lockes Sub To book doesn’t work. I experienced the effects myself the day before yesterday.
When the mail arrived and my book came - I was on cloud nine! I just new that right away the people who were motivated sellers would come breaking down my door.
Well, I waited for an entire weekend and nothing happened. Boy was my motivation flagging.
I listened to my Tony Robbins tapes again and got my motivation back into the green area instead of the red, but still no sellers.
Ok, I decided that I need to take action and went in search of motivated sellers. It seems that there are none left in my area. I asked at least fourty people who lived in moderate houses whether I could buy their house "Subject To…". Surprisingly enough, they had no idea what I was talking about.
After that traumatic experience, I decided maybe I should read the book. So I did that.
Once again I went out in my area and asked some more people (armed with the knowledge in John's book and my yellow pad). Well, I have to agree with Ichabod, his book just does not seem to work in my area.
So I wrote John an e-mail asking for advice. He sent me a polite note and told me that maybe if I made my presentations in Arabic instead of in English, the customers might be interested.
You see at this time I live about 5KM outside Baghdad and it seems that his Subj To book just does not work here, but on the bright side - it seems that I am the proud owner of three goats, two mud huts and might be engaged to this rather large Iraqi woman, who's face I have never seen.
Be careful what you ask for - you just may get it.

You live in Iraq?
A SAND-wich lease option would might work better in your area.
I don't do them cuz everyone tells me not to...so I don't.
You know, if I had known you owned 3 goats about a month ago, I would have bought 'em from ya.
See, I drag-race goats for a livin'. True, they're probably better suited for off-road racing, but if you train 'em right & run 'em through a systemized program, you'd be surprised.
But that career has tapered off quite a bit since I've owned John's manual.
Stormblade,
Thought I was the only one reading from Iraq! I am 40 K north of Baghdad right now.
