Tom began building his real estate fortune with the purchase of his first property at age 19. Despite having no credit or money of his own, a deal presented itself and Tom was able to see the incredible potential profits in real estate. This was his wake-up call.He realized deals are born every day in nearly every city, big or small. The circumstances that create opportunities for buyers are not unique, but rather commonplace. Deals arise from divorce, disasters, death, bankruptcy, bad decisions, inheritances, and retirement. These are the roots of all deals and they happen everywhere in the world. Tom was lucky to learn at an early age that real estate investing is a business where everyone is equal, rich or poor. The person who has the deal in his hands-the contract-is the person who will make the money. Today, Tom owns and manages over 150,000 square feet of property rentals, houses, commercial centers, offices, industrial and flex properties. In this book, you will learn Tom's methods and see links to the top videos on his YouTube channel, FlipAnythingUSA, where he elaborates on exactly how to make money as a real estate investor.You will also learn how Tom developed tools to find the best deals in any community and how to out-negotiate the competition. This knowledge comes from years of experience and hundreds of wins and losses. All of Tom's lessons are explained here in a very conversational and easy-to-understand manner. This is your chance to learn from a friend. The book is based on real stories: the opportunities, decisions, success and-yes, even failures-that have made Tom McKay one of the shrewdest and savviest investors in the country.Tom takes you from the beginning, where he started out with nothing, looking for a deal first and the money second. Because as Tom would explain, when you have the deal you hold all the cards. Even if you are broke, as long as you have a contract to buy a property at a great price, the rest is simple. Getting a deal on what someone has and what someone wants is where the easiest money is found.If you adopt Tom's method and attitude, you can follow in his footsteps, making millions on land, commercial and industrial buildings, apartments and houses.Regardless of whether you are a teenager, a senior citizen, or anywhere in between, it's not too late to change your life. You can make thousands-sometimes even tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. Tom knows age and income are not a factor with his methods. Taking action is what is important. So, now is the time to wake up and smell the real estate! You'll be glad you did.

Only yesterday boys and girls spoke of embracing and kissing (necking) as getting to first base. Second base was deep kissing, plus groping and fondling this and that. Third base was oral sex. Home plate was going all the way. That was yesterday. Here in the Year 2000 we can forget about necking. Today's girls and boys have never heard of anything that dainty. Today first base is deep kissing, now known as tonsil hockey, plus groping and fondling this and that. Second base is oral sex. Third base is going all the way. Home plate is being introduced by name. And how rarely our hooked-up boys and girls are introduced by name!-as Tom Wolfe has discovered from a survey of girls' File-o-Fax diaries, to cite but one of Hooking Up's displays of his famed reporting prowess. Wolfe ranges from coast to coast chronicling everything from the sexual manners and mores of teenagers... to fundamental changes in the way human beings now regard themselves thanks to the hot new field of genetics and neuroscience. . . to the inner workings of television's magazine-show sting operations. Printed here in its entirety is "Ambush at Fort Bragg," a novella about sting TV in which Wolfe prefigured with eerie accuracy three cases of scandal and betrayal that would soon explode in the press. A second piece of fiction, "U. R. Here," the story of a New York artist who triumphs precisely because of his total lack of talent, gives us a case history preparing us for Wolfe's forecast ("My Three Stooges," "The Invisible Artist") of radical changes about to sweep the arts in America. As an espresso after so much full-bodied twenty-first-century fare, we get a trip to Memory Mall. Reprinted here for the first time are Wolfe's two articles about The New Yorker magazine and its editor, William Shawn, which ignited one of the great firestorms of twentieth-century journalism. Wolfe's afterword about it all is in itself a delicious draught of an intoxicating era, the Twistin' Sixties. In sum, here is Tom Wolfe at the height of his powers as reporter, novelist, sociologist, memoirist, and-to paraphrase what Balzac called himself-the very secretary of American society in the 21st century.
