Brainstorming in Lake Tahoe
It’s past 1:30 am. After getting overwhelmed with trying to put together an action plan for the next few months I decided to take a random trip to one of my favorite places: Lake Tahoe. In critical points in my life I find it helpful to go to the nature. She supported my decision and off I went. I think I will stay here for two nights.
Now before you get all riled up about my spending. It’s not that far of a drive and I’m staying cheap. The benefit of reaching a breakthrough and resulting burst of productivity for weeks to come will be well worth the small investment. So it’s a business trip…
I won’t leave you hanging about the other stuff. I got the car window fixed and borrowed some money to catchup and pre-pay my rent. So I’m all good till July 1st.
During this trip I plan to get caught up on all my email and messages, put together an action plan and send an update to my personal mailing list. I haven’t updated my people in like 4 months. I normally like to send out updates every 1-2 months.
The update will briefly recap the latest on my foreclosure story and will outline all the different opportunities that I have cooking that came in as a result. I will share needs and provide a way for people to participate. It will be fun and profitable for everyone involved.
From facing foreclosure to facing success! All this debt is gonna get paid off in no time at all!
I’m feeling better, can you tell? Must be the clean mountain air.
(Also, we will be moving to a fully dedicated server any day here so please excuse any downtime, including inconsistent comment behavior.)

GENIUS! [applauds]
Best. Post. Ever.
Oh man, I can’t wait to see the comments for this one.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:45 am
I give up. I dont even know what to say. I am just too frustrated to even continue reading this train wreck.
Good bye.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:48 am
I won’t leave you hanging about the other stuff. I got the car window fixed and borrowed some money to catchup and pre-pay my rent. So I’m all good till July 1st.
And then what? More desperate last-minute borrowing?
Or why not do something really radical and GET A JOB?
By July 1st you could have over two months’ worth of proper, contractually guaranteed income. And if you do a basic 9-to-5er, that leaves you with loads of spare time to pursue your other dreams.
That’s exactly the system I used when I hit financial difficulties a few years back, and it worked brilliantly - even the temping wasn’t too bad, as it gave me an insight into all sorts of professions that I knew nothing about before, working alongside people who actually knew what they were doing, because their livelihoods depended on it.
ASW = “passive”, which has been your problem all along.

After getting overwhelmed with trying to put together an action plan for the next few months…… some time to think and brainstorm.
Try not to get overwhelmed thinking again.
Now before you get all riled up about my spending…….and borrowed some money……
Who on this planet would lend you money? You are still not EARNING any money, you are just borrowing it. It will run out at some point. Exactly how much have you borrowed this time?
All this debt is gonna get paid off in no time at all!
I’d like to believe you, but your track record says no. So are you able to meet the balloon payment due later this month? Are you up to date with Cashcall?
During this trip I plan to …….. put together an action plan
I look forward to reading it by Saturday.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:16 am
I think he’s living in the car, as of right now.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:17 am
dude, you have no idea how to tell a story. you’re good with the buildup to the critical point of conflict (i’m being kicked out and might have to live in a car, i don’t have the money to fly home from arizona, i don’t have any money to pay cashcall etc) - then how do you resolve it?
money / debt magically appears out of your man purse. you can’t keep doing this. you were down to your last few dollars, suddenly you could fix a busted car window, get insurance, magically find another lender and take a vacation to lake tahoe.
you need a more creative resolution to these conflicts.
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:20 am
“From facing foreclosure to facing success! All this debt is gonna get paid off in no time at all!”
Hope it’s not gonna be with the ASW I got : leverage
by the way, what is the exact amount of that debt now you have faced foreclosure on every property ? Why don’t you get a job ? You could still work on new projects on evening.
Good luck…
May 2nd, 2007 at 2:59 am
Just in case Casey’s miraculous recovery was in any way financed by his corporation, I just thought I’d post this link:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6443185.stm
…as a cautionary tale of what happens to people who allegedly use their corporation as a personal piggy bank.
ASW: “semivegan” - though I’d change the ‘v’ and the ‘n’ to ‘l’ in both cases.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:01 am
YOU DA MAN
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:06 am
So I have to ask. Who did you borrow the money from to pay your rent?
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:11 am
The Trollathon continues.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:20 am
You BORROW more money and think you’re on the road to success. Kid, I hope you like taking it up the @$$ because that’s what’s about to happen to you.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:36 am
Casey, what do you mean that all the debt will paid in no time at all?
You have a massive amount of debt…
Did you get another SPAM mail on precious metal stock?
“I will share needs and provide a way for people to participate. It will be fun and profitable for everyone involved.”
Like 24% return?
Casey, get a job.
Stop thinking thinking thinking thinking thinking.
Feel free to think while working full time.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:42 am
This is definitely your best post! I believe you have hit 97% of the buttons. My only critique is that you did mention Jamba Juice or Macaroni Grill.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:50 am
I predict this will cause a reaction like no other post. Where did you come up with a couple grand to pay rent and take a Tahoe vacation? You couldn’t scrape together $20 just a few weeks ago and held the famous beg-a-thon. I think you had the money all along! I bet the good people who sent you money are feeling burned right now.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:24 am
So you borrowed more money? And made an unecessary expenditure in time and fuel. To me that smells like avoidance.
Steady income. I guess I don’t understand what needs to be thought about in the short term. -Get a job?
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:27 am
What steps are you taking toward declaring bankruptcy? Do you have the paperwork?
Where have you applied for a job?
Have you looked into any counterculture/alternative lifestyle communes? Perhaps you could shift your debt to them. Sort of like a reverse Scientology.
Why aren’t you at least selling t-shirts through some online partner? Why not try Yahoo ads or E-bay ads? Google ads are not the only way to monetize…
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:28 am
this is no longer real. someone besides casey serin is writing this blog.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:46 am
“I got the car window fixed and borrowed some money to catchup and pre-pay my rent. So I’m all good till July 1st.”
Borrowed? I don’t think the word “earned” is even in your vocabulary.
This is as boring as it is ridiculous, I’m outta here.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:52 am
Who are your people? If I were G, i’d have the locks changed before you got back.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:56 am
For the love of god, please go see a psychiatrist. My guess is that you are severely bipolar, or perhaps something much more serious. Though bipolar disorder is pretty damned serious, if not life-threatening in and of itself.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:59 am
I’m wondering what you promised to whoever you sold this blog to.
Did you promise a certain amount of hits? links? comments?
Whatever it is, this blog has jumped the shark. It’s obvious you are trolling now. You’re smart enough to know most will fall for it, too. Too bad you’re to dumb to put it to good use.
DEAL.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:08 am
What happened to NOT borrowing from Peter to pay Paul?
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:18 am
Casey,
Why not kill a couple of hookers while you are up there? You seem to live in a world utterly free of consequences to your (in)actions, so it would all be good. You could then raid their titty banks for juice and vegan crab tokens, sweet!
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:25 am
Either you are:
1) Now just making all of this up for a giggle. Evidence:
- How were you able to borrow more money for the rent when your finances are such a total disaster? Did you defraud again? Did you go to a loan shark?
- The anti-spam word for this comment is ‘whatdebt’. That is either a hint or a sign of you’re inability to take seriously the mess you have created.
- Your stupidity is now beyond belief.
2) In serious need of one of more of:
- Being arrested for fraud.
- Drastic forcible intervention in to your life by someone in who really cares about you.
- Psychiatric evaluation and/or therapy.
- Being put in to care. Like a hospital for people with mental illnesses.
- Someone to follow you around and punch you in the face at least twice daily until you get a job.
I would really like to think that it’s 1), but given that public records apparently show that you did purchase all the houses you say you did, 2) seems more likely.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:35 am
Hey Caseman! I use to live in Virginia City, right there on C Street ! Why don’t cha go on over to Nv and check it out while your there. If I would have known what real estate would have become when I was there (late 70’s) I woulda bought everything in site! Hail, they got 27 bars (more or less) have a drink in each one for me, then do yer brainstorming!
Doc
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:36 am
Carefully considered flame bait! Good work Casey! you’ll be a millionaire in no time!
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:36 am
**YAWN**
Even my ASW (sweet) was boring.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:44 am
Nice. Oh, boy. What a nice solution. Have a break so he can plan on what to do. And declaring it a success right away. “All these debts gonna be paid in no time!!!” If only he went on a vacation 10 months ago, there would be no problem by now. If he went on a trip a few times since 10 months ago, he would be a millionaire by now. Wow, way to go…
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:49 am
Here’s a revolutionary idea: GO CAMPING.
1) It’s nature, which you “need” to recharge after napping.
2) It’s free.
3) Outdoors, under the stars, is probably how you’re going to live for the next several years of your life.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:53 am
Wow a new low. Come on man, work for the man!
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:53 am
You have to be kidding me! Who was stupid enough to loan you money? And then you take a vacation in Lake Tahoe?!?!?!?!?
Are you completely dense? GET. A. FREAKIN’. JOB.
Love,
Hater
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:55 am
So what kind of jobs is nature offering, they better be good considering you go there at those critical points in your life when you need one.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:58 am
are you kidding me man? I am a 24 y.o. homeowner with student loans and payments. everyday i get up and go to work(6-days a week) as a logistics specialist to earn MONEY. i invest in my 401k plan at work and my net worth is in the BLACK. THis is due to the dilligence of going to work, realizing that all good things come with time, and working for my FUTURE not just right now. Maybe you should ditch the Get rich quick scheme and start thinking about your future.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:58 am
Get the $1.99 breakfast at the Tahoe Biltmore.

Timeline guy is the best!!!
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:16 am
I think I’ve finally got your money problems figured out.
Obviously the weed you are smoking is outstanding and in copious supply. An underground sales network would provide you ample - and tax-free! - income in perpetuity.
Toke up, Case!
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:26 am
I call bullshit. Every time you get down, you mysteriously produce the exact amount of money needed to keep this ridiculous saga going without really pulling your @ss out of the debt.
This is a scam, though of what nature I am yet unsure. I am seeing way too much baiting on your part Mr. Serin, too many calculated but seemingly off handed comments you know will incense your readers.
Whatever it is you derive out of this blog, you will no longer be getting it from me.
People, please ask yourself: is there not something a little fishy about this? how long has this been going on, without Casey ever facing any real consequences, with money always magically appearing just in the nick of time.
I call bullshit.
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:28 am
Love ya Casey! Enjoy the clean mountain air.
Hey, by the way, you wrote that this trip is a business expense. I’m wondering what business you’re in. With no financial backing, no business plan and no business executives onboard, what business exactly is it that you do?
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:31 am
unfreaking believable.
You really are a self-perpetuating train wreck.
Stop wasting time “planning” and just get a job!! Both of you!
You are in a big s*** pile and you take a vacation??
Are you surprised you are in this situation?!
You need to be generating income months ago - did’nt any of your high priced guru’s tell you about focusing on IPA’s - Income Producing Activitie’s?
Get crapping around and get some money coming in….both of you!
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:33 am

this is too great… take a “business trip” to “relax” and catch up with “personal emails”
oh man… i can’t wait to see the comments on this one
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:37 am
Casey,
The personal life info is always interesting, but what we’re all really here for is information on how to cope with finances under adverse conditions. So:
How much did you borrow?
From whom?
What are the terms of the loan?
How did you negotiate this deal?
Thanks,
THE SILENT NON-HATER MAJORITY
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:38 am
I sure wish I could take time off to get away and have “some time to think and brainstorm” but I’m too busy working 12 hours a day to support my family and pay my bills. I truly believe you are just baiting the posters - you can’t possibly be this inept. This is why supporters have turned against you - you’re not taking anything seriously. You borrowed even more money? Who would be stupid enough to lend money to you? Seriously, who?
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:39 am
500+ posts minimum.
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:43 am
So…
Have you been lying to us too? Is this entire blog a big joke? After today’s post I don’t even believe your story is for real. Is that what the “big announcement” is? That this is just a big lie and that you have millions stashed away?
Great joke Casey!
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:44 am
Yes, lake tahoe, yea you deserve it. Why not just fly on up to colorado and enjoy the mountains and do some spring time skiing. Its the best with that natural snow. You’re worth it Casey. Dont let the haters bring you down man. you are after all a 2.2 million dollar real estate mogul.
Cool.
Cow_tipping.
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:48 am
Book advance - he has investors - who would loan him money unless they have some skin in the game. Book coming 24.99 - start preordering.
One question Casey - did you replace the window yourself?
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:53 am
This post is Casey Serin in a nutshell. The denial of reality, the living free and easy at others expense, the fear of change…it’s all there. It’s a classic. It’s five star. It’s going on my bulletin board at work to inspire me to new heights.
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:58 am
Honey, “staying cheap” when you have NO INCOME and MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR DEBT means “staying at home” and praying you don’t get kicked out.
It doesn’t mean “road trip”
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:08 am
Reality Check time: Galiana does not give 2 sh*ts on a shamrock where you go. I’ve been here before, when I was on the outs with my girlfriend. It’s the prelude to the breakup. She’s thrilled to have you out of the house. Gives her a chance to put the blue ball, the murse, and your stash of organic hair wax by the curb. Dont’ be shocked when you come home to find the locks changed.
Dude, you’re bi-polar. Severely. Check yourself into the nearest free clinic. Stop going on these cross country screw arounds to ‘brainstorm’ and ‘think things thru’. You can run and hide from your debt for a little while, you can never really run and hide from yourself.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:09 am
Casey, you rock! You made it through again. Another great escape.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:09 am
Oh, and this post gets 300 + replies. Easy.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:12 am
Whatever you do, dont go on xanax! thats what i did under the foreclosure pressure and it will ruin you even worse. I agree. Clear Mind is important!
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:13 am
Dude - ‘all this debt’ will NOT be paid off; your houses are in foreclosure & you stuck other people with the debt. How can you be so dense?
(And your ASW was ‘whatdebt’… funny; you say it’ll be paid off, but you say ‘whatdebt’)…
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:18 am
Who the hell will lend you money? Exploiting family in the old country now?
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:19 am
I love it. My one word of advice is not to push it *too* much - otherwise it starts to become unbelivable. You are a genius sir!
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:20 am
“The benefit of reaching a breakthrough and resulting burst of productivity for weeks to come will be well worth the small investment. So it’s a business trip.”
This.is.genius!
This, I think, sums up your entire insance approach to life! And now I know for certain that you’re a troll. There have been obvious hints before, but now it’s certain. Enjoy your ‘business trip’. Don’t forget to keep receipts so you can write it off the taxes you won’t file!
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:31 am
That was your “announcement”?
Please, please, please, please tell us who lent you the money. Isn’t that more than $2,000?
Your “corporation,” perhaps?
Have fun on your latest vacation. It had been, what, a month since your last vacation? Who could begrudge you a getaway after a whole month of not working.
Just be careful: Your SiL is going to get used to not having you around. And when she sees you can afford all these jaunts, she won’t think twice about cutting you “lose.”
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:31 am
This is a joke. There’s not a single human being on the face of the earth who would do this in an actual time of crisis, right? “Yesterday I thought I was about to become homeless, but I borrowed some money, so I’ll go on vacation!”
If this is a joke, whatever, it’s your thing. If it’s not, I really advise you to seek out a counselor, because this is seriously self-destructive behavior.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:32 am
The only ‘question’ you answered here has already been answered a long time ago.
At least you are consistent. I’m glad you could get away from your stressful napping.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:37 am
You are leaving yourself WIDE OPEN on this one…. This blog is entertaining in the fact that you put your stupidity out for the entire world to see.
Casey, just crawl back into the womb….
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:48 am
I am totally at a loss for words. What do you even say to this? WTF!!!
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:52 am
You know what you really need? A trip to the Bahamas. If you think Tahoe helps you think clearly, wait until you try an ocean paradise. You’ll be able to think so clearly you may be able to reconcile quantum physics with relativity. Think of the fame!
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:52 am
borrowed some money to catchup and pre-pay my rent
Who did you borrow from? You’ve surely exhausted all conventional lenders. What are the terms of the loan and how do you intend to repay it?
So it’s a business trip.
So the corporation’s paying, right?
I have a very strong feeling we’re being trolled.
Who is writing your script?
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:56 am
Hey Casey,
I am tired of these people trashing you. You rolled the dice and you crapped out, but at least you took the chance. That is more than I can say about these people who are bashing you. They are stuck at their boring 9 to 5 jobs and are trapped like a bunch of caged monkeys. They are too scared to take any chances in life and they hate to see other people succeed. They love it when someone takes a gamble and loses because that gives them the false confirmation that they did the right thing by not taking any chances on their own. I like you Casey because you got a lot of guts and a lot of gamble in you. Good luck to you buddy.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:57 am
Bye Casey…
You are completely certifiable, and most likely bi-polar or at the least a manic/depressive attention w**** .
Enough of reading this crap. Adios.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:58 am

May 2nd, 2007 at 8:09 am
Where’d the rent money come from? For a guy who constantly has problems making ends meet, you sure have a knack for finding money just laying around, seemingly everywhere.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:17 am
You must have borrowed the money from your parents. They probably gave it to you so you wouldn’t move back in with them.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:23 am
Out of money? Time to take a vacation!
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:24 am
Casey,
(I am being serious here…)
Have you ever been diagnosed with ADHD ( Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).
If not, you may want to look into it. They have medication for it nowadays. It might help you out.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:26 am
Passive is one problem. Greed is another. Don’t want to waste time with a real job because it won’t pay all my debt and make me rich in a couple years time. Need time to focus on the gold nuggets that will make me rich.
Real fact. Most of the people that got rich in the gold rush got that way by selling boring stuff like picks and shovels to the miners.
Hunker down. Get a real job. Declare bankruptcy. Make real, reliable money. Work on some sensible business ideas in your spare time. Most of the people that get rich do it by working hard and living beneath their means at all times. You might want to try it. Dreaming will not make you rich. Ideas will not make you rich. Talent won’t make you rich. Buying more stuff on credit won’t make you rich. The limited fame (mostly negative) you get here won’t make you rich. Writing a book about your failure, greed and stupidity won’t make you rich. Sweat and discipline will. You lack both and spend way too much time on everything else so you are poor and likely to get poorer. It’s a shame to waste your life this way
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:35 am
At first I thought it was youthful inexperience.
Now I realize it’s insanity.
asw: failforward
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:35 am
Seriously, dude, there’s something wrong with your brain. Get yourself evaluated for bipolar disorder ASAP! It’s very treatable. If your vision was bad, you’d wear glasses, right? Why wait until what’s left of your life is in ruins?
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:39 am
“Now before you get all riled up about my spending. It’s not that far of a drive and I’m staying cheap. The benefit of reaching a breakthrough and resulting burst of productivity for weeks to come will be well worth the small investment. So it’s a business trip.”
ROTFL. Sounds more like depression and cowardice to me. RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY!!
“From facing foreclosure to facing success! All this debt is gonna get paid off in no time at all!
I’m feeling better, can you tell? Must be the clean mountain air.”
Diagnostic criteria for 301.81 Narcissistic Personality Disorder
(cautionary statement)
A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
(1) has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
(2) is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
(3) believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
(4) requires excessive admiration
(5) has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
(6) is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
(7) lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
(8) is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
(9) shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes
Though individuals with NPD are often ambitious and capable, the inability to tolerate setbacks, disagreements or criticism, along with lack of empathy, make it difficult for such individuals to work cooperatively with others or to maintain long-term professional achievements [10]. With narcissistic personality disorder, the person’s perceived fantastic grandiosity, often coupled with a hypomanic mood, is typically not commensurate with his or her real accomplishments.
The interpersonal relationships of patients with NPD are typically impaired due to the individual’s lack of empathy, disregard for others, exploitativeness, sense of entitlement, and constant need for attention. They frequently select as mates, and engender in their children, “co-narcissism,” which is a term coined to refer to a co-dependent personality style similar to co-alcoholism and co-dependency [8]. Co-narcissists organize themselves around the needs of others. They feel responsible for others, accept blame readily, are eager to please, defer to other’s opinions, and fear being considered selfish if they act assertively.

Has a single one of all these plans you’ve made since October saved a house from foreclosure or made you any actual money? (Borrowed doesn’t count; who the heck lent you money to pay rent?)
I guess that’s one thing about California’s population density; you can basically just keep borrowing forever, which looks like what you plan to do!
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:41 am
Humor us with specifics! How much does this kit, seminar, program, or system cost?
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:51 am
Wow, you managed to find someone else on the planet dumb enough to “loan” you money (a.k.a. flush it down the crapper). So rent is, what, $600 a month? That’s $3000 for catch up plus prepayment? And then a fixed window (on the cheap end maybe $50), a tank or two of gas for your Tahoe trip ($50-60), two nights hotel in Tahoe plus meals while you’re there…
And now a dedicated server, which will run you at least $70-100 per month for a site that makes jack squat.
You are a scammer, a bad one, and a moron. Always have been, always will be. The sooner you’re held accountable for your actions, the better.

Keep up the great work Casey! You’re headed on the path to success!
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:54 am
Don’t tell me… let me guess… you’re going to put all the remaining money you borrowed, after paying the rent, on red? Or is black luckier?
Kinda interesting you need to go to a gambling town to get near nature. I’ve got relatives living up near you and I know there’s far closer opportunities to connect with nature where you are.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:57 am
This blog can’t be for real. You are just trolling now, Casey.

May 2nd, 2007 at 9:00 am
Good Morning! The beauty of nature is beyond comparison. I feel blessed to live in a state that offers so much of the bounteous beauty of nature! I have had to delete many of your posts because the haters™ are really being harsh. Rather than take the Jetta (can’t risk having that sweet™ ride being put in jeopardy, G™ and I took our new “home away from home that is, in reality, about to be our home” for a little shakedown cruise. If their™ is one thing I have learned about all things mechanical, is that they can sometimes be unreliable. What better way to learn the idiosyncrasies of our new abode than by putting it to the test?
We left G’s™ sister (Y™) shortly before sunrise, I think it was about 4 AM, but I am the idea guy™ so I really didn’t look at a clock (why bother? My days are so full that I scarcely have time to complete my myriad of important tasks, so I just charge ahead at full speed!). You will doubtless realize by my lack of moderation that it took slightly longer than I had planned to reach Tahoe. I had envisioned a scenic 3-4 hour drive, but it was well past sunset when we finally made our destination (more on that later). A temporary setback, but I consider it falling forward™. I learned a great deal and took considerable solace from the fact that Einstein was said to have flunked algebra not once but twice! I am blessed™
To put all of your fears to rest, I will give you a breakdown of my expenses:
Gas: In my defense, I should have read the consumer reports tests done in the late 80’s about the gas mileage of minivans. But hey, I was only 9 years old and I was still compiling that vast body of knowledge I would need years later to boost my entrepreneurial efforts™. OK, we averages 11 miles per gallon, at $3.399, so that was $36.98 (2 fill ups), plus an anticipated $55 in overdraft fees (the rent was paid, remember?)
Oil. Hmm. When I bought the “home away from home that is, in reality, about to be our home” ™, I did not really understand that a mini van is powered by a different type of power plant than most automobiles. After about half an hour of driving the “check engine” light came on. Since I knew where the engine was, and that it had not been removed, I continued on. About 20 minutes later the light was still on and I remembered the issue when I took the Bio Bunny™ to New Mexico and Utah and how made Dave got that I smoked his engine.
I pulled over and began to look around. I am not particularly skilled in being an automotive technician, but I didn’t think it smelled right. It kind of smelled like a walk in closet in a fancy house. After a moment, I recalled the aroma: cedar. Hmm I thought that is strange, Carlos, who sold me the car didn’t mention that I used a wood burning propulsion system. So I continued my detailed and methodical™ approach to diagnosing the problem. When I finally located the oil dipstick (I think it was about 2:30) it showed a low oil level. No problem! I had a supply of Marvel Mystery Oil in the pantry (er, back seat). Five quarts later and we were good to go!
Another 45 minutes or so and that pesky light was back on again. This time, building upon my now considerable mechanical skills, I knew exactly what the problem was. In a moment of pure blessedness™, the next had a Jiffy Lube. I told G™ that we should stop their™ and get a professional oil change. After a few minutes, the Jiffy Lube man came out and said that their™ was something very unusual going on with the van. I told him “of course their™ is. Mini vans use a unique power plant that is unlike those found in ordinary vehicles.” No, replied the technician, the crankcase was full of sawdust.
I had to ponder that statement for a moment. Then, using my superior mental powers I had the answer. Not only had I been a visionary™ in selecting a new form of habitation for G™ and myself, I had inadvertently stumbled onto a very “green” mode of transportation. I was blessed™ by having purchased a carbon-neutral, modified-vegan™ mini van! I was immediately brought back to earth (no pun intended) when the tech explained that sawdust is usually put inside an engine to hide problems.
An oil change later ($29.95, plus an anticipated $27.50 ‘service fee’ from the bank) and we were good to go. It was inspirational that I also stopped to buy several one-gallon containers of 80-weight gear oil (per the Jiffy Lube guy’s suggestion). We were off on our panoramic odyssey again!
I found that it was quite spiritual breaking up the trip into 45-50 minute segments. The gear oil seemed to last a good 5-10 miles longer than the Marvel Mystery Oil, and quieted down the engine considerably.
We arrived at Tahoe after dark, and I immediately found a quiet and secluded campsite right off of the road. I went about cutting some wood and building a fire for a romantic theme. Total cost of the trip so far (including, gas, oil and service charges: $221.58 - sweet™!) About an hour after I had set the romantic mood with the campfire, we were interrupted by the sound of a helicopter overhead. My first though was that their™ was some sort of a fugitive lose™. Before I could get into defensive mode, their™ were 8 fire trucks converging on us.
As the men got out of they’re™ trucks, the hurried past us and doused the fire with a stream of water. They were not very friendly and said we were trespassing on US Forest Service land and it was in a no-burn zone and we could be fined $10,000 and placed in jail! Because I possess superior negotiating skills™ I was able to quickly lower the tension level and get along with a warning. I’ll have to make a note™ to contact my congressperson to make sure they use better signage in the future.
Any way, we drove about 100 yards father into the forest and I used the hibachi on the running board to grill a tasty dinner of tri tip ($8.99 + $27.50). I feel content in my assessment of the modified-vegan™ diet by considering that if the cow ate an entirely vegan diet (which they all do, right?) then I am continuing that vegan existence by eating the flesh of only vegan creatures. Viola! Modified-vegan™!
I moderated comments for about an hour, and then meditated™ until mid-morning. More to come later, as I have to contemplate some important core-value issues and catch up on my business communication™. I must never let my network of highly trained professionals™ down. More to come.

Casey:
Never thought I’d see the guy who makes George Costanza look like a workaholic.
Vacation? From what?
Clean air? Puleeeeeez!
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:09 am
Casey - you owe us the truth here. Who did you borrow the money from and at what terms? Also what happened to getting a job?
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:12 am
Running away from your problems wont help anything.
You are in Tahoe, drive down a bit, go to Stateline, and put it all on black! YOU CAN DO IT CASEY
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:15 am
What a great company getaway, fresh air and casinos.
Another win for Team Casey!
Don’t forget to see Trapper McNutt.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:19 am
You heard it here first. He’ll get caught up on nothing, do nothing, and get nothing done. Then give a boatload of excuses why nothing got done. This whole blog has become one big piece of BS.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:22 am
Sounds great, Casey! Thank goodness you are caught up until July, you have a little time to work things out. You DO sound like you are feeling better, and I am glad. Enjoy your stay, I look forward to hearing what you decide to do next!
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:26 am
Dont plan on moving to Tahoe im sure you have thought about it.It takes lots of cash to make it there.Get your thoughts together and make a good plan you might make it.I do not think that you can avoid BK though but with the new laws you might not have a choice but to avoid it.

May 2nd, 2007 at 9:27 am
Casey, you’ve got to be the most optimistic guy I’ve ever seen. Maybe you can share some tips on just what makes you so hopeful with the everything collapsing around you. You’ve really internalized all this positive affirmation stuff they talk about in these self-help books…
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:36 am
Actually I am going to get riled up about the spending:
This trip is going to cost you at least $100, more likely $200. That is several credit card payments. It you have this money in your hand, why didn’t you spend it on credit payments?
You are talking about making money and then spend money you don’t have on escapism and avoidance.
What I would like to see is once you have your brainstorming done (theoretically today or tomorrow) you should also have a plan of action. We want to see you implement this plan of action.
Break your problem down:
You need gobs of money, legally.
State your options for getting this money:
Get and job and a second job.
Long shot it opportunity.
Real Estate venture.
Detail your plan to implement that option of your choice.
Now start benchmarking to determine progress.
Didn’t I write this same thing about 3-4 months ago?
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:40 am
Hasn’t worked for so long and yet he needs a “rest”. This would be funny if it all wasn’t so sad and pathetic.
Whom did you borrow the money from? Who would be so stupid to lend you that much money when they know you have no $$$$ coming in the door? When you write your blog and tell us all that you are going to be frank and honest, you need to let us know these things. Did you borrow from your company line of credit? You know that’s illegal, right??
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:41 am
I also find a refresher in nature a great way to juice things up. Don’t get frustrated and keep at it. It’s okay to fail . . . it is not okay to give up.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:53 am
Casey, don’t you see that the noose ’round your neck is controlled by a hangman within?
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:54 am
“Now before you get all riled up about my spending. It’s not that far of a drive and I’m staying cheap. The benefit of reaching a breakthrough and resulting burst of productivity for weeks to come will be well worth the small investment. So it’s a business trip.”
This is pure comedy. Anyone that doesn’t appreciate the intricacies involved with crafting such a level of comedy as this, just doesn’t understand. Jim Carrey has nothing on this.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:01 am
I don’t know about you guys, but whenever I’m flat broke and in debt the first thing I always do is take a vacation to an expensive resort town.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:01 am
Borrowing is not really considered passive income….
Can you believe Robert Cote got a DUI and blames others for it…Robert can’t take responsibility for his careless acts which endangered innocent people, but he can stand in judgement of you.
Doesn’t the drunk cote site make you feel you are getting to see what would happen if all the loser high school geeks got together to start a blog. They sit around like a circle jerk screaming, “first,furst, murse.” thinking they are so clever.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:02 am
I finally solved everything by:
o Borrowing more money.
o Running away from my problems.
o Disappearing to the woods to blog about my opportunities.
This Blog is just big waste of everyone’s time.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:02 am
You’re felling better because you’ve ran away from your problems. Seriously, how hard is it to brainstorm at home?
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:06 am
ONE SENTENCE TO CASEY,
JOIN THE ARMY AND BE A REAL MAN, GO TO IRAQ~~
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:12 am
The mountain air has made Casey even more delusional. To make things worse, someone is enabling his ventures into the deep end by providing him with endless lines of credit. Where is this money coming from, pray tell?
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:22 am
Keep reading folks, just keep reading. What will it take to keep the hit counter up? Let Casey know and he’ll spin the story.
Say hi to Casey Serin the new fiction-blog guru. Anyone wonder what the “corporation” is based on? What the great “opportunities” are? Where money just “appears” from to pay bills? And why the story somehow hits all the troll buttons so often?
Keep feedin’ it to ‘em Casey. They’re chomping it down.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:22 am
rolling on floor yawning my azz off
your trollz are uninspired you def need to get away.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:23 am
How are you going to pay for a dedicated server?
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:29 am
It’s very simple… if you don’t have money, you don’t go away!!! Even if you’re staying cheap, you don’t go away!! Now that you paid the rent (for now) wouldn’t it be restful and recharging to stay home??? You are a dumbass and a lowlife.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:30 am
Sorry for the delay in comments… I installed a new plugin for WordPress to help me manage user permissions better. This way I can give you instant comments again but with more control. But for some reason the plugin now locked me out of the system and I have to go into the DB and disable it manually. Hey I guess it will give me an excuse to get more familiar with the schema. It’s all good.
The view is beautiful here! It’s raining/snowing and sun at the same time.
A nice juicy update is coming with details on all the stuff I’ve had cooking. Stuff that I haven’t really told you about. There is also going to be opportunities to contribute and participate.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:36 am
OK Everyone - this one is pretty obviously a fishing expedition to get more hits / stir up the haters.
DO NOT RESPOND. This is lame, even by Casey standards, don’t feed the troll.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:37 am

You would have been better off volunteering some time at the nearest homeless shelter; talk about inspiration! You would get an opportunity to see where you’ll end up if you don’t get job soon.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:46 am
Juicy update? I look forward to the juice. Not a big fan of wheatgrass, though.

You got burned out on the planning phase? If you can’t manage the stress of just writing down what you’re going to do then actually doing it is going to totally trash you.

ahh. snowflake you must feel the comfortable to be back with other snowflakes. dont you get to the comfortable i fear for your safety my friend. i think you should buy a small handgun for which to protect your selve.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:57 am
you’re an idiot. what part of JOB don’t you understand? You think everything in life is a do-over and nothing has consequences. You have the NERVE to spend $4 on a jamba juice and $60 on gas for your Lake Tahoe “getaway” and then BEG FOR DONATIONS to cover a $200 shortfall.
It’s beyond stupid, it’s RUDE. you’re a jerk.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:06 am
people, please listen to this!! yesterday i was reading this blog, i felt so sorry that i deposited $20.00 on casey tip jar, i always like to help people and i felt compasion as a christian woman, he email me back with thanks and asking me if i was an investor or a bussines owner!! this was at 1:30 am!! how could he possibly be in tahoe? what is he doing there?
it is like someone telling you , you are going to die in the guillotine and u are just like ok, i am leaving to tahoe! i need to focus!!…focus on what!!
i am so sorry casey..but i no longer support you or feel sorry for you, this is very damaging, u are in lake tahoe spending money you dont have, instead or staying here finding a job, i can only think that u dont want to work and thats it, we all need to stop repeating ourselves telling you this, you just wont do it!! but i guess you just like to keep borrowing money, i am sorry casey but you need to face reality..now!!
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:12 am
Who in their right mind would loan you money to pay 1000’s of dollars worth of rent, don’t tell me you went to a loan shark Casey?
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:12 am
Hang out at the back deck at Sunnyside Lodge at sunset. Couple of miles south of Tahoe City. You will see what I mean.

May 2nd, 2007 at 11:14 am
Hi Casey….Have you seen any legal action from any of the lenders. A lot of peolpe post comments as to you going to jail. Other than doing a stated income loan (legal) was there any other type of fraud going on?
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:15 am
I love lake tahoe…
Have fun, and screw the money… spend it freely, it’s what it’s for.
Have a great time!
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:28 am
you have a natural talent for pissing people off, I’ll give you that. Good luck, you’re going to need it
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:32 am
Dude– a vacation?
Are you for real?? This has got to be some ridiculous spoof because no one can be this stupid.
i would kick you in the shin really hard if i was one of the poor saps that loaned you money to PAY YOUR RENT so you could have a ‘change of scenery’ and ‘get back to nature’. Then I would take your sorry butt to small claims court —
not that you’d ever pay me back
(not until you got a Sweet Deal lined up and you could really focus… and perhaps check your well-organized-records of your blood money….. hahahahahahaahahahahahaha…oh sorry, the hysteria overtook me)
——but for the sheer delight of adding more misery to your already pitiful credit report.
How can you even look yourself in the mirror knowing how you steal from people so you can go to Lake Tahoe???
This won’t affect you in the slightest because you lack integrity, ethics and morals.
Guess who is running your life Casey? It ain’t God. Figure it out.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:33 am
I grow more mystified. Your corporation is suspended by the FTB, yet you call a foray to Tahoe a business expense. You don’t say it exactly but somehow you managed come up with $2200 yesterday and have enough left over to “get outta Dodge” fer a few dayz. Your apparent ability to continually tap the tapped out is astounding. This is “The Secret” you need to share.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:33 am
Blah blah blah plan of action blah blah blah I borrowed more money blah blah blah wordpress plugin downtime server blogging mailing list blah blah Tahoe.
SHOW us what you’re actually DOING, boy genius.
By the way, you with the 90 mph speeding tickets and the disposable car with the broken windows and the new seatcovers and the oops my insurance just lapsed: Try not to drive too fast around Tahoe. The place is absolutely crawling with cops. There’s plenty of property tax revenue but no crime, which equals tons of cops with nothing better to do than write tickets.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:34 am
Oh… just one more little comment
You need to change the name of this website to:

Good job! Keep up with the digging!
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:51 am
Couldn’t find anything in the DB to disable the plugin, so I just deleted the directory. That worked. Trying a new role manager plugin to see if this one works.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:01 pm
I am going to give you the benefit of doubt.
I realy hope you say something good.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:02 pm
Dang, I was hoping you’d spend at least one night outdoors in the city homeless just to troll us all. Now it looks like there will be no good drama here for months to come.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:10 pm
casey,
I suggest you hook up with Pud Kaplan and ask him for a job. He runs the internet juggernaut “Adbrite” and you two seem like you could bounce ideas off each other. Sweet!
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:15 pm
This user roles plugin is sweeeeet! It lets me create user groups with very specific permission settings. All of you who registered are currently “User Level 0″.
I am going to upgrade you guys to “User Level 1″ which will allow instant comments. New registrations will have to be manually approved by me before they can go instant. This will cut down on trolls.
However it requires some of my time for approval. To expedite the approval process I will let people “bribe me” with a PayPal donation. The bigger the donation the faster the approval time.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:15 pm
Borrowed money for a trip to Tahoe? Priceless. Just priceless. For you at least.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:18 pm
Suckers.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:20 pm
Casey:
If you sell the Jetta and get an RV you can go to Tahoe any time you want.
P.S. Any luck at the tables?
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:30 pm
Now all I need is a plugin to email the registered users to let them know they have been approved for instant comments. Letsee what I can find…

Because tinkering with the blog seems more like shiny-thing timewasting to me. Focus, remember?
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:44 pm
Casey, you are the biggest troll on this blog.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:51 pm
Like Im going to pay you to get insta-comments when we can do that over at ExurbanNation.
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:52 pm
Casey, I’m a long time reader and definitely not a hater.
Please focus on your problems and get down to brainstorming instead of fiddling with Wordpress plugins! That’s what you’re in Tahoe for, right?
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:53 pm
So like what are you doing right now? what’s this opportunity you speaks ofz?
May 2nd, 2007 at 12:57 pm
I can’t believe you borrowed more money.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:01 pm
Do I have instant comments? Let’s see…its exactly 4:00 PM EDT
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:01 pm
Nope
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:03 pm
I will not give you money to post on a site founded to your inablity to handle money. I makes no sense, take as long as you wish to post this, my money is safe in the bank and I don’t owe the countrywide, cashcall, or the IRS for that matter a single solitary dime, I have all the time in the world.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:03 pm
Since I have no intention of ever paying you a single penny of my hard-earned money, you’ll probably never approve this comment, but really, do you actually think people are going to PAY for the “privilege” of commenting on your website when there are so many shadow blogs where they can post real-time, for free?
If that’s an example of your “clean mountain air” thinking, you might as well go back to Sacto.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:04 pm
Sweet!
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:06 pm
Is this a sweet sweet instant comment?
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:06 pm
How about a plugin that makes you stop borrowing money and starting earning it with a J O B!
Seriously, if I had a penny for every minute that you have wasted on things that don’t keep a roof over your head and food on your plate I think I would be R I C H!
Short drive? With gas over $3 a gallon any trip that isn’t essential (and for an unemployed person that has been foreclosed on 4 times this year NO trip is essential) the drive is too far.
Staying cheap? At Tahoe? I’ve been there once and unless you are staying in a tent on the side of the road there is no such thing. And you are not staying “IN” Lake Tahoe you are staying “AT” Lake Tahoe. On borrowed money.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:07 pm
testing instant comments…
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:22 pm
Hi Casey
great to see you moving towards your goals in a forwards direction. I’ve been rooting for you from the sidelines but now I think it’s time to come out and say with your website plans you are just steps away from a metaphorical outpouring of a great vat of gold which will be an example for us all. You deserve a big kudos for making it this far, and when the time comes for you to descend from Lake Tahoe, the average Joes will be eager to get their hands on your synergy.

but wait, to be able to find a job we should have something to offer for that W2 money we get back…
what do you have to offer to a employer??
p.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:39 pm
I don’t have any money to bribe you with, but perhaps we could barter. I have the following items:
publicity photo of Eric Estrada
nearly full bottle of lime flavored coca-cola (I don’t like it)
423 shares of GSPG
a pirate hat
some old Hustler magazines
two sponge bob square pants videos (no idea how I got those)
subway club card with four stamps
a 2 MB hard drive that I got out of the trash that has somebody’s sex poetry on it
If any of these items strike your fancy, perhaps we can make a winwin out of it. Of course, any sweet deal will hopefully include cashback for myself.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:43 pm
Your site has become stale. Good-bye and hopefully you’ll wake up to reality after you realize that your 15 mins. are up.
I hope that other readers abandon this site too.
May 2nd, 2007 at 1:43 pm

This IS our boy’s job. He intends to troll with posts about buying stocks and traveling to Tahoe, then charge us to comment. I don’t think it’s going to work.

KC,
Did you borrow the rent money from your corporation?

You could always offer refunds, I suppose…

“and I’m staying cheap.”
Casey,
I’m not sure that $350 a night is all that cheap. But compared to some of the rooms we offer, I guess that’s relatively true.
We at Caesar’s Palace hope that you are enjoying your stay. We are also happy that you are taking advantage of our stay and play option upgrade. You’ve spent quite a bit of time in the casino. Thank you!
By the way, the double order of filet mignon will be to your room shortly.
Thanks again,

Of course she supported your trip. Two days is just enough time to get the locks changed, your stuff moved to the curb, and the restraining order entered.

Encouraging people to give you money through PayPal, just so they can comment?? Yeah, sounds like yet another sure-fire Successful Business Plan™ from the mind of Casey Serin.
BTW, this alleged trip to Lake Tahoe… is this entire post a subtle way of telling us that you were either:
- kicked out yesterday?
- moved back in with your parents?
- on the run from the authorities?

you mean you will let you extort. but whatever if people want to waste their money on you that cool not me though.
May 2nd, 2007 at 3:05 pm
donations will go where?
can your tongue even turn to say that out loud?
isn’t it obvious where they will go?
where did all previous “donations” go?
people donating their hard earned money to this clown need their heads examined!
“respectful user”?
tell me what should anyone respect in what you did and/or continue to do?
people respect only those who actually did something. FYI, acting like a fool to the point of becoming famous for it doesn’t get much respect.
getting rich writing books about how to get rich isn’t going to work for you either. RK already did this, it’s played out. you have to find something new and unique to do, like write a book on how to spell the word “loser”. most people can’t get that right for some reason. supply and demand.

Just sent an email to everybody who registered before to get instant moderation access. Just reply to the email and I’ll give you access.
I’m doing this is to weed out the fake and troll accounts that some haters created.
Thanks guys… the rest of the comments (about 200) will be released later today.

May 2nd, 2007 at 3:28 pm
Here is what I’m gonna do… I’m gonna release ALL the comments in moderation. ‘Cuz I simply don’t have time to mess with it. I have a bunch of stuff to do.
I am asking those of you who offered to help me moderate comments before to help me by finding bad comments this time and emailing me about it.
If you see something over the top, a personal attack, too vulgar, etc… just shoot me a quick email with the comment pasted.
If you are quick and accurate I will give you direct access to moderate comments for me and will credit your website/company on this blog as the official “comment moderator” (unless you want to stay private).
I only need a couple of trustworthy moderators. This would be a test run for you.
Thanks!!

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Casey, I think you are brilliant young guy. What a laugh, all these people come here to bash you - YET they actually follow you and read you - and they bash you - how it’s too funny!
I don’t know if this all for real (on your part) or not. I mean you are quite an enterprising guy! You have created a blog that quite a lot of people follow - you have been quoted and featured in major networks and media. ABSOLUTE GENIUS.
The fact that you have the ability to create this - basically for free is incredible. You are my friend a marketing/pr genius. How much would it cost to get the type of media exposure you have received!
If this site is real - and you really are hurting - then wow are you kidding me…you have more skills in your pinkie than most people have in their entire body. You will do absolutely fine. You will make a lot more money over the course of your life.
You have the skills necessary to accomplish what you want. keep dreaming big, I like the fact that you place God and family in your messages - you will be do incredible.
It cracks me up that these people leave all these long messages bashing you - like they are THE experts - yet they follow and read YOUR blog LOL!!! That voice call with the lady basically scolding you was hysterical. She sounded like such such an idiot who simple wanted to pontificate.
Casey - I get it - and man, hat’s off, genius, pure genius.

I hope you have a good two days up there. It seems now that you have the foreclosures behind you, so sit tight and think about your future and what you want to do.

May 2nd, 2007 at 4:29 pm
I am new to your website and intrigued by your situation. You are hilarious. I have some ideas that may help your dilemma.
1. You have garnered national attention(mainly criticism) from pundits; offer interviews for money. Sell your soul to the media if they offer you any assistance financially. Milk every second out of your fifteen seconds of fame.
2. I am sure a trial attorney would love to sue the subprime mortgage industry. Find one and be an expert witness.
3. You strike me as incredibly lazy so avoid fast food, manual labor, or service industry jobs. Try jobs as a blood/semen donor, test subject, or model. These are passive and require limited effort.
4. Get another loan from a friend and go to VEGAS and play roulette. Bet it on black or red whichever you fancy.
5.Read a couple more Robert Kiyosaki books, they seem to fit your mindset.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:32 pm
do i need to bring you the apple to be able to moderate a little?
question: why are you always building something up with your posts instead of telling us of what you actually did?
you can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.
but i guess you can write a book about it. i mean, not actually write yourself, but have a writer do it for you. just like with moderating comments, painting the fence or cleaning the pool. it’s for professionals. you are obviously way above and beyond any of that . . . actually doing stuff, who needs that? when you can be a CEO of . . . something, blogging about nothing.
May 2nd, 2007 at 4:32 pm
The imminent “comeback” he’s talking about is the feeling he got when the voices in his head told him to bet it all on black. Bye bye, corporate credit account. At least he paid the rent first (supposedly).

You are spending a few hours on the phone with a publisher about your book?
And you spent how many hours playing around with plug-ins on your website?
What, exactly do you think you have to teach anyone? You successfully quit your job. You successfully bought a bunch of houses with nothing down and no equity, getting cash back. You successfully were foreclosed upon for houses you bought. You successfully begged about $350 (if I remember correctly) from your readers and then magically spent another $4000 or $5000 on misc. other stuff… making the readers who supported you angry because you used their money and not yours.
You failed to develop a sensible plan for your RE business (if you can call it that). You failed to be honest and reputable in your business dealings. You failed to use the cash back money that you received to fix and flip any of the properties. You failed to find the missing payment on the Utah house. You failed to sign the new contract with CashCall after you sent them the money you agreed to.
I’m just astounded that any reputable business of any kind (like a publisher) would deal with you.

Casey, be careful about over-moderating the comments.
You don’t want to lose your best customers.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:16 pm
@ #230.
Please don’t post like that again. You’re taking too much room here.
@ Casey
You seriously want people to send you PayPal to not be moderated? Can’t even believe!!!!
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:19 pm
Be sure to take some pictures!
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:34 pm
Casey, your action plan should be:
1. Get a JOB.
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:51 pm
casey,
you know that there are many big plans in store for you….being planned by those you don’t see right now
May 2nd, 2007 at 5:59 pm
I believe in you Casey! G/L!

Are we back on the air?

can you please post 1st chapter (teaser) of your book here?

did you ever meet up with the guy at Jamba Juice to sell your blue ball?
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:16 pm
Please post a photo or some sort of other tangible evidence that you are indeed at Lake Tahoe and not West Sacramento.
I don’t think you can. I think your shoddy story creation the last few days proves that much of what’s here is a lie.
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:21 pm
Ok, I have a few questions.
First, I really think you owe everybody who donated money last time an explanation as to what the unexpected expenses that came up were. You know, the ones that you had to blow the cd duplication money on.
Second, is Hammar Investments the corp you bought as your corporate credit thingy? We know that corp is in your name and is located at your local rich dad’s office. Is he a partner with you on this? By the way, are you aware that the corporation status is suspended?
Lastly, is Paul Prestwich your local rich dad? I don’t think he is, but I could be wrong, and it would be nice to get a yes or no on that. Paul Prestwich is the contact for Secure Tomorrow Asset Protection that lists as being located at 3636 Auburn. We know that local rich dad’s son is Dustin, but Paul Prestwich doesn’t appear to have a kid with that name. Anyway a yes or no would be much appreciated.
Thanks for answering the stuff about the foreclosure phone consultation last time.
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:22 pm
I think Casey is indeed at Lake Tahoe.
Now, is it because
#1. You were kicked out of the house yesterday for non-payment of rent? OR
#2. You’re just running away from your problems, and spending your “thinking” time moderating this web site?
Eitther way, it’s all good!
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:29 pm
Hey KC, the poster of post 156 should be baned ! He seems to be a little scammer and an idiot that needs to do two things in the future:
- go to jail
- get a J-O-B
Great things are coming !

May 2nd, 2007 at 6:39 pm
Worth repeating:
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
-Teddy Roosevelt

My dear husband needed a day off. What he didn’t tell you is that emotionally he was down not because I can’t get past that trick 2nd year in over 6 years. Not that he really has nothing more of interest to peddle to his adoring fans other than the hopes of me on a trampoline with a Century 21 jacket.
Casey is depressed because Nigel Swaby stole his Foreclosure Avoiders idea and is taking MY, I mean our money from us.
Rumor has it that Nigel is no longer pushing mortgage paper. Is that true? Is he focusing on the Stuff for Sale in Salt Lake City site? Or is he putting all his meebo efforts into Foreclosure Avoiders??
Photos of my feet to the first person who knows if Nigel is indeed Failing Faster than Casey.

Hey goofball, apparently your corporate advisers are as lazy as you are, as your corporation’s been suspended.
Nice work.

this is plain boring…
May 2nd, 2007 at 6:54 pm
Hi again,
While my failure of a husband is out “brainstorming” I want to revisit the idea of another Dancing Monkeyette Show this weekend.
I told Casey it was stupid to ask people for $10 to get the right to post here. He’s so dumb, the highlights have penetrated his scalp.
I am willing to get onto the trampoline this weekend for $39 for each 10 minute increment. God, what did I marry.

Here’s your chance to answer our
Questions and take off the veil
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:08 pm
I thought by now that someone in the Sacto area would tail your a** all over town, and out of town, to verify what you are talking about, but I suppose that people are too busy (like going to work, etc.) to do something like that.
Somebody has to have one of those devices that you can put on someone’s car so that they can track you wherever you go. I thought someone would have done that by now without your knowledge, but apparently not. I know if I lived in Sacto, I probably would have done it.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:29 pm
Nigel’s Guest Blogger,
I hate to #2 in your cornflakes, but IAFF is currently the top google ranked Foreclosure Avoiders site.
Read it and weep.
Also, please be aware that evildoers are organizing and tomfoolery is afoot at Foreclosure Avoiders Ruined My Life. Would you believe that those hooligans had the gall to question Nigel’s Olympic pin sales skills? As an award-winning and respectful commenter, I am disgusted.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:41 pm
It’s a new paradigm, and everybody who doesn’t buy, now, will be priced out forever. Anybody who does buy will be rewarded with a lifetime of riches, as their property will continue its 30% yearly price increase.
Renters, and anybody born in a future generation, will not be able to afford a $10,000,000 starter home in 15 years. They will live in tent cities, and Hondas.
This asset bubble is different than all of the others - it will never slow down, or pop. The gains are permanent.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:43 pm
@230: Inn Epee Trud… I already addressed the pyramid scheme here: Revisiting Old Mistakes. No reason to keep bringing it up over and over again. I’ll assume you haven’t been on this blog that long so I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.
To the two trolls above… the mindless trolling is getting dumb. You’ve been warned.
@7. big_poppa_pump… I know I know. It’s very anti-climatic to just borrow money to get out of the near-eviction mess. But hey I’m not trying to write a soap opera here. This is real life. Things don’t magically fix themselves. Basically I had to either make some money in like 3 days time or borrow money. I chose the latter. But I’m getting VERY VERY sick of all this borrowing. The jobs I have been doing are obviously not bringing in enough to stay afloat. So that’s what my trip is all about. To get focused and put together an action plan.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:46 pm
Well, I wrote a comment replying to NGB, but forgot to login first. Anyway, Casey any comment on the fact that you are currently the #1 google ranked Foreclosure Avoiders site? That’s got to be a sweet feeling considering that Nigel stabbed you in the back and took your idea.
May 2nd, 2007 at 7:55 pm
Hang in there Casey!
I’m rooting for you!
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:08 pm
What “jobs” do you have Casey? Can you be specific? How much money have you EARNED (not borrowed) in the last 60 days? Last 6 months?
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:09 pm
Casey,
I have been curious about something. Why did you freak out and abandon the blog for almost a week over the comments last time you had instant posting (and I totally agree there were a few out of line posts) yet it was NOTHING compared to the vulgarity of the previous times you have had open moderation. Could you please explain your thought process on what happened there?
Thanks,
Kerriella
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:13 pm
Oh, don’t forget to tell us why you have waited until now to “brainstorm”. What have you been doing for the last 6 months - 1 year? Besides borrowing money and losing multiple houses to foreclosure?
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:14 pm
Three days’ time? You had three months to earn three months rent. And you had two people to do it with. Unfortunately for you, two young able-bodied people combined can’t get $500 together in a month’s time! (Actually, it’s not that you can’t; it’s that you won’t.)
But you’ve been working and making enough to pay rent and bills all along, right? You just don’t tell us and we speculate that you don’t work. So you say. I’d hate to say you weren’t working when of course you were!
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:15 pm
@kerriella #246
Casey was kidnapped by the Modesto pool slime monster. His absence had nothing to do with any “thought process”. Have you forgotten who you are talking too?
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:18 pm
I totally love this guy. I’ve only been hip to this site for about 2 weeks but he has got the world’s biggest balls.
My world is crumbling. I will take some steps towards fixing things. Boy, that’s tiring. I’m going to go and stay with my mistress so I can clear my head.
I hope he’s not suicidal. That wouldn’t be funny.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:19 pm
You’re running out of lies, Case. It’s the same old trolling, over and over. It’s all played out. Why don’t you just come clean and actually tell the truth?
There is no book deal. I work in the publishing industry. Trust me I know. After “A Million Little Pieces”, no one would touch you with a ten foot “Muncy Swamp Pole”.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:19 pm
Casey,
What have you done in the past six months to make anyone believe you aren’t the same scammer from when you were 14? You don’t answer anything honestly, you accuse others of trolling when all you’ve done the past few months is make cryptic posts full of buzz words sure to drive the people who keep repeating “get a job” more crazy in the hopes of somehow monetizing your sweet traffic.
Yet something so basic, you have been unable to do. Again, please to point out the things youve done to disspell the reputation you have as a low-level get-rich-quick artist?
I know you won’t answer it, because I’m not sure you’re able to be honest with yourself.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:23 pm

Casey, please tell us where the begathon money went. You said this:

What were the other needed expenses?

May 2nd, 2007 at 8:52 pm
weird, I just got a message saying that until I “donate” $10 or more I wasn’t getting instant moderation.
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:55 pm
Casey, I’ll ask one serious question:
Why keep this blog up?
While you may have been able to convert the page hits into an income steam at some point, you really haven’t done so yet and there’s limited prospects of doing so in the future. This blog is a tremendous drain on your lone remaining resource (time). Why keep it up and yourself in the public spotlight?
May 2nd, 2007 at 8:57 pm
Casey
We know that you are here. Take a break from the brainstorming session and answer our simple questions.
Brainstorming sessions *usually* involve more than 1 person. Did you take someone to Tahoe with you? A team of people?
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:11 pm
No no teams of people… I guess I used the wrong term.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:13 pm
Casey
Thanks for clarifying that.
Do you have answers for the other simple questions I asked tonight?
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:14 pm
If you want to outsource moderating, you’re probably going to have to be a little more specific about what is or is not “keeping it organic.” Mods are going to need some rules to determine who is breaking the law and who isn’t.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:28 pm
Hey Casey, have you considered letting people line up and kick you in the yarbles for $5.00 per kick? You’d probably make a fortune in no time.
Seriously, I think you should consider this, mate. I think you’d have lots of takers just from your blog alone. Of course your nads would be history, but so would your debt.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:34 pm
Actually Casey, you are wrong.
There is a reason that your pyramid schemes as a teenager, and your spam email guaranteeing 24% returns to all your friends as you were sinking under the weight of your fraudulent schemes should keep being brought up.
Someone has to protect the public.
You are a thief who has committed dozens of felonies. In this very post you mentioned the following:
“I will share needs and provide a way for people to participate. It will be fun and profitable for everyone involved.”
Given your track record, it is obvious that you are getting ready to commit more felonies.
People need to be made aware of what you have been doing to innocent fools.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:38 pm
1. Charge people to post freely.
2. You are now a celebrity. Use it.
3. Charge people to know what you are doing day by day.
4. You are a soap opera that people will pay to see what happens to.
May 2nd, 2007 at 9:45 pm
I think it’s nuts that people keep saying get a job job job job job blob blob blob blah blah shut the hell up. Then the very next poster will say, “I just turned you into the IRS!! Or, “I want you to know that no more than 10 minutes ago I reported you to the authorites Mr. big shot Jamba Juice man!!” Now go get a job!! ROLMFAO!!
One more time for those that don’t already know. Casey+Less than killer job=0.00$
Casey should stay on the path he’s on right now. I wouldn’t get a W-2 in his situation just yet. Be ahrd to file bankruptcy unless he can afford a hell of attorney to keep him from possible charges. Let me say, if I was sure I wouldn’t face charges I would go ahead and file. I’m 99% sure that’s why he hasn’t already. Some do know this and want to see him go down hard and scream job job job job job. Some are sick of the booty lubing they are getting from the “man” day in day out and are ticking time bombs that come here to spew no matter what the current situation is with Casey. Some come here for entertainment and some come that are in similiar situations. Some just love rooting for the underdog. After all, our country started as underdogs. It’s in our blood. Alas, some are just plain stupid and brainwashed.
No W-2. No W-2.

Kid:
“Brainstorming” huh?
You need a functioning “brain” to have a “storm”.
From what I’ve seen, little buckaroo,YOUR brain only functions as a structural filler to keep your skull from collapsing.
You doubt me, hobbit? Here’s an example:
“…and borrowed some money to catchup and pre-pay my rent. So I’m all good till July 1st. ”
So, here’s your S-i-L, who cut you two months’ slack while you were mooching off of her, had to threaten you with a “sidewalk jetta-soning” in order to get you to pay up.
And then you lay 2 grand on her inside of a week.
You think that that’s gonna get you some chops, ace?
IMHO, your play just pissed her off more than she already was.
If you could cough up two grand in a week, then why couldn’t you have paid $500 a month, and save the lady all the stress and anger?
You think Yulia couldn’t have used the extra half-yard a month to treat herself for doing the decent thing for her sis?
Tahoe ain’t the only place to brainstorm, kid…they can do it in Sacramento also,(and prolly a lot better than you can).
And here’s the bit which proves you’re a certifiable doubledummy:
You ran off to Tahoe and left G. back in West Sac to “deal” with the S-i-L.
Chickensh*t, kid, but also VERY stoopid of you.
Because…just what do ye suppose they’re going to be talking about while you’re away “living it up”,(as they’ll see it)?
Oh yeah…taxes, kid…don’t forget them.
And BTW, how much of a tax bite does California take nowadays anyway?

@Failing Forward
Paul Prestwich is NOT the local rich dad. His company Tomorrow Asset Protection is the previous tenant and/or owner of that office building. Local rich dad bought that building not too long ago.
I was going to work out of that office to give me a productive environment and to also watch my Rich Dad’s real estate flipping business and learn They told me I can be a “mentor”.
Things didn’t work out because they didn’t really have any kind of a mentoring program setup for me (it was mostly all talk) and they have been doing almost no deals because they are waiting for RE market to stabilize.
I still network with Dustin and his dad quite a bit and Dustin and I are working loosely on some stuff together.
May 2nd, 2007 at 10:51 pm
Once again, Serin answers the (easy) questions he wants to and dodges the ones he won’t.
- Where did the money go?
- If you have all of these “deals” or “activities” going on, why don’t you have ANY money for rent?
- What happened to the money Nacho sent you to buy food with?
- What proof do you have that you are actually in Lake Tahoe right now?
Serin, I think at this point it’s pretty obvious you’re just a trolling traffic w**** who did get himself into a mindless mess - or criminal enterprise - and who is now trying to cash in with a bunch of made-up nonsense.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:00 pm
casey…..so many middle school kids and highschool kids are laughing at you.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:01 pm
To expedite the approval process you can “bribe” me with a donation of $10 or more via PayPal. Use the DONATE button in the sidebar to pay securely with a credit card. Donations will be used toward building this into a foreclosure help site and help me pay off my debt.
the begging doesnt stop….

oh ya and casey you said you want to use business credit?……you have to have a coproation first…and to do that you have to pay to have one, then have annual payments……you can’t afford that.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:06 pm
you assigned a contract before and made money. why havent you continue to do that? why dont you try to do atleast 5 contracts each month? theres no money down, and you’ll get your deposit back, and you can use G’s check as a deposit….which will never be used….if you can do all the contracts in california….you can get atleast 1,000 for each contract. do 5 a month and thats 5,000 a month.
why dont you do that? you should be calling bank owned, foreclosers, and rehab properties and doing contracts……THIS IS THE BEST TIME TO DO IT SINCE ITS A BUYERS MARKET……
can you answer that please????????????????????????????
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:07 pm
I need to jump on the phone with my publisher for a few hours about the book I’m writing.
Is this to discuss the PRLinkBiz contract? Your publisher does know about that, I hope?
I’ve just signed a contract with a publisher myself, and there are loads of clauses where I have to agree that I own the material outright, and that there are no third parties with any claims to it. I also have to agree to indemnify the publishers against any legal action resulting from the publication of my material.
Assuming you’re dealing with a real publisher as opposed to some vanity outfit, I imagine you have to sign something similar - so what are you going to say? And are you aware of the risks that you’re taking if you lie?
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:55 pm
SO Casey, I see you are in the mood to answer questions (rubbing my hands gleefully):
1) Remember when you did the beg-a-thon? You told us that you needed money for Cashcall because the rent was paid. THEN you told us the rent was NOT paid. Which is it?
You do understand why we “hate” on you right? When you decide to buy Ikea furniture you apparently do not need at this moment versus paying the rent it only reinforces the “hating.”
2) You keep saying you don’t have any money YET you always find some from these supposed loans you keep getting. Are you still robbing Peter to pay Paul (as the saying goes)? Is this money coming from your shell corporation?
3) Some sites have a company that starts with an “H” as your shell corp YET when we check the Cal Business Portal it shows the corp has been suspended. How can you say you have a corp when all evidence points to the contrary?
Answers are nice and will go a looooonnnnnngggggg way towards building trust with this reader.
May 2nd, 2007 at 11:58 pm
One more question…
Are you trolling your readers? It shows a complete disrespect for those of us who try to keep it civil with you.
May 3rd, 2007 at 12:12 am
DONG BABY GET DOWN!
May 3rd, 2007 at 12:24 am
Yeah,
It just doesn’t sound right that you would take off to Tahoe when you were just whimpering about living in a car cause you don’t have any money.
You sound and act like a little biotch!
May 3rd, 2007 at 12:34 am
If you have links to add to the archive, please share them in comments. I think the more places Casey’s history is revealed, the better. This is the first one I know of, which still shows up in Google Group Search: From: “Aleksey Serin” …@softcom.net> Date: 1997/02/08 Subject: $$FAST-N-EASEY CASH$$ NO risk, NOT a scam!!
May 3rd, 2007 at 12:35 am
It’s pretty obvious that most, if not all, of what Casey has written recently is utter fiction.
Serin, if you wish to display some evidence to the contrary, then by all means please do so.
May 3rd, 2007 at 2:11 am
where did you borrow the money to pay your rent, fix your window and stay in tahoe?
May 3rd, 2007 at 3:07 am
@264:
“One more time for those that don’t already know. Casey+Less than killer job=0.00$ ”
That can be generalized to: “Casey+anything=$0.00″. Eight months ago, Serin might have been saved…or even have saved himself, as unlikely as that seems in hindsight. Now, that is no longer possible.
The commentary on bankruptcy has focused on Serin’s filing for bankruptcy voluntarily. Can someone with authentic knowledge speak as to the probabilities and ramifications of his being forced into involuntarily by a creditor or coalition of same?

of Special Agent Cooper. Sometimes when all of the random events culminate into something incredibly far fetched, we might need to throw darts, participate in other random events or simply step back for a moment and contemplate a donut or a duck. While Casey’s Tahoe trip seems to confirm our plankton theories, Stephanie J’s reference to ducks on EN has sent us in many different directions. There must be a connection, but we’re still piecing it together. For those too young or uninterested in David Lynch here’s a Twin Peaks thematic synopsis brought to

Some plugin didn’t work.
Looks like you spent 5 hours working on upgrading your blog. But that didn’t work out. I know average people (i.e. not programmers/web developers) who can set up WordPress, fully customized, in 30 minutes. Dicking around with plugins for 5 hours is hardly productive or worthwhile.

Hi Casey,
I assume that you missed my questions the first time. So:
How much did you borrow?
From whom?
What are the terms of the loan?
How did you negotiate this deal?
Thanks,
THE SILENT NON-HATER MAJORITY

Comments are reeeally dead today. I think your “pay to say” deal may have alienated a lot of people.
May 3rd, 2007 at 6:50 am
Casey, everyone really wants an answer to this question, so just out with it already:
Did you tap your corporate credit to pay the rent? If not, what was the source of your loan?
May 3rd, 2007 at 7:02 am
Looks like this place is mostly about trolling now as information gets sparse and questions remain unanswered……
But hey, I found a GREAT joke that is as good as iamfacingforeclosure.com…..
“What do you call a fly with no wings? A walk.” Sweet!

Caseyism @268 has some good questions. I have some as well.
Casey, what is badness?
UTAH payment—what is going on there?
Balloon payment due.. what about that?
Secretary of State of California shows your corporation is suspended? True? Why?
What is badness? It is that which thou hast often seen. And on the occasion of everything which happens keep this in mind, that it is that which thou hast often seen. Everywhere up and down thou wilt find the same things, with which the old histories are filled, those of the middle ages and those of our own day; with which cities and houses are filled now. There is nothing new: all things are both familiar and short-lived.
How can our principles become dead, unless the impressions (thoughts) which correspond to them are extinguished? But it is in thy power continuously to fan these thoughts into a flame. I can have that opinion about anything, which I ought to have. If I can, why am I disturbed? The things which are external to my mind have no relation at all to my mind.- Let this be the state of thy affects, and thou standest erect. To recover thy life is in thy power. Look at things again as thou didst use to look at them; for in this consists the recovery of thy life.
The idle business of show, plays on the stage, flocks of sheep, herds, exercises with spears, a bone cast to little dogs, a bit of bread into fish-ponds, labourings of ants and burden-carrying, runnings about of frightened little mice, puppets pulled by strings- all alike. It is thy duty then in the midst of such things to show good humour and not a proud air; to understand however that every man is worth just so much as the things are worth about which he busies himself.
In discourse thou must attend to what is said, and in every movement thou must observe what is doing. And in the one thou shouldst see immediately to what end it refers, but in the other watch carefully what is the thing signified.
Is my understanding sufficient for this or not? If it is sufficient, I use it for the work as an instrument given by the universal nature. But if it is not sufficient, then either I retire from the work and give way to him who is able to do it better, unless there be some reason why I ought not to do so; or I do it as well as I can, taking to help me the man who with the aid of my ruling principle can do what is now fit and useful for the general good. For whatsoever either by myself or with another I can do, ought to be directed to this only, to that which is useful and well suited to society.

Did you get your newfound wealth from your Corporation?

May 3rd, 2007 at 7:42 am
In order to shorten everybodys wait, waiting for KC to respond to our questions, I am presenting another high quality iamfacingforeclosure.com joke:
“A termite walks into a barroom and asks, “Is the bar tender here?” Sweet!
May 3rd, 2007 at 7:50 am
I’m hardly convinced about Prestwich. If “Rich Dad” recently bought the building, then why is Secure Tomorrow apparently still there? And wasn’t old man Serin using that address more than just “recently”?
Let’s say Prestwich isn’t connected, anyway. Why the check is Hammar Investments using that building as its official address anyway?
May 3rd, 2007 at 7:57 am
Philip, GC Properties, I’m sure you and Casey can think up some sweet ways to keep tenants deposits.
How much did the Tahoe trip set you back Casey?
Where is the Utah payment?
What’s up with the laptop with the floppy drive? Ancient baby.
Please answer everyone’s questions and I might be inclined to pay the $10.
May 3rd, 2007 at 8:07 am
Walter,
If I’m interpreting things right, 3636 Auburn was Secure Tomorrow and Paul Prestwich in the recent past. Then local rich dad moved into the building (around Sept. 06 or so). The photo with Secure Tomorrow on the sign is from shortly after he moved in. Local rich dad is still based out of the building and Casey had Hammar Investments’ address changed to that location when he bought the corporation. It’s still unclear what the level of local rich dad’s involvement is with Hammar.

my Rich Dad’s real estate flipping business ……. they have been doing almost no deals because they are waiting for RE market to stabilize.
How did I miss this? LOL ! Is he doing something else in the meantime (like working at a job) or is he just running up corporate debts?

May 3rd, 2007 at 9:03 am
You didn’t answer my question.
You ARE gambling with cash from your corporate credit account, aren’t you?

Casey,
When are you coming up to the chalet with the new Porsche? I think you’ve scammed the marks enough today.
See you a little later.

ps. I picked up a the fur coat today, so you don’t have to stop and get it.
……Oh crap!!! Did I post this on your blog…???
May 3rd, 2007 at 9:20 am
This may actually be one of the best posts ever! It is a show about nothing. Let’s all take a vacation.
May 3rd, 2007 at 9:36 am
Hey Casey -
Could you please throw up a pic or two from your Tahoe adventure. Sweet media brings the blog to life, friend.
Rock On!
May 3rd, 2007 at 9:44 am

Hmm. This is the same local Rich Dad who you proudly proclaimed had an uncanny (and apparently unteachable) ability to make money in a falling market?

“If anybody wants to swing by South Lake Tahoe and say hi, be sure to email me directly (don’t use comments so I know you’re not a troll) and we’ll arrange something.”
Exactly how will that work? You’re what - 1000 emails behind?
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:23 am
Casey said: “But I’m getting VERY VERY sick of all this borrowing.”
Apparently not.
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:30 am
A show about nothing, indeed.
Casey, IAFF is getting boring. The instant comments are not helping. If you want “organic” conversation here, you need to participate and you need to be a lot more transparent about answering questions.
Without your participation, this is just a conversation *about* you. And sorry, dude, but we already have that elsewhere, unconstrained by your vague rules about respectfulness and without snitching and censorship.
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:33 am
ASW=Gold.
Casey, if you get into Gold, let me know - it will be at $230 per ounce by the end of the year if some prat like you buys so much as a gram.
People - Casey is going through a phase where he frantically acts out normality the second he gets his hands on some cash, a bit like the ‘Jamba Juice Had’ post. Man, I so nearly choked with laighter at the photo - shades, Jamba Juice, success! Such behaviour is common in such people who have nothing left to ‘loose’.
Going faster and faster round the plug hole he is, at least he is still waving.
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:42 am
lawnmower man has a point about transparency. What ever happened to blogging naked?
I’ve seriously given up the idea that you’ll ever be anything more than a trainwreck, a liar and a scammer. You’ll never give up your delusions of grandeur and you’ll continue to steal whatever you need from anyone and everyone you can in order to support a lifestyle that you have no business living.
I think the least you could do for the people who come here, mainly for entertainment purposes at this point, is answer some questions. You’ve already admitted to committing fraud, so why not answer some of these other questions? Can’t do any more harm, right?
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:45 am
Boring ?? Oh come on…..now that you get some good iamfacingforeclosure.com jokes from me !!
To everybody’s enjoyment here another gem:
“Why are there so many Johnsons in the phone book? They all have phones.” Sweet !
May 3rd, 2007 at 10:55 am
Casey,
Are you writing the book yourself?
If so, please post a teaser chapter of your book here ASAP. I think everybody would appreciate seeing actual results of your actual work.
May 3rd, 2007 at 11:04 am
Oh, and where the hell is the money for a dedicated server coming from? Who’s providing that? Are the Yahoo! ads supposed to be paying for it? Because you know that the same thing that happened with Google will end up happening with Yahoo! People around here hate you enough to do everything possible to prevent you from profiting from this debacle.
May 3rd, 2007 at 11:21 am
Since we’re on roll here with instant comments before you wake up I’ll just ask you this:
You have a loan note due May 22nd. Your spreadsheet shows it as Promissory Note 2 15% $22,000.00 Terms: IO w/ 6 mo baloon due on May 22, 2007 plus fee (included)
Please tell us how much is due May 22 and how you are going to pay it?
May 3rd, 2007 at 11:38 am
I aint paying for squat.
Casey and “G” need to get jobs and quit being scam artists.

May 3rd, 2007 at 12:01 pm
LOL. Casey, Casey, Casey. I ask simple, fair minded questions. I show you some respect and what do I get? Silence.
You wonder why people aren’t running out to hug you and pat you on the back? No they “hate” on you because YOU make it happen. Your reality is caused solely by you not by some imaginary belief that “haters” are destroying your life. YOU fail because YOU choose to do so. None of the haters are making you fail to pay attention to details. None of the haters made you take the toxic Cashcall type loans. None of the haters put your finances where they are today.
So tell me kid, since you hate answering questions, why should we trust anything you say? Funny how you blame your critics (not haters - since you haven’t disclosed what a “hater” is, since the true meaning of the word eludes you, I will start using the word critic) while you are fully to blame for everything.
You can’t hold on to business partners, you act like you have all these big deals (guess what, I have tons of “big” deals waiting but it’s all talk until somebody actually DOES something) yet you run off and take vacations and continue spending money you do not really have.
You can’t make up your mind and that proves to me you are your own HATER. Jealous of everybody who is succeeding and I bet you look in the mirror every morning asking yourself “I am smarter than Donald Trump, why aren’t I as rich?” For all of Trump’s questionable business deals, one thing defines him over you: HE WORKS 80 hours a week running an empire. He built it, working hard to do it and sacrificed marriages to succeed. Look at the most successful people in the world, they all work LONG hours and the jobs become their lives. Sometimes they lose their families all for success.
You on the other hand take long naps, waste loads of time on shiny get rich quick schemes and fall in love with every new age concept that passes before you.
Read the Millionaire Next Door. If you can live like those guys then you deserve wealth. If you can’t, it’s time to grow up and get a job because you lost. This is fact, your personality is pretty much set in it’s ways. Unless you make a dramatic u-turn, success will continue running from you like Wile E Coyote always trying to grab the Road Runner. You see, it’s okay to be a 9-5er. You may find your niche since there is still time for you. Stop chasing quick dollars and wake up.
Sheesh. You won’t answer questions, so I will psychoanalyze you. Guess what? We all have you figured out and as much as you hate that, YOU made it happen.
May 3rd, 2007 at 12:02 pm
Can you describe what type of lifestyle you’ll be living in 3-5 years?
That sounds like the sentence you’ll be getting at your trial.
May 3rd, 2007 at 12:19 pm
Casey wrote: “I was going to work out of that office to give me a productive environment and to also watch my Rich Dad’s real estate flipping business and learn They told me I can be a “mentor”.”
“be a mentor” or “be mentored”? You could benefit from being mentored, if you were willing to listen and act on the advice given. Not that I think you’d ever do that.

left our hero, he was up to his ears in debt and faced the very real possibility of being turfed out onto the street by his own sister-in-law for not paying rent. So he did what any right-thinking man in his situation would do: borrow more money and take a “business trip” to Lake Tahoe
