Good morning! Make it a great day!

Someone asked the richest man in the world, Bill Gates, “ Is there anyone richer than you in the world ?”

Bill Gates replied, “ Yes, there is a person who is richer than me.”

He then narrated a story.

“It’s during the time when I wasn't rich or famous.

I was at the New York Airport when I saw a newspaper vendor.

I wanted to buy one newspaper but found that I don't have enough of change. So I left the idea of buying and returned it to the vendor.

I told him of not having the change. The vendor said, “ I am giving you this for free.” On his insistence I took the newspaper.

Coincidentally, after 2–3months, I landed at the same airport and again I was in short of change for a newspaper. The vendor offered me the newspaper again. I refused and said that I can't take it for I don't have a change today too. He said, “ You can take it, I am sharing this from my profit, I won't be at loss.” I took the newspaper.

After 19 years I became famous and known by people. Suddenly I remembered that vendor. I began searching for him and after about 1½ month of searching I found him.

I asked him, “ Do you know me?” He said, “ Yes, you are Bill Gates.”

I asked him again, “ Do you remember once you gave me newspaper for free?”

The vendor said, “ Yes, I remember. I gave you twice.”

I said, “ I want to repay the help you had offered me that time. Whatever you want in your life,tell me, I shall fulfill it.”

The vendor said, “ Sir, don't you think that by doing so you won't be able to match my help?”

I asked, “ Why?”

He said, “ I had helped you when I was a poor newspaper vendor and you are trying to help me now, when you have become the richest man in the world. How can your help match mine ?”

That day I realised that the newspaper vendor is richer than me because he didn't wait to become rich to help someone.”

People need to understand that the truly rich are those who possess a rich heart rather than lots of money.

Its really very important to have a rich heart to help others.

Happy Monday!!

Attention For Sale By Owners! We get it, you don't want to give up 6 or 7% of your home when you can attempt to sell it yourself and save thousands of dollars paying a real estate agent.

What if we told you that 1) the commission is always negotiable and 2) we can save you up to 2% in agent commission AND STILL get the same service provided from a 6 or 7% agent? It just makes sense to save you money and we still get your business because we want you, our client, to tell all your family and friends of how awesome of a job we did selling your home while saving you money!! Crazy right?!! DM me or call/message me at 224-944-1505 for a consultation if you are seriously thinking of selling your home. Make it a great day! 🤓👍

Give us a call or message us today with any questions you may have regarding the home buying process and see why BUYING has better benefits than RENTING. Make it a great day!!

Happy Tuesday everyone! Not only did we have a 3 day weekend, BUT it's a short work week! What goals do you have planned out for this week?

It is not too late to place your home on the market if you are thinking of selling; it's no rumor now that a recession is coming, lucky for us it won't be like 2008's mess. If you have had thoughts of selling here's a little bit of information on the process, feel free to message or call me for a consultation to see if you are in a position to sell, who knows, maybe you'd want to rent out your home and look to upgrade with rates being dropped you can become an investor!! I'm telling you right now, once you get your first investment under your belt you'll want to 1) do it more often and 2) think why haven't I done this sooner? Our nationally recognized broker and team is ready to assist you in this process! Make it a great week!!
