I do as little as possible...

I do flip 914 parts when I am not giving them away.......

I handle Pharma products (legit) bulk or drop ship..

And have a piece of a mining company in mexico....

I also hook people up for high level software programming.

And about twenty other things...

My mantra is... it's all about the kids.

Somehow.... it makes me enough money to make it through each year.. And play with Teeners to my hearts content........

I work for a very cool general contractor. I do a little and alot of everything.
What ever the subs don't or want to do then I take care of it. Or if the job
small or no subs then I do it all. The best thing I like is I do something different
almost everyday.

I'm a slum-lord with a portfolio of student rental properties. I have a property management company look after that for me, so I work about an hour a week at that during the school year.

My father and I manage a private investment fund. It's essentially a computer program that looks after itself, so I spend about an hour a day at that doing research.

I have a four year-old daughter and love being her stay-at-home Dad, so I spend about 160 hours a week doing that (except when she's at school, then I go golfing or work on my car).

Teener bills, teener bills....

Lets see....

Buying my car... Worked as a Mechanical Engineer for a computer company. The designer they gave me was incompetent (bosses friend) and the supposed 50/50 work split went 85% for me, 15% for Bobo. The bosses boss recognized the problem and I got 15% of my pay for each hour of overtime. I managed to accumulate enough overtime money to buy my 914, all new engine parts, and most all rubber. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Don't wanna think how many hours THAT was

Then I worked for a well known medical company and they paid for inventors on patents. Started at $50 per and eventually went to $1000 per with $600 on filing and $400 on issue. Being a very creative sort of guy, I would think up good patentable inventions so we would have something fun to work on, and to finance the teener habit, the go to Alaska habit and one trip back to Spain. ....As one of the top 5 inventors with 19 issued patents and 21 more in the hopper, life was good.

"Lost" my Mechanical Engineering job after 14 years at a medical corporation that has lost their ethics, integrity, and honor. To add to the "fun" the corporate "rules" were rewritten to provide no reimbursement on patents they might have neglected to pay you for before your last day.

I now work for a law firm downtown as a Registered Patent Agent writing patents. A little more money than the engineering gig, but no patent bonuses.

I am the ruthless dictator of a very very small country. Most of my 914 purchases are made with misappropriated tax revenues. Please don't repeat this to my people, as they are already whispering about a military coup. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stan.gif)

I work in IT for a medium-sized private university as the boss of the network and server stuff. Internet, email, security, web servers, wireless ethernet, connecting sites, etc., etc.

I'm also working on getting a small reptile breeding business off the ground. This summer should be my first profitable year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'd point you to my website but it's been "not done yet" for 6 or so months. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

The teener, however, was paid for with stock market profits, a source of income I take very seriously.

Engineering manager for Motorola. Been working in Cellular communications since 1985 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) Can't complain, after 20 yrs with Moto I get to work from home and run a crew of 18 field engineers that install and test cellular networks.

In my spare time I buy dead 914's & sometimes 911's and part them out to help support my 914 & SCCA habits (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
