I'm not eating at my desk today. Neither should you.
It's National Take Back the Lunch Break Day and I took mine at the FIFA World Cup. Lumen Field. Seattle. 60,000 people from every corner of the planet, all standing under the same Washington sky where, in 1947, a pilot saw something nobody believed.
The people who see something before everyone else always look a little crazy at first.
REO deals are the underdogs of real estate. Everyone's already counted them out before the match starts. The investor who shows up anyway, sees what the deal could be, and does the work nobody else wanted, that's who wins when the final whistle blows.
The best deals don't announce themselves. They sit there, distressed and overlooked, waiting for someone who knows what they're looking at.
Today I'm cheering for Qatar. Underdog energy.
Also, Bosnia's aerial game is exactly what US teams struggle to defend and I'm not ready for that.
Still eating at your desk? Get out there and take back your break! Where are you going? (Happy World UFO Day!)
