Default How do you pay the mortgage???

Posted By: Martin Neal

I pay my mortgage any way I can. I Am a Class A builder and hold a real estate license in the state of Virginia. I try to build at least one house a year and list and sell a few homes a year ( mostly friends ) I just got my Certificate of Occupancy on one today!!! Now I can buy a few cards! I also end up doing a ton of tear off roofing jobs ( all the realtors know they can call me when they have a listing that needs a new roof.) I also used to be a commercial fisherman out of Wanchese, North Carolina. Did a lot of long netting but also a lot of shrimping and scalloping. I used to own a restaurant and two video stores. I would love to play poker for a living, I sort of did that back in the early seventies playing at the fish house in Colington , North Carolina.
My collecting is a little like my life, all over the place. I do try to concentrate on t206s and t205s (both sets on the registry) Jay, I look at the registry sort of how I look at golf, I am there only to compete with myself. I have one psa graded 8 T206 and I love it. It really is a beautiful thing. Hey, I love my beaters just as well, I am 20 short of finishing the set. Did I just say that!. I will never finish that set.
Hey Air Force guys, do any of you know Beau Neal ( my Nephew). He just got transferred to Hawaii. He used to fly C-17s in Germany. I think he Trains other pilots now.
