If Sharon & Shirley can do it, So can you!

Posted October 20, 2011 by Antwain Booth

    I've been thinking about all the people who are taking part in a Healthy Competition game some friends have setup called Little Healthy Competition (LittleHealthyCompetition.com). I was thinking particularly about those who don’t have as much time or aren’t quite in the best of shape, etc. I hope that everyone ...

Wilmington knows how to relax

Posted April 9, 2011 by UL Wilmington

    I first discovered the fun relaxing environment that is Wilmington about 11 years ago on a trip to North Carolina. At that time we didn't stay long but I got the sense that this could be a pretty fun town but seemed to only have a "bar scene". We only stayed for the day so we didn't get much experience of the town.    &nbs...

Raleigh is tops but don't sleep on Durham

    I have lived in Durham since '06 and came into the area a good deal since I moved to NC in '01. I admit that Raleigh is tops in the Triangle area as would be expected.

    As an alum of UNC-Greensboro (class of '06), I've had plenty of experience with the Triad scene when I lived in Greensboro. We went to Winston-Salem some but mostly stayed in Greensboro. At that time a lot of people would go out of town to either Raleigh or Charlotte to get some variety besides the usual options. There were some optio...

Blacksburg-Roanoke-NRV Now Knows How to Have Fun

Posted February 17, 2011 by Roanoke NRV - Blacksburg

    As a native Southwest Virginian who grew up in Pulaski County and started college at Radford University, I am very familiar with how kinda lame nightlife used to be in the Roanoke - Blacksburg - NRV area. Unless you were going to house parties, there really wasn't much for you in the area at that time. After moving to NC in 2001, I ca...

  Real Estate Rehab Hard-Money - What it's about"   by: Antwain Booth I've had a lot of people ask me questions about what a Rehab or Hard Money loan or financing was all about in Real Estate Investing.
