Funny you have Pat Flynn and disc golf in the same episode. Pat is actually part of my “disc golf internet marketing mastermind “group. Seriously….we usually have one big question for the group to solve, and then we try to come up with silutions while playing disc golf.

Rob,
That is funny, when we got Pat on before we started taping, we told him we had just gotten back from disc golfing. He response was ‘yeah, I love disc golf, we have a mastermind group that goes and plays, and I kick Rob’s ass every time we play.’ That last part might be fabricated…maybe…The Ren Men would love to sling some frisbees next time we are in San Diego…as long you guys are up for it…

Kick Rob’s ass!? The only time he kicks my ass is when he is climbing on it
to get a boost so he can get his disk out of a tree! =)

Yea that would be great, fish tacos and disc golf! I’ll give you guys the
big tour of sunny San Diego.

Mahalo,

Rob

We are SO pumped you submitted your “I’m a Ren Menion” video, but it is currently set to private so we can’t view it.

Set renmenshow@renmenshow.com as an authorized viewer of the video or make it public so we can see it. Thanks.

Nice interview. I’m a big Pat Flynn Blog fan. I actually also just interviewed Pat and posted the results on my blog. I’ve added a link to your show at the end of that post here: http://www.innovativepassiveincome.com/pat-flyn

Hah, nice job with the disc golf! I’ve never even heard of that sport. Looks hella fun though. That is cool that you guys interviewed Pat. I’ve just started following his blog recently, and also just found out about you guys through Tim’s blog. Keep up the good stuff!

Dear Ren Men,

I’m a Law School student, working about eighty hours a week, and trying to implement Tim Ferriss’s book while barely sustaining my sanity. The problem is, I cannot seem to find a talent that I can turn into a profitable venture. I know Tim gave a series of suggestions, but they have not yet worked for me. Could you give me some advice? The desire to jump on a motorcycle (I don’t have a licences) and drive across the county at 120mi/hr is slowly becoming overwhelming.

Thank you

You guys are awesome! In a future episode could you detail a little more how you have people locate properties for them to buy, as well as the ways you finance them and what the numbers look like on the properties?
Keep up the good work!

Hey Ren Men,
Excellent show! Many years ago I read Rich Dad/Poor Dad and Tim’s book. I had two properties one I rehabbed myself and the other was built in Florida. Since then I’ve had some tough life problems crop up and find myself working two jobs and missing out on LIFE. I recently picked up the revised 4HWW and then found your site and love it. I plan on watching all the episodes and I am working on figuring out what my MUSE will be.

What I’d like to know is have you considered franchising? I live in Hawaii and the market is more expensive here but I know it’s still possible to buy rentals here. Besides you need to take a “mini vacation” here and then you can establish The Ren Men Outpost in the Pacific and can write off all your trips as a business expense for a bonus!

Take care and Aloha,
Kelly
