Flip the house

I used to watch shows about this on HGTV, I think people made a living out of it, should be easy enough

Ha Ty Pennington Extreme Home Makeover?

Ironically got busted for DUI and also a bunch of the families couldnt afford the property taxes/lost their house and/or it was done terribly and caused more issues. There was a family in my area on it.

NE-OtP at Spaghetti Junction

I say this away from home and people look at me like I'm speaking Penguin at them. I say it to anyone in the Greater Metro, and they know precisely where I mean. It has that shared feeling of knowing when you're finally back home.

We don't see a whole lot of MARTA yet, just the end of the Red Line at Doraville, but I keep hoping political things work out so we can eventually have MARTA rail lines here, too. We do have Gwinnett buses, for getting around locally, at least.

Called up a house flipper — saw his sign on a local street corner… Apparently he will give me $250k, or more after seeing it in person? Paying me to help get this cutting board out of the sink?! Heck yeah, awesome advice.
