Perhaps it was a coincidence, perhaps it was part of a mysterious master plan. Perhaps everyone you meet in life, you meet for a reason. You learn something from that person, and sometimes the lesson is quite stark. Here\u2019s an example of what I mean:<\/p>\n<p>I was 13 years old, trying to convince my 8-year-old brother to skateboard down a small hill. It was taking quite a while as my brother was really nervous about it.<\/p>\n<p>We were at a big, public park, and nearby there was an old woman who looked about 75 years old. She was sitting on a bench watching us. \u00a0My brother was practically crying and I was embarrassed that he was being such a wimp.<\/p>\n<p>He kept saying, &#8220;I might crash. I&#8217;m afraid!&#8221; \u00a0I was really putting the pressure on when the old woman got up and walked over to us. I thought she was going to tell me to lay off.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, she raised her fist defiantly at my brother and said, &#8220;So be afraid! And then do it anyway!&#8221; He swallowed and took off. He did fine.<\/p>\n<p>I have never forgotten that moment. It was a revelation that it&#8217;s not about being unafraid. It&#8217;s about being afraid and doing it anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Can you remember a moment like this, when your perspective changed all at once because of something someone said to you? \u00a0I can tell you that your perspective will change when you become a homeowner, too. \u00a0Buy don&#8217;t rent. \u00a0Experience the pride of ownership in a home.<\/p>\n<h2>Buy Don&#8217;t Rent<\/h2>\n<p>Sometimes first time buyers are afraid to buy a house. \u00a0I experience it all the time. \u00a0But you know what? \u00a0It&#8217;s better to buy and own than to rent and give your money to someone else. \u00a0Pay yourself first. \u00a0Buy don&#8217;t rent.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Why Work with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stcloans.com\/LoanOfficers.php\">Mario Quintero<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>Whether you want to buy for the first time, refinance your existing loan or even purchase an investment property, TODAY is your moment.
