Question from Anne in Alaska: Hi Dirk, since you claim to be a spiritual guide maybe you can explain how come the law of attraction doesn’t seem to be working for me. I read “The Secret” and thought I understood what it was saying but I’m still broke and it doesn’t seem to work for [...]

Hey Dirk, I bought my first storage unit at auction last week. There was some decent stuff, furniture, appliances, a sweet tv, some video games and dvd’s. The reason I’m writing is I found an old painting but I can’t find anything about it because it’s not signed. Any ideas on how I can figure [...]

Question from Benjamin in Atlanta: Dirk, I found you from your friend Jared Moore’s site workinsandals.com. I like the idea of buying a storage unit auction and I’ve seen that there are several around Atlanta. I lost my job, my house is being foreclosed and I can’t rub two nickels together right now. How can [...]

Question from Robert in Washington “You say that the third step to financial freedom is quitting your job. This seems like financial suicide right now. The last thing you should advise anyone to do in this crappy economy is quit their job. You’re just a third rate hack with bad advice.” Answer: Robert, I’m deducting [...]

QUESTION: Hey Dirk, I was looking at your book on Amazon and love the idea of making some money at garage sales but a neighbor told me that we’re only allowed by law to have two garage sales per year. Even if I had the two best garage sales ever, I don’t see how it’s [...]

The first question comes from Mary F., Chicago, Ill. Dear Dirk, I’m quite upset with you. My husband bought your book and purchased two storage unit auctions, against my better judgment. Now, we have a house full of stuff and although he’s sold some of it, I can’t stand my house looking like a junk [...]
