Horse Rubber Stamp

101 things to do with a Pound Coin!!

Many people who follow me in property know that I am promoting Rick Otton’s strategies for buying property using no bank financing and none of my own money (except a pound)! I recently bought a house for £1 in London and I thinking back to the mental obstacle that I first had to overcome to do this.

So I set up myself a funny challenge where I have written a list for the current economic crisis, of what you CAN actually do with £1 just to illustrate what is possible if you have an open mind! If you really can’t wait just go straight to number 101… or look at www.1poundhouse.co.uk

I had great fun writing this list and asking people around me for their input. Enjoy It !
