Trucker, blogger, imaginary entrepreneur, and seeker of absolute truths... with a bad case of the Rambling Fever. I'm rambling around and rambling on about...

[Matt Stelter @Matt76Allen]

Our HOA had apparently been dissolved for more than a decade.

We only discovered it after a dispute over concrete next to my garage.

Looked up our HOA in state records and saw this:

“Dissolved - Operation of Law”

Which was surprising... because the HOA had apparently still been operating for years.

The weirdest part about discovering our HOA didn’t legally exist wasn’t the HOA itself.

It was realizing how much ordinary people can uncover once information becomes easier to access and understand.

I’m a truck driver... not a lawyer. #AI #HOA

A few months ago, I got into a debate with my HOA over concrete.

Which honestly feels like the most HOA sentence ever written.

A few weeks later, I discovered our HOA had apparently been dissolved with the State of Michigan for more than a decade. #HOA

We planned a smooth road trip from Michigan to Alabama.

Somewhere in downtown Birmingham, my son jumped out of the car at a red light and ran into a patch of bushes.

Still made it to the beach. 😂

I’ve been a truck driver for 20+ years… and an “imaginary entrepreneur” for about 15.

That second part = a lot of failed “make money online” ideas… and one that finally worked.

Travel volleyball weekend in St. Louis turned into:

• March Madness everywhere
• Random Mizzou pep rally
• Smoky casino session
• Best calzone I’ve ever had

Didn’t see that coming.

Casinos are fascinating.

Hundreds of people playing machines designed to slowly take their money.

And every single person believes the next spin is the one.

I might have been one of them for about 20 minutes.

I went to the casino looking for “advantage” slot machines I’d been studying.

Walked the entire casino floor.

Didn’t find a single one.

Then I accidentally won money playing blackjack.

Funny how that works.

For most of my life I believed one rule about casinos:

The house always wins.

So naturally I drove to a casino with my brother-in-law to test that theory.

This went about as intelligently as you'd expect.

Most middle-class millionaires didn’t get there through genius investing.

They built boring systems… and left them alone for decades.

For me, it was automatic 401K contributions every payday.

Consistency beats genius.

Short drives in January snowstorms have a weird way of turning into stories you didn’t plan on telling.

Sometimes dinner is just dinner.

Sometimes it’s twelve chili dogs and public suffering.

Watching confident teenagers order all twelve chili dogs at once is like watching someone say “I got this” right before the laws of physics intervene.

Trump, Credit Cards, and the 10% Interest Rate Idea

I designed a business card on Canva. Then I ordered the prints directly on Canva! Which I didn't even know was an option. I chose the free shipping option (7 to 14 days) and received the cards in only 5 days!

Being a middle-class millionaire looks less like champagne and yachts... and more like mowing your own lawn while arguing over who drained the hot water.

Being a middle-class millionaire doesn’t look like Instagram. It looks like mowing your own lawn, drinking gas station coffee, and finally sleeping well at night.

You can hit millionaire status and still feel broke. Ask me how I know.

Selling it wiped out every debt except the mortgage. That’s when life actually changed. Not the millionaire milestone. The debt-free one.
