Review
"At last someone uncovers the wacky world in which we reside. There are three views of the world of lending: the lender's view, the customer's view, and Gordon Schlicke's view. Thanks for making a stressful world more enjoyable." --
Dave Hershman, The Hershman Group"Gordon's book is fabulous. The ability to laugh at ourselves is the measure of mental health. What a great stress reliever." --
Jack Davis, Davis and Associates"There are two traits those in the mortgage profession must have to survive the rigors of the industry--a sense of humor and a sense of perspective. Gordy Schlicke's book is a direct hit on both counts. His sword of sarcasm and wit is wielded across the entire industry and very few remain unscathed. At a time when many people within the industry need to lighten up, this publication is perfectly timed." --
