Spoon and Cherry Monument in Minneapolis

Posted on February 20, 2019 by Yuri Grin

This giant spoon and cherry was erected in 1985 by artist Claes Oldenburg and his wife, Coosje van Bruggen and is the centerpiece of the Walker Art Center’s Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, the largest urban sculpture park in the world. Oldenburg was an artist who was known for making oversized versions of everyday objects and food products. Together with his wife he set up a number of public sculptures, including Chicago’s Batcolumn sculpture. The spoon was Oldenburg’s idea, who had a habit of doodling spoons ever since 1962 when he was inspired by a spoon resting on a piece of fake chocolate. The cherry in the piece was van Bruggen’s idea, wanting to use it as a comment on the garden’s otherwise staid layout. (more info on this website about Minneapolis)

The spoon itself weighs 5,800 pounds and the cherry, another 1,200 pounds. The cherry’s stem also acts as a fountain which sprays into the bowl of the spoon and off into the pond beneath. Even the pond itself has meaning, being shaped to resemble a linden seed, drawing attention to the rows of linden trees planted nearby.

The city of Minneapolis seems to have largely embraced the massive sculpture, expressing almost universal outrage when Spoonbridge and Cherry was vandalized in 2012 as part of a “Kony 2012” protest. The artwork was cleaned up and still remains as a somewhat goofy, definitely unforgettable icon of the Minnesota city.

How To Make Monthly Rental Income with Airbnb

Posted on June 29, 2018 by Yuri Grin

How To Make $30,000/Mo In Rental Income, Without Owning Any Real Estate…

Hey reader of my blog I have another interesting post for you that can give you one more idea of what is possible online. (don’t forget to check also my offer for you at the end of this post).

Continue reading … (this is story by Mike Dillard “Self-Made Man” about Brian Page experience)

* * *

<< I’m writing you from our AirBnB home in Aspen Colorado…

A few friends and I flew into town this week to check out the annual Food and Wine festival.

Aspen is always an incredibly inspiring place to visit… It’s very difficult to find a smaller town, with a higher concentration of wealth or successful people, than this little village…

While the event was great, the majority of our conversations ended up being around real estate…

The average price for a home or condo in downtown Aspen is around $2,000 to $3,000 per square foot… So a modest 2,000 square foot condo would cost around $4-6 million! Not cheap.

We rented a two bedroom condo with a great view, for $800 per night.

If the owner is able to rent out the unit 25 nights per month, they’re making around $20,000 per month in passive income.

Not bad… Especially if you had 3-4 more of them…

But buying up a portfolio of real estate properties to rent out just isn’t feasible for most people.

Well that’s why last week’s podcast episode with Brian Page blew me and my friends away…

Brian has created a strategy that can allow anyone to build a massive 6 or 7 figure income stream through AirBnB, without the need to own a single property.

My business partner Robert and I are currently using Brian’s method to acquire control of rental properties all over Aspen and Snowmass.

Within a year, we should have a passive income stream of $50,000 to $100,000 per month, without putting any money down, or taking ownership of a single home.

The entire maintenance and booking process is completely automated, so your portfolio can be managed from a cell phone.

No cleaning toilets, late night phone calls, or re-stocking the properties.

All of that is done for you.

As I mentioned last week, this is the single best opportunity to build passive income, and real wealth that I’ve seen in years because it’s so accessible.

You could be 23 years old, or 65… Rich, or dead broke…

If you’re willing to follow some simple instructions and put in a little elbow grease to get the ball rolling, you could be 12-24 months away from a 7 figure passive income stream.

If you want to learn Brian’s strategy step-by-step, you can check out the webinar he’s holding this week.

I’m confident that what you learn will completely change the way you look at real estate and building wealth, just as it did for me.

One thing that I am using that is bringing me results and builds my email list is Funnel-X Project.

This funnel is set up to help me earn from four different income streams at one time. It builds your list first then has video directions in it to help people to set it up. It also makes sales for you with a video sales presentation built in. This system is currently making sales for me daily. You have nothing to lose give it a try today. The funnel itself is worth $999.00 Get the Funnel for Free Today!!!

How to get to the downtown of Budapest City from Liszt Ferenc International Airport (BUD)

Posted on June 12, 2018 by Yuri Grin

Liszt Ferenc International Airport (BUD)

Budapest Airport, T2

Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport (BUD), formerly known as Budapest Ferihegy International Airport, is about 10 miles from the city center. Many major European and North American airlines either fly directly to Budapest or offer connections

Your plane to Budapest Airport will arrive into terminals 2A or 2B in adjacent buildings. Terminal 1 is now closed.
Immediately after customs in either Terminal 2A or 2B, a booth in Arrivals offers “Information and tickets” from Budapest’s BKK public-transportation network. Here you can buy all types of tickets and passes – see below for more details.

The booth also serves as an outlet for purchasing the Budapest Card, providing unlimited use of city transport along with admission to museums and a thermal bath, free tours, and various discounts. If you are only traveling to your hotel and do not plan to go out much afterwards, it’s best to wait to take full advantage of the 24-, 48-, or 72-hour time limit that begins with its first use. You’ll also find an ATM inside the terminal.

Exiting terminal 2, you see a line of people waiting by the taxi kiosk. Taxis are run by the cartel of Főtaxi and other ones cannot be used. See below Taxi Service.

Just beyond the taxi booth, a crowd will be milling around a bus stop and another ticket machine next to it. The machine, with an English-language option, accepts cash (in Hungarian forints) and credit cards, and gives change.

The two buses here require different tickets. Swifter but less frequent bus 100E requires a 900-forint (3-euro) ticket – look out for the airplane logo on the machine.

This runs every 30 minutes directly into town, calling at Kálvin tér, Astoria and Deák tér, all close to each other in the city center. The last bus sets off at 12:30am and the driver usually waits for stragglers. Allow about 30-40 minutes’ journey time into town at night, nearer to an hour during the day.

The other bus stop is for the 200E, running every seven minutes but only as far as the nearest metro stop of Kőbánya-Kispest and, after 11pm, to the next stop into town, Határ út. Journey time is 20-25 minutes but the stations that the 200E runs to are on the blue M3 metro line, currently under long-term repair. A replacement bus service now operates, making the whole journey into town much longer than its previous 45 minutes. The 200E bus requires a standard BKK transport ticket (350 HUF or 3000 HUF for a book of ten), followed by another one for the onward journey from metro station to town.

For both the 100E and 200E buses, you enter by the front door only and show the driver your ticket before punching it into the little yellow box on board.

The alternative is to take the 200E bus as far as the Ferihegy rail station opposite old Terminal 1, about halfway to Kőbánya-Kispest, then jump on a regular train to Nyugati Station in town, a journey of 20 minutes. There is a ticket machine on the station platform. A standard one-way ticket is 370 HUF but some services are InterCity ones and require a supplement. The ticket machine allows you to specify which train you intend to take. Using the train might make more sense on your journey back to the airport, when you can pick up the 200E about ten minutes to the airport. Again, specify which train you intend to travel with.

If you’re traveling to the airport from town early in the morning, the first 100E bus leaves Deák tér at 4am, calling at Astoria and Kálvin tér shortly afterwards. A line forms around each bus stop, patrolled by BKK inspectors who also check that you’re holding the 900-forint airplane-logo’d ticket and not the standard 350-forint one. You should arrive at the airport by 5am, probably even 4:45am.

Airport Shuttles

Providing door-to-door transfer services, the shuttle service is one of the most popular ways to travel from Budapest Airport to anywhere in Hungary’s capital. Transfers can be booked with miniBUD. With an extensive fleet of modern minibuses offering shared rides, the staff amasses several passengers that are traveling to the same area of the city and then drops them off in the most convenient order possible. Because of this, it can actually take longer to reach a destination with this service than it takes to use public transportation, but the convenience of not having to handle luggage on the bus and metro can be well worth the extra expense and time. Check out the official miniBUD website for fare information and details.

From 2017, Luxembourg-based company flibco.com has been offering direct bus-transfer services between downtown Budapest and the airport with a departure frequency of every 30 minutes round the clock. The bus stops at several transport hubs citywide, including at Deák Square, at Népliget Bus Station, and at Nyugati, Keleti, and Déli railway stations; a one-way trip costs 9 euros per person.

Taxi Service

The fastest and most direct way of getting from Budapest Airport to downtown is definitely by taxi, with services provided by taxi stands in front of both Terminal 2A and 2B that are staffed by English-speaking attendants. Only one company is currently authorized to provide unreserved taxi service with curbside pick-up at Budapest Airport: Főtaxi, which guarantees regulated rates with prepaid vouchers available at the taxi stands. To reach most central-Budapest hotels, Főtaxi charges approximately 7,000 forints (about 22 euros). Log onto www.fotaxi.hu for complete information and a tariff calculator.

Other taxi companies operate at Budapest Airport, with plenty of dodgy individuals awaiting fresh visitors in the arrivals area with grunted offers of taxi service, but utilizing their services invites unpredictable outcomes for your pocketbook.

Check out the official airport website for more information about transportation to and from Budapest Airport.
