When negotiating in person with a motivated seller, one tactic that works almost every time is simple: ask the seller what their lowest price is. They'll usually tell you a number, but this is never their real lowest price--this is their starting price! Then, ask them a follow up question like "Okay, but what if I could pay all cash and close next week?" They will almost always go a little lower. If you wanted to push it one more time, you could say something like "So, if I were to offer you $X and get you the cash you need in the next ten days, that would be unreasonable?" No one likes to appear unreasonable, and there is a good chance they'll respond with "Yeah, I could do that." [2015] - Brandon Turner

The next time you go to the beach, consider drinking a shot of tomato, watermelon, pink grapefruit, or guava juice before heading out. It will protect you against sun damage. The red-orange color of these fruits comes from lycopene, which, among other benefits you’ve seen in earlier chapters, protects DNA from the ionizing radiation damage from the sun. Also think about having a shot of tomato or watermelon juice before going to the dentist, who may take an X-ray of your teeth, or before getting on an airplane, where a dose of radiation during the flight will be unavoidable. Lycopene is also protective against DNA damage caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. [2019] - William W Li
