This story is about a Greek boy who lives on a small island and befriends a giant sea monster. The village where the boy lives is famous for making ice cream out of the seaweed they harvest from the sea around their island. When the boy becomes friends with the giant sea monster by sharing his ice cream with him, the chaos begins. The sea monster enjoys the ice cream so much that he tramples into the village to seek out more of it. This scares the villagers living peacefully in the village and prompts them to protect their property from the beast that accidentally destroys it. When the boy catches wind of the plot to protect the village from the sea monster, he becomes concerned. The leader of the village askes the boy if he can help create a plan of attack to ensure the safety of all involved, especially his new sea-monster friend. He designs a plan that makes both the village safe and the giant beast very happy. A friendly relationship between the entire village evolves, and the sea monster becomes an integral part in the harvesting of the seaweed for the villagers to continue making their famous ice cream for all to enjoy, especially their new friend, the sea monster.

Over the last 25 plus years Darin Garman has seen a lot when it comes to investing. Darin has not only documented for investors unconventional yet profitable ways to earn significant returns and income from their investments but through his investment companies provided investors front row access to these investments. As a former bank owner and board of director member as well as a manager of over $40,000,000 in investment real estate properties and partnerships Darin, or as some call him "The Paranoid Banker" has seen about every type or kind of investment a person can participate in. From conventional investments in the financial markets to exotic investments Darin still comes back to one of the best wealth builders and diversification plays for those investors 50+ years old: Apartment Communities As the U.S. economy, global financial markets and political landscapes continue to be unpredictable roller coaster rides investors are finding conventional investing emotionally and financially draining. Many conventional Wall Street investments continue to be influenced by national and global events that in many cases have nothing to do with the investment frustrating investors even more. Coupled with the fact that there will be unprecedented growth and demand in the coming years not only by people to rent apartments but also investors that will want to own these communities, it makes sense for intelligent investors to take advantage of the current and growing trends. Over the years Darin has believed that apartment community ownership is one of the last investment refuges for investors seeking a more predictable return, income and investment. RENTER NATION not only describes for you how the coming years will see more growth and demand for apartment community renting and ownership than has been seen historically but also what investors in search of larger returns and income over the coming years can do to obtain for themselves what could be unprecedented income and wealth. RENTER NATION provides investors simple to understand information on how to use the current and future growth in cash flow and appreciation from apartment communities to fund their income, wealth and even retirement goals.

What should have been simple surveillance goes off the rails when Dwayne stumbles across the latest victim of a maniac who is terrorizing Central Ohio. As the media spotlight shifts toward Dwayne, so does the killer's unwanted attention. The murderer is closing in, and for Dwayne, uncovering the truth is a matter of survival.
