About where Carleton Sheets grew up

I found an interesting article today, discussing where Carleton sheets grew up:
Carleton H. Sheets (often misspelled as Carlton Sheets or Carlton Sheet) was born in a small town in Illinois, where he and his younger brother were raised by conservative parents. When Carleton was 10, his father was transferred and the family relocated to Ohio. Near the end of his first summer in Ohio, Carleton decided he wanted to make extra money by mowing lawns. He asked his mother to loan him the money to buy a mower and he repaid her in installments after mowing a few lawns. Purchasing the mower with no money down became his first “no down payment” venture. He did so well mowing lawns that he asked for another loan to buy a bicycle so he could deliver newspapers—his second “no down payment” transaction.
Like many, Carleton came from humble origins. From the beginning Carleton was an entpreneur. Even at an early age, he showed his entpreneurship when he mowed lawns and basically took out an installment loan to get his mower. That was his first (of many) no money down deals.
Carleton Sheets is an expert real estate investor and the author of the No Down Payment System. Of course, Carleton is an avid real estate investor. However, he is also passionate about teaching others about how to build their real estate investment empire.
