Don't be the person that you can see taking a cell phone photo in the bathroom mirror :) Most importantly, reply quickly when people reach out with interest.

For example do you have a US based credit card, any type of USA loans you are paying, like car note, cell phone bills, electric bills?

They have no car, little to no furniture, a cell phone that is sometimes on and sometimes off.

I think many of us use hyper-consumerism as a means of validating our self-worth.We NEED to upgrade to a new cell phone every year, we NEED to take expensive vacations to show our friends how fun our lives are, we NEED to purchase the more expensive car, we NEED to eat at chic restaurants and document the experience all over our social media.

Either begin by paying your cell phone bill or having your parents put you as an approved person on one of their credit cards if they have good credit.

Grocery stores would be empty within 48 hours unable to order from their JIT supply, credit cards not working, not sure if we could maintain the electric grid, cell phone system gone - who still has a landline?

Not saying all but a big percentage.50 to 60 year olds might have a cell phone and be on the computer30 to 40 year old familiar with zoom meetings, texting, cell phone, computerskids to 20 year olds embracing group text, videos, all emerging technology etc.Of course this is not an absolute but in general as the age goes up the use of technology goes down.I could retire today if I wanted to and live off of the money the rest of my life. 48 years old now.Any industry out there has a certain golden age run up where those get in with the right timing and determination can do something magical.

They can send you videos or photos on turnover bnb or your cell phone when the property is complete to show they are done and checked everything off the list.
