It sounds like you will take a hit, and are prepared to, but it may not be a complete loss.

The wasted money is the money you put down to avoid something that is not costing you as much as the loss of earning power on the down payment will.

Only then could you claim unlimited deductions for losses.

If needed I could use the equity I built up in a property to cover it, still the loss of an amount equal to gross rents for 3 houses for a entire year is an unpleasant thing to consider.This brings up a final thing I think all investors need .... resiliency. 

I don't know if I would make the same pricing decision if I were the airline, but they own the equipment and service you want to use, so they get to set the prices unless:1)  Enough airline passengers vote with their pocket book and choose to pay a little more for the bundled, (airline + restroom), price because they don't like not knowing exactly what their cost will be, or they have a philosophical problem with being charged for such a fundamental service OR2)  Enough airline passengers complain to their elected representatives and a law is passed saying that the airline cannot charge what it wants for it's services, nor can it segment it's pricing based on usage.Should it not be the airline's choice to risk the potential loss of business using #1 above in the hopes that they will attract more business?  

I honestly dont even think its something that I should do unless there is some type of legal paperwork that could protect me in case of a loss.  

It might be an option to cut your losses sooner rather than later if you don't think you're able to afford the payments.  

It's a business & most business run at a loss before moving into the black.  

Articles of incorporation, operating agreement, allotment of profits and losses, voting rights, when theres only one person?????  

I do understand the other side of, less damage, a quicker turnaround, time loss, ect, however I don't do the cash for keys method.
