I enjoy my job plenty, but it doesn't hold a candle to my dreams of more time with my future family and freedom to pursue entrepreneurship without working for basic living expenses. 

That stupid idea that you should find what you like to do and make a business out of it doesn't work, if you are a surfer/hippie in the middle of the Vietnam War, getting drafted and watching the counter-culture riots and demonstrations on the streets.

I really don't like Landlords that try to burn their candle on both ends.

I never noticed it while they were there as they always had candles burning.

Your unit is much more likely to catch fire from smoking, cooking, candles, or an electrical short.Exclude smokers.

You could also buy them something small, like a house plant or candle.

I developed my own fairly sophisticated software with MS Access to help me do this because Access does everything people wish Excel could do, but there are some geniuses who have mastered Excel.The last and the very hardest part and you will be able to do what almost no broker can do and even if you find a broker who can do what I am going to tell you, then you are going to find that he is not going to burn his candle every night doing your work for you.The math is simple, but extensive.

The two biggest pain in the butt housemates I ever had were a paralegal who thought she was a lawyer and argued over everything, and a hippy dude who was really fun when sober but not as much fun when he had his peyote cult friends over and they busted out the bongos around the bonfire, driving everyone in the neighborhood crazy.

You bought this for an investment and you need to run it like an investment, not a feel-good hippy commune where everyone's happy.

Focus just on the candles, specifically the ones surrounding your property.
