I'd prefer cash but Cozy does a great service for me and allows me to collect rent from the couch.

I'd suggest not noting things like "stabbed coach with a knife" and instead "7" long cut in left cushion of couch" and "4 sq ft area of carpet under den window coated in an unknown substance that stained the carpet". 

I started off renting out my couch to a friend in my first 1 bedroom.

I second one large room and a very good quality pull out couch.

You're not going to rent your couch out to a stranger living near your kids and completely pay the mortgage in todays market.

The realtor stayed downstairs, sitting on the arm of our couch, while the family (one of which who had a backpack) walked around our house alone. 

They are partying, drinking, playing loud music, burning their BBQ, smoking, and throwing up all over the carpet and couches. 

Although a bank or insurance company would fit nicely into Berkshire’s existing platform, Canada does have restrictions on foreign ownership of those assets – so my bet would be either an energy or utility-oriented opportunity (plenty of them in Alberta) or perhaps a significant stake in Alimentation Couche-Tard, which owns the Circle K brand and has a significant global presence, potentially meshing nicely with Berkshire’s recent purchase of Pilot Flying J.This year, I had the pleasure of travelling to Omaha with some friends from New York University’s Real Estate Development program and got to catch up with old friends from all over the world.Alas, my favorite Buffett-ism from the meeting was "Understand that the market is there to serve you, not instruct you".

They are like finding the missing parts under the couch cushions.
