Eminent Domain has to be "for the public good".

I know that the general guidance is that emergency funds aren't to be invested, but given our financial security and the fact that we already have a personal e-fund in a safe, non-volatile location, would it still be crazy/unwise to invest this 15k in an S&P500 index fund in a brokerage? 

So, I guess I will hope social security pays something in 20 years and the stock market is still there when I grow old.BTW, I am an experienced investor, I know I can dump everything in the stock market but I am hesitant to do that.

This gives you time to save or secure financing while locking in the opportunity to buy.Deferred Payments for Belongings: If the belongings on the property are a sticking point, you could offer to assist with clearing or storing them as part of the deal.

We've secured many tenants who didn't know that we were actually the perfect match for them when they started their search.

I recently moved back to the U.S. after almost two decades working in international development and entrepreneurship across the African continent, from co-founding a tech-enabled logistics company in Ghana to negotiating public-private partnerships for infrastructure investments in Senegal.

@Seidy Lasker Wash sale rules apply to stock options if they are deemed "substantially identical" to a security sold at a loss within 30 days, such as options with similar expiration dates or strike prices.

I guess my problem with being too up front about seeing their place is that I don't feel like I'm in a position of power right now to decline people since it's hard enough to find people that I want to even get to that point in the application process in the first place, but I have to snap out of that mindset and have to instead come from a place where I make them believe that I have a lot of other applicants and that it's my standard policy and it's something they'll have to go through if they want my place.....ESPECIALLY if I decide to only take 1st & security from them rather than 1st/last/security.Thanks again!

A “syndication” is almost always a capital raise for the sale of a security/investment.
