Not sure where you're going with this unless this is a reference back to your mysterious pool boy that is going to sink a Fortune 500 company.I keep bringing up S&P500 because most 401Ks will offer something that tracks this.  

He mysteriously disappeared after bidding a job one day.

With GC, what you see is what you get...no mystery.  

This is a mystery to me. 

Plus it is just so easy to go to work five days a week 9-5, but lets be honest with breaks, lunch, talking over the water cooler, texting, leaving just 20 min early ect that 40 hr work week gets necked down to sub 30 real quick. the rest of your time you can enjoy doing what you like, going out on a boat, drinking beer, watching The Voice, reading your mystery novels. 

If it's a buyer who seems cool and just wants to talk turkey in order to get a deal done, I'll sometimes tell them just to get rid of the mystery, especially when I know I have other buyers anyway.  

One of the best things (almost nobody does) is to spend a few hours and mystery shop your competition - pretend you are an interested aplicant and call, ask questions, see if they do open house type showings.

They promise a certain rate and then when you're 3-4 weeks into the process and just about to close, the rate mysteriously jumps. 

You don't want the tenant claiming some kind of mystery ailment from the old oil you allowed the old tenant to leave there, which would also be negligence. :)

Therefore, I completely disagree with you, that any landlord could get away with putting some random charge for attorney fees that never happened - into a lease as a liquidated damages clause that could ever get enforced - even if they did live in some mystery pod where liquidated damages clauses were allowed.
