The Casino was packed but not many people shopping around the town or at the beach.

It can also be safer to diversify your investment properties across the country.

We did that for years up until HMB and other 'broadband brokers' closed shop for the unified HUD systems.

And if you open your own shop, there are hours in the chair required to be open to the public so basically, it's a terrible idea.

Thanks This is your time to cross shop that quote - hit up @Raymond J.

I still self-manage because mine are in my back yard, but I have shopped around a bit.A common mark-up for scheduling and over-seeing the work is 10%.  

After that, everything goes to charity and we close up shop.

Since the White Coat Investor analysis I posted earlier seem to be debated by others yet to post counter-point sources I'll share another source that I found while researching WLI a few years back, Consumer Reports. https://www.consumerreports.or...In this analysis from one of the most independently-funded, unbiased consumer advocacy groups in America the outcome was the following: < 5 years: poor investment (versus term)16 years: you break even on cash surrender value + value of insurance received+20 years: dividends exceed term + treasuries alternative, surrender charges disappear In sum CR concludes: This mixed bag of potential benefits and costs is complicated enough for consumers to navigate, but poor disclosure robs consumers of the information they need to comparison shop.

He would be safer in a savings account at that rate (I know what you're thinking... appreciation, though).
