In my neighborhood we had a problem with gangbangers hanging outside 'the pink store' here and it became a really dangerous corner. 

Far enough away to avoid your grandmother’s nagging about your pink hair, but not too far to visit and still get a piece of that famous pumpkin pie she makes every year :-)Boomers Add To The BoomWhat’s more, Baby Boomers make up a significant percentage of new Arizona homeowners.

Index funds...took a week or two to learn a proper allocation and takes a little time each year to reallocate and tax loss harvest, if applicable.Done correctly, there are no passive investments in real estate...there are just some that are less active than others...or they are very active in the building years and then can be systematized.I only spend a couple of hours per month on my active investments now...doing bookkeeping but I spent substantial time in acquiring and rehabbing them and getting the right management solution in place. 

While these auto-robo advisers only stick to stock market offering, they complement their package with a lot of other valuable options such as tax loss harvesting and auto-re-balancing.Happy to share my equity investing via syndications experience with you and others.

I just did this in one of our rental bathrooms where wallpaper had been painted over a bright pink by a former tenant.Buy some inexpensive liquid fabric softener at the dollar store...along with a spray bottle.   

You can't sell it because you don't own it and don't have the pink slip.

That's why we want to use a camera.So the man is heavily sedated, the camera is inserted and rotated and snaps a whole portfolio of shots.The pics showed completely clear, pink, healthy lungs.That man was my father - who eventually died decades later - from a brain hemorrhage when he was over 90.stephen------------Originally posted by @Kenneth B.: Those are great stories Stephen.

Pink Mary Kay Caddy's are less my style :-)Yes @Jon Klaus  a good market. 

They didn't want to be the wilderbeast that kicked her to the curb, so they sold to you, harvested the windfall (I'm guessing they didn't give you the "little old lady" discount on the sales price) and left you figuring out whether to accept half the market rate or make her homeless. 

I once heard a pastor preach about the fact that the scarecrow is placed where the harvest is located, and only the old or more experienced crows know that they are to look for the scarecrow and head TOWARDS it and not away from it to get their dinner.A lot of very successful people use their fear as a fuel (the same way they use a refusal, a rejection or a failure like a vitamin).
