I'm visiting with family this weekend, so do not have a lot of time to go find them all, but will try to pull the information together into a blog post in the next 2-3 weeks.One additional consideration which has arisen in the past 3-4 months is the shift in the relationship between the CAD and USD - I sold USD at 1/1.2245 last week and the currency jockeys are indicating we could see 1/1.18 before the end of May.

Thus deflationary cycle via currency concentration.

I have been studying and trading Forex, Stocks (stocks not so much) and Crypto currencies (just recently started Nov. 2017) part time since I was 18 years old so have a clear understanding of value and how it fluctuates based on a number of variables, and think i have an amazing leverage over the average noob.

My wife enjoys decorating the house for the seasons.She listens to me talk about commercial real estate investments and development and is interested but likes doing her own stuff.There are teams out there that both love real estate and other partners who find joy and currency in many other different things.I celebrate the differences as it is another unique angle in life to experience and enjoy.The big question is if your girlfriend is okay with having 3 tenants living next door to her?

I use Remitly for free to pay her in USD that gets converted to her currency. 

Checkbook LLCs do have there place in certain investments such as crypto currency, tax sales, overseas purchases and storage of precious metals, etc. 

Devaluation of paper currency.

I am not trying to be negative, but realistic and aware of currency cycles.  

Well to begin with, I hope you have access to funds - as in almost all cases, there will be some type of currency exchanged to take title.
