I have gotten inquiries about a slow cooker or an air fryer even. 

First congrats on growing a monster U tube gig.

Im sorry, you act like you know the exact algorithm used by Air or VRBO, because "you worked for Amazon". but you are only guessing, as are most people. again, there are a lot of good hosts and owners, it is always going to be hard to get on the first page, hoping the filters help rule of competition.

Purchase price: $313,000 Cash invested: $62,600 Vacation Home and Air B&B

Plus his on air persona is a likable guy who seems to genuinely want to help (maybe he did start off that we, we have no way of knowing).

YoutubeTV is a great alternative to cable for local news, sports, over-air stations, etc.

Im more a hands on learning definitely and as far as living in a unit i couldn't yet because its out of the kids school district  plus the limited space. but thats the goal, to buy a small air or inn to manage and run for work while still renting in our district and then looking to buy since we're renters again!

He parked his car, and ran up on us with his arms in the air yelling "dont shoot me". 

A lot were doing air bnb up until the new rules came in place for the city of San Diego but you can still find a property outside the city that you can potentially do STR with to cash flow. 

Ended up with negative cash flow due to replacing an air conditioner.
