I am going on 2 years of house hacking (plan to house hack for a 3rd year), and I am looking to hear your perspective of how many short term rentals it has taken you to achieve Fat FIRE. 

Lol, Travis, That day is coming soon and don't be surprised when you get that fat check for the tax deductible donation I make in your name.

Is like having a big fat savings account and you only pay interest when you use the money.

Now we are into Mobile Home Parks and are fat dumb and happy in that position now.

Attach a nice big fat earnest money check.

Get your head around it and it will be your friend.To purport that BP is feeding all us fat kids the latest Unicorn Latte to our own demise is a rather uninformed, hilarious and way off the mark comment.

In addition to what you see in this thread, I'd recommend adding a fat safety cushion to your budget for all unplanned expenses. 

Go buy a dozen of those cheap little blank yard signs (the ones with the wire H frame work fine), a big fat tipped sharpie, and a lock box.

That might be a fat chance answer but it's what you could use if he'll give it to you. 

But to tack a $10k fee onto a deal that's already thin (using the 70% guideline) just smacks of greed (or stupidity, or a fundamental misunderstanding of what an investor buyer is looking for).Pigs get fat; hogs get slaughtered.
