First of all, he did this to me four times, the last time he used his car to block my path.

Car rental about $30 a day if booked in advance.

For the last month it's all I have been listening to in the car, and I have Joshes book on No Money Down investing on by bedside table right now thanks to her sending it to me. 

But if you want to evaluate RE against stocks, collector cars, coins, etc. or set up an antique booth at the local mall, start a website, or maybe buy another type of business, your decisions would be much more analytical. 

I was in the car business during the 90's ( jeez, I just dated myself) & still feel guilty about the things I was told to do.

Doesn't matter if you smoke inside the apartment, outside, or in your car. 

Then value add an ADU (as large as you can build - 1200’ + giant garage (4 car: think repurpose later) for instant increased equity.  

Unit 1 is 2/1 with unpermited bonus room and unpermited 2nd bath making it a 3/2 in a sense which I assigned a 2 car garage as well.

and the house is in horror condition covered with animal fesses, dirty cloths, trash everywhere, the smell is unbearable.( i was there to talk to the neighbors, but somehow their dog broke the door and got out. got on my car wont leave.

In fact, I live in the nicest part of the city and I won't park my car outside.
