I saw a lot of developers in 2007 get pounded trying to make the huge scores when the development cycle changed on them.

The price per pound was great, but expenses are high and rents are very low in the area, thus the thin yields.

Let's start off with one pound.

A little to filling, also you could mix it up and change sauces or cook in fish or a type of meat or veggies. 10 pounds of rice will run you about what you'd pay for one day's worth of lunch and will probably last you a year.Also many banks offer a brokerage service, at least with wellsfargo they have a money market account that is highly liquid, i can get cash from it in ~2-3 days, and it pays monthly interest at a 4.65% APR.

Lots of people in this thread could benefit from reading Joe Davalos's experience as I see a lot of people unfamiliar with the saying "penny wise, pound foolish" when it comes to their direct mail:"I've done direct mail in house for the last 3 and a half years.

Guess they felt that losing 1 pound a month was good for them.Either way, it is interesting to note how people view Smokers v Non-Smokers as well as Thin/Fat people.

I have other strategies to deal with paying but unwanted tenants.

would the constant pounding just break the cement ?

Finally, you can make a deal with the tenants - offer to buy them out - now if they are paying $400 for a $1,000 unit, they can figure out that it is worth a lot of money to give up that unit - over $7,000 in just one year, but who knows, sometimes people are penny wise and pound foolish - a big roll of $5,000 in $20s may persuade someone.

How do I delete old unwanted rental property calculations for the new rental calculator?
