Unless, you are gluten for pain,  punishment and the depletion of funds. 

Jason Arcuri - The four evictions I have gone through in the last couple of years went the whole way and I was actually glad it did because otherwise it wouldn't punish the tenant.

God punishes Eli - not because he was bad, but because he knew his sons were bad and he didn't stop them.You may not be committing the crime, but you have an ethical responsibility to stand up to those committing the crime.

Then the offerer is left with the option of accepting the SEC fine and punishment, or fighting it in Federal court.  

In OH, if you negotiate a purchase price with a seller, market that property, bring buyer and seller together, and receive a fee for that, you have violated the real estate laws and it is punishable by fines, jail, and/or restitution.As stated above by others, it is mostly the gurus selling their BS courses to take money from those looking for the pie in the sky real esale riches.

You cannot accept the authority of the governing bodies that tell you what to teach, how to teach it, and that you will be punished if you do not comply.

You won't be teaching them (either the agent or the bank) a lesson by letting the deal fall through only to punish yourself by not getting the deal, assuming you still think its a deal. these mistakes happen all the time, and a mistake requiring a $30 overnight shipping fee doesn't rate too high on the blunder scale based on things I've seen in my experience (these happen all the time!).

I don't do it with my college rentals because they're already spoiled and feel entitled.My low-income tenants tend to be 'management intensive' so that rules them out.However, for the first time I did send a card with a $20 local restaurant certificate to one of my blue-collar tenants because so far they've been good tenants and good neighbors.But I'm sure I'll be punished for that somehow. . . .
