For most of my tenants enhanced unemployment paid better than their jobs, but if they aren't getting those checks they are in line at the food banks.

Yes, being a debt free millionaire is way better than being bankrupt, and living a monastic lifestyle sure beats being a drug addict or a prostitute, but going bankrupt and losing everything because he got burned using high interest 90 day loans with no guarantee of renewal like Dave did, then declaring that all debt is bad because of this and saying that 30 year fixed rate loans should be avoided, is like someone who goes out with an ex-con member of a biker gang - gets sexually assaulted by the gang - and then declares that sex is bad and no one should have sex.  

The key is not to discriminate on ethnicity, sex, age, sexual orientation, disability ect. 

Unbelievable. Besides his vague inquiry about the bg check, he was unwilling to tell me what his exact charges were. Just that they were child abuse. I asked him if it was a felony and he hemmed and hawed but wouldn't...

@Martin Lopez  A warm welcome to BP Community - a place to enhance and share your REI knowledge.

That, coupled with the possible ability to increase rent over the years, as well as adding value by enhancing those features renters look for most in a property, can help to increase cash flow.Thank you for your input!

He might even be a better renter, based on his service history.I would personally be apprehensive with convictions for violent crimes, serious misdemeanors and felonies, felony drug convictions, criminal mischief (vandalism), domestic violence cases (with some exceptions), serious theft cases, and sexual assaults.
