They say that the holidays are the worst time to go on a diet.

Crazy but its my first diet deal.

Big auto would not be coming out with all these new models if it was just a fad or just Tesla doing this..   

I haven't been doing this for too long, but I have seen fads and trends come and go during my 8 years of investing.Trends and fads can get you a quick deal but there is no substitute for consistency through time-tested processes and systems.

Saving money for most people is the same thing as the diet component of fitness.

That should mean at least not having to be blocked from evicting bad tenants.Specifically with house hacking the two biggest challenges tend to be finding one (as they are highly in demand these days as a lifestyle fad), and the second challenge being funding one when you find it. 

You left that part out.Yeah, I get it’s the fad to constantly dog the Unites States.Yet, anyone who does sounds ignorant to me when they don’t take into consideration that this country floats a significant portion of the world’s healthcare R&D, technology R&D, entertainment, etc.Yeah, everyone here can be financially free and independent too...you just have to live in the middle of the jungle wearing a loincloth (or don’t) and hunt for wild berries.Someone has to put the work in, and there must be a reason why so many people still choose to move here.

At the end of the day, the price of real estate would just follow the money that's being printed by government, so *we are all good*.Rather than buying 100 Diet cokes in 2005, I agree , people should just buy *direct* real estate.

STR seems to be the buzz word fad now but it's complicated and hard work.

Every other post lately has been about STRs being dead and gone, nothing but a fad whose time has ended.
