@Lucas Carl I hate all games, so I'm not a good judge when it comes to that :).  

@Carl Fischer I’ll be keeping the property and will be finding property management to fill my room with another renter.

@Carl Fischer.

Once you are a billionaire like Peter Thiel, you can start financing lawsuits against companies like Gawker for fun and giggles.

Billionaire Howard Marks says there are bold investors and there are old investors, but there are no old-bold investors.Not being overly levered, having proper reserves and stress testing are critical.I like Ramsey as a person, but his main audience is people who shouldn’t ever have a credit card because they aren’t responsible enough to manage it and not get buried in debt they can’t ever repay. 

@Carl Millsap Thank you for the in depth response Carl.

Contrary to what @Luke Carl is suggesting it is far from a "do it yourself or lose money proposition."   

@Lucas Carl The only tenant I ever had that rose to that level of crazy was NPD (narcissistic personality disorder); he actually told me that-- and I believe it because he had all the symptoms.
