When you add for instance the things that were said by people like Richard Clark, and others in the administration that left and came out against the President, the "bad intel" on WMDs, the shifting of story lines and purpose(Wmds today, regime change tomorrow, then liberation of a people who we found out didnt want us there), It leads you to suspicious conclusions.

Great post Ryan.In conclusion, YES, you can make a great deal of money (without the management headaches) by lending money secured by RE.

However, current and future stimulus activity will provide for an economic recovery, which is likely to show signs of turnaround in the second half of 2009, with solid economic performance in 2010.Conclusion 2: Many people live in fear because of what they hear in the media, while others chase ‘get-rich-quick’ schemes, or do what everybody else appears to be doing (eg. stop spending and hold on to every penny they have).

I reach conclusions based on extensive personal experience and more than sufficient research data.

A ton of ink has been generated demonstrating conclusively that renting often makes more sense than owning. 

@Serena Tillman I did something similar in Hoboken, and I came to the conclusion that the only investment that can make sense if you dont want to bank on appreciation is buying and househacking, ie buy a multipropriety, live in one and rent the other part.Reach me with a PM, we do have a Hoboken/JC group you can join

In conclusion, I think it is much bigger than "Landlords need to Have a Heart".   

In fact, the IRS has a program targeting this election for audits.But my conclusion is different from yours.

I have done both and came to the conclusion other people are better at mowing...
