I sort of skimmed past that advice about having your network in place before making a deal.

Legally 180 degrees apart.If you are finding a new tenant, charge him a higher rent and skimming off the top that would be illegal.

The kids could watch the goats get milked in morning, feed the chickens and eat farm fresh eggs for breakfast.  

I don't want to see you on the back of a milk carton.

Don't know, but milk has tracked gas since the 50's.As the retail chain of distribution uses several gas/oil-driven vehicles, it's not hard to see that OIL is a dominant player in West Coast prices.

The reader skims the letter- looking at pictures/ quotes/ (4rd thing reader looks at in letter)       Put a picture- illustartion- the human form pulls more than anything else.                        

You hear all of these best case scenario investors that have you believe it's the land of milk and honey.

@Seth Johnson - so I've skimmed all of the comments it is occurs to me that everyone is talking about earning money, but not making money.

Hold on to this cash cow, milk it, pull all the equity out in a cash out refinance, which is not a taxable event, put it in a trust, and hand it off to your heirs.Or if you love the velocity of money and are looking for the biggest bang for your buck, sell it.
