At first I didn't understand why he was doing it, then when I read "Rich Dad Poor Dad", I understood it.

@Tony Marcelle, I've never quite understood how people get Sellers to let them lease their property (instead of outright buying) for significantly less than the market rate, especially when the Seller is being asked to approve sub-leasing for higher amounts, which the Seller would not benefit from.

Understood, for Buy and Hold rent would be $1,200-$1,400 if they had military members rent, if they stuck with civilians they would make $1,000-$1,150 in rent.

And I will be lying to you if I understood most of the stuff you covered. 

I've always understood it that attorney's do not need a separate license unless they want to hang the licenses of other brokers. 

I have been researching for the past 1 1/2 years and with over 10 years of lifestyle spending on luxury car, buying house in the market peak, buying electronics and other DOODADS (as it is popularly called), I was getting anxious why I was not moving forward.Eventually I understood that (like u said) my goals/objectives were not upfront (and in WRITING).
