Can someone clarify....I've read conflicting answers. 

@Nat ChanYour third and fourth paras seem to conflict...  

And $450 for a 1/1 side of a duplex is not expensive.So much conflicting advice here!

Continuing to obtain “OPM” as Kiyosaki says also makes the argument less relevant to some extent; as we aren’t simply trying to out-save or reduce expenses to zero—- that mindset is fine but it begins to conflict with the principles of intelligent utilization of leverage IMO.

I think the folks that dislike the job take things personaly or internalize the conflicts....

Fact is negative events (cat fights, violence, conflicts, bad news etc) have been craftily used to drive up eyeballs and ratings for reality TV shows.

Those two statement do not conflict at all.

I have been overseas working in a true society that lives in daily conflict of war and instability everyday.
