It is kind of like a diet but once you start losing the weight and start seeing results, you start to really buy in.

There is NO WAY someone as apparently wealthy, smart and likeable as the OP would not have known he was moving into an ashtray with walls,  pre-primed and painted.With all your paid for property, millions and swag, why are you living in squall I wonder? 

Burrell hey I’m not some wealthy real estate tycoon.

The tenants moving in are wealthy and have expensive taste.

Don't buy in a very rough area, but don't buy in an uber wealthy area either.  

The party students (as I’m told by several who have lived here for several years and are in the know) and those with wealthy parents flock to the apartments offering all the upscale amenities.

i support having C/D class paid for  assuming thats what you run in Milwaukee.. as for letting us old folks kack off cant get behind that one  :)  you know 65 is the new 45. 65 is absolutely the new 45 and you'll be just fine - I suggest a healthy diet!

I'm not wealthy and can't keep my rentals if all of my tenants decide that they're not going to pay. 

He preaches that “the best way for the average American to get wealthy is through mutual funds.” I agree with that statement.

The idea is that they will lighten your load, but don't ever expect to not have a finger on the pulse of your business, unless you want to lose money.Just think of all of the really wealthy superstars who have lost everything because they trusted a manager completely.The real problem is that the PM industry has somehow been created in a way that is completely unrealistic.
