The area is economically quite vibrant, as NWA is home to Walmart, Tyson Foods and J.B.

When I first started I'd work 9-4 as an agent then worked at a fast food joint from 5-11.

Tyson Foods also recently invested $48M into the long-term growth of its poultry plant - hopefully adding 70+ jobs - and the town just reopened their new 33K SF library.

One guy wanted me to cook his food. 

As you move from national, to regional, to mom and pop local tenants then the intensity of management and risk to the cash flow stream can change.You mention a Whole foods strip mall deal.

My cleaner saw wet dog food cans, dog bags and pee pads in the trash.

So take everything with a grain of salt keeping that in mind. 

The business pays lots of bills like gas, tires, oil changes, eating out with clients, steak dinner for twice monthly board meetings with my wife/partner, trips to see properties where I happen to have a bike ride and stay the weekend to look at properties(air bnb stay is a business expense as well as food).

One point in my life, I didn't eat for a week because I couldn't afford food.

I like the numbers.Disclaimer: please take my input with a grain of salt; I'm still in the middle of my first deal lol.
