It never occured to me that they may allow friends to come wash their clothes - but that happened to my husband and I when we were younger and had our own place - people asked if they could do laundry at our place more than once.

I sold off our investments in 2007 because I knew the fundamentals were being ignored by the gurus and it was only a matter of time before something caused people to see the emperor had no clothes.  

Consider the pros and cons of supplying a clothes washer and dryer.

Even though they don't smoke in the house the smell still comes in on clothes or drifts in from the porch.

Most laundromats charge like $2.00 a wash, how often do you do a load of clothes..

Being tied to a low-wage job and being strung along by that employer is today's form of slavery.Negotiations don't change the cost of living, change the terms of mortgages, shorten commute distances, make family members stop eating or needing clothing and shelter, ...Taking on employees means taking ona responsibility.

I could quickly see people washing their clothes for free and then air drying them.

In NC we do pay taxes on food and clothing which took some getting used to but my property taxes are 1/3 of what I was paying in Mass. 

I have no problem with that, but I hardly have any money for myself, all the while my ex-wife is getting tattoos, buying expensive clothes and spending it on unnecessary things.I want to get the financial freedom to not have to worry about the little things.

We have been doing pretty well so far in our buy and hold business and my wife is interested in starting a business selling LuLaRue, a clothing business.
