Definitely excited I found this community and I'm trying to consume as much information as I do junk food.

Enjoy the villas, sand, warm weather, and the food!

Income verification can be tricky if the person works in the food service industry. 

I hear the tenants are now living in their junk vehicle & delivery food for a pizza joint.Sold the place, invested the cash into yet another property & moved on. 

There cannot be any food or grease or glossy paint left.  

Their next meeting is a "WIRE (Women In Real Estate)" lunch this coming Thursday, which for obvious reasons i've never been to, but my wife tells me the food is excellent :)Thanks @Dawn Brenengen for the tip on the BP meetup; i'm going to try to make it myself.

Food for thought: If you want a better answer, ask a better question.

Monitor the money they have availible to them--require 75% of it to be saved in the big jar (one for each child), the other 25% can go into SMALLER Ball Jars (one for each child) that lives in the kitchen food cupboard (next to the Campbell's soup (I assume you have that child favorite) with the lid on TIGHT.All buying decisions must be made with the help of the parents, and a paper chit replacing the money in the jar showing what is spent (ie. $22.50 for new doll clothes March 1, 2023).When a new purchase is wanted Butterfly Hair Barrets for $3.00, discuss it, and remind her of the other purchases she made, for how much and (How Often).It''s not about saving as much as learning to spend thriftily, Mrs Dolly goes on sale before school starts--why not buy then.Large jar = savings, small jar = spendables--with discussion--to get them to think before spending.Teach them to grocery shop (boys too), one at a time, (take turns) make a grocery list with her for 3 days worth of meals for the family.Teach them about sales on foods, and then go with her and let her pick and put in the cart as well as total up the costs on her phone as you go.When it's time to pay, give her the cash and let her put all the items on the checkout roller, as well as keep the amount she saved as payment for shopping for the family. 3/4 into savings 1/4 into spendings.Try to get them involved in prepping each of the meals they bought (one at a time) (boys too) so they can get a feel for (where the money goes).Two or three times of this--and they will probably be an expert at (saving) on the food bill, as well as getting some eperiances and confidence in the kitchen (vs play cooking or just making cookies with a parent).Good Luck!
