I very much like the PM sweat equity play..

When you invest, time, money and sweat in a project, your focus and dedication are all in the same place and learning can be accelerated.....as they said, experience is your best teacher. 

The greatest rate of return tends to come with the greatest risk of failure.Low-income properties can bring a much better return but they will require more sweat equity and sleepless nights.

Of course as he stayed in his nice air conditioned office which he rightfully earned I sweated in the shop with no AC doing manual labor.

Cash those rent checks and don't sweat the small stuff until it effects said rent checks.

@Alex Young It sounds like you're starting from step 1 - not a problem, but climbing the ladder to make things happen is gonna take some sweat and tears.What do you have that will give you an advantage in this business?

Then the government can just step in and change the law.Blood sweat tears doesn't pay. 

You don't need to be sweating in a filthy hovel swatting flies.  

Mine is pretty nice, so I actually like going there.I think it is great you have found ways to cut spending, but noticeably missing from your list is sweat equity.

I don’t sweat that little stuff.
