If you buy a larger vehicle (6K+ lbs), you get the *whole enchilada* in depreciation.

They are always playing stereo too loud, stolen vehicles on property and etc..

So I had an ant problem in my unit while livening there and the landlord sprayed a chemical on the countertops to combat them after the store bought stuff I was using wasn’t cutting it.

I do like leverage, and RE is one of those investment vehicles that allows you to leverage your funds.

I worked with clients that were investing in real estate, and saw the power of REI as a vehicle to build wealth. 

If Brandon Turner started a new investment vehicle, I would consider investing because I've known him for so many years and believe him to be an honest person that will work hard to make his investment succeed for him and his investors.

Also there are a lot of other SD retirement vehicles that may be better or more appropriate for specific individuals like a i401K or solo401K or using that 401K along with the ROBS (rollover for business startup) which allows your 401K to fund your business startup.

None if the chemicals used today for termites are "restricted use" Make sure and buy a NON repellent such as fipronil (termidor) or imidicloprod (premise).

note that as recent as march of this year, charlie crist nominated an incredibly liberal justice to the supreme court. he had to choose between an incredibly conservative judge (lawson) and an incredibly liberal one (perry). he choose perry.also, in past campaigns, crist was pro-choice and now claims to be pro-life. he voted against a waiting period for abortions (while a legislator) and supports same sex unions.he's also forced through 3 executive orders that would reduce greenhouse emissions, require california-style carbon dioxide monitors on vehicles, and force appliances to meet certain energy standards. all of these were influenced by al gore directly.i dunno tim, do some reading up on crist and you'll see he's pretty liberal. liberal enough for fl liberals to not hate him and for conservatives to cry that he was elected.

But that is how families I gather are doing their investments in the US, aside from those with more sophisticated investment vehicles.
