I bought him a portable cement mixer for $2,500 to use on my house since he would have to rent for $150 per day.

shared with my housemate whose sort of a tenantjust have the portable fridge type, have mostly perrier and other soda waters in ther though at the moment =/wouldn't do a built in either but heck, its less space, capital, and maintenance than investing in a whole wine cellarrr

I have a single family home on over an acre of land, a 24x30 metal shop, insulated portable storage unit & an un insulated storage area.  

We solved the heating problem with portable propane heaters. 

I went up there, and sure enough there were inflatable beds in the rooms, portable refrigerator, barbecue grill, etc.My question is, what do you think is the best way to handle this?

Worst case, add a portable island cart to the center of the kitchen IF it doesn't crowd the space.Update your cabinets if they look old.  

Matt R. in my trip last week to Chicago I viewed rehabs and they had portable propane heaters  big ones  turned on in the units to allow them to work and paint etc.to secure homes use this system  DAWGS   its sad one needs to spend 2 to 3k to secure the home but if you don't its all stolen

Yes.. you need to do some analysis and ask yourself, does the immediate tax deferral, long term tax advantages, choice of investment, portability/mobility, liquidity of the platform warrant a steam of money going into your 401K. 

Either store it on a different computer or better yet on a portable USB disk.
