In fact, with 25+ years of flipping and investing, I have never had a claim other than a roof due to hail damage years ago.In early August I had a tenant who left a pan of oil on the stove and the subsequent fire destroyed the property. 

Industries such as healthcare, agriculture, oil and energy will be here to stay. 

Assuming you have oil production fields around you (central OK),  if I were you I'd consider training in electrician or welder.  

A lot of snake oil salespeople out there making big promises to get at your money.

The population of Texas in 2016 is now estimated at 27.4 million, and given its very high growth rate, it will be no surprise to see a substantial jump in the population at the next census.Currently, 5 of the 15 fastest-growing cities in the United States are located in Texas, and San Marcos, located between San Antonio and Austin, had the highest growth rate of any US city or town with more than 50,000 people between 2011 and 2012.The population of Texas is estimated to continue the "rural flight" trend, further increasing the population of its larger cities, with a growth fueled by the suburbs, as well as recent gas and oil development in many parts of the state.Hispanics, already a major group, are expected to become the majority by 2020, while the population also grows older as the baby boomer generation ages.

I think what we see today is the effect of oil price going to $120, but when this oil issue is resolved by itself in the next few months, CPI will go back to 5-6% (just like during covid).

No more oil changes, transmission fluids, radiator fluids what not - and the solar panels on my roof charge it daily.

Also the non-immigrants working in agriculture and oil fields- that’s hard work to me.

Will they keep "moving those goal posts," while the herd is arguing over "grazing rights" to the ever shrinking tract of grass, water and mineral rich land?

What about oil & gas?
