And while you mentioned your 2 agents in your profit share tree, I have over 400 and counting, including a team leader or two, spread across multiple states. 

Planted trees, Blueberry bushes What was the outcome?

The trees are great. 

Or just let their trees grow?

These clowns we elect spend money like it grows on trees......well they do print it, so I guess it kinda does...Bush added $5.8 T, (Although he did have the 9/11 wars)Obama $8.6 T (after calling Bush 'unpatriotic' for increasing the debt :-)Trump added $6.7 T, a good part of that due to CovidBiden, so far, is at $ 3.9 TThat's $25 TRILLION in 22 years....And you actually say that we don't spend trillions 'on the norm'....?

Long Beach and Joshua Tree California!

I was lucky to get a plumber out to fix the issue (tree root in the sewer line) within 2 hrs for <$700Winter freeze – a tenant left the door to the basement open (where the laundry is) and 5 pipes burst.

I don't have trees around the house and my roof is facing south, which is ideal. 

Standard of living is so much better elsewhere.I'll happily pay taxes and live here, in my much larger than 900 sq/ft house that I paid just over $200K for, (my master bath has so much floor to ceiling travertine, you'd think you were in a Vegas hotel - far cry from a shack) where I have a dozen palm trees on my 1/4 acre yard with a pond, 365 day a year vegetable & herb garden, 300+ days a year of not just sunshine, but clear skies and shorts/t-shirt & flip-flops weather, beaches, snow, mountains, desert, forests and resort living lifestyle, (not even to mention the absurd income opportunities) than get paid to live in Washington.

I can tell you during the time of your post in Mid-June, the next bootcamp was contracted to be at the Double Tree Hotel in Atlantic Beach on October 9, 10, and 11.
