If you are spending 4%-6% on student loan interest but making 10%-20% on an investment you're in the black.  

We hold one in Pottsville on the last Wednesday of the month at black rock brewery.

Then to make matters worse after I’m already discouraged about my efforts as a real estate investor, I come home to find a dead chicken in my front yard wrapped up in a black plastic trash bag.

High end black and grey work nothing trashy/offensive. 

The categories I'm most interested in like creative and personal finance are buried in the absolute black hole of the bottom anyway, but agree many choices should be gone. 

I was into REI & stocks, but abandoned the equities after the infamous Black Monday (1987), so I concentrated on just accumulating Real Estate.

Although have yet to do an FC in MD with an HOA, a quick glance indicates that this, fortunately for you, is very black and white. 

What you're asking is the same thing as if you wanted to buy a car, and asked "how much should I save for a deposit on a new car"....and, saying "10 units, all 2 bed/1 bath, etc..." doesn't make it any easier than saying, "SUV, sunroof, big engine, black exterior, charcoal interior, leather, nice stereo, power seats, seat heaters, etc...".The only way of knowing is to find a property or two that might interest you, then find out how much they cost. 

You're going to be testing with postcards, mailers, lists, black/white vs color, etc.
