YOU CAN AND WILL ONLY BECOME SMARTER.in any case it seems like you were taking things personal  (explains why you couldn't understand how I could manage  properties, but I by nature am a guy that can take....) but I really really did not have any intention of doing thsa, it's just my humorous way of bringing out a point, my deepest apologies however if you would like to hear any kind of advice, I am all here to help other people, experienced as well as inexperienced     Good luck
