I am new to the game and recently bought two duplexes in an area traditionally known for oil, which means it struggles at time, but with the work from home business models I have noticed a lot of people moving from the Salt Lake valley to this small oil town since they can still hold their job.  

I allowed two pets at one of my properties and they ended up with 4 dogs, 3 cats and 4 huge fish tanks.

If you guys are available on Tuesday, there's a REI Meetup at Whitey's Fish Camp in Fleming Island. 

House hacking a 4-plex in Anchorage will not generate the returns you need to go spend all of your time fishing in Homer... but living in Homer and doing a STR in your guest cabin would mean that you are already where you want to be as soon as you clock out.House-hacking, AirBnB, tele-working... these things are all just tools to use to build the lifestyle you want. 

The top unit is electric baseboards, but the bottom unit is oil - hot water heat.

This will destroy demand - consumers like us won't demand to buy stuff, won't travel much, reducing the demand for oil and will easy the pressure on the supply chain.

Garbage in, Garbage Out (GIGO)You always find the finest fishing holes in places where the average person is afraid to go.All problems are disguised as opportunities.The future you see is the future you get.How many millionaires do you know who have become wealthy by investing in savings accounts?

Of course, this goes against the guru and snake oil salesmen's rosy picture of how easy and passive it is that is sold by some here on BP and elsewhere and since the rosy picture is what the newbies want to hear, that is what they tend to listen to.
