    Don't Rent to This Guy!

    REAL ESTATE 
    No. I got screwed before any of the people in the news report did. I just wanted to post this to make it easier for potential landlords to learn about this guy and to let people know to do their due diligence before renting to someone.

    The *New* Endangered Species... Your Job.

    HOT! 
    Yup. It's the way of the way of the world. Adapt or die. Always been that way, always will be. I remember seeing documentaries in my MBA classes in the early 90's about how computers were going to put everyone out of work. So much for those predictions:)

    Making sure there's a need

    As a former pilot myself, I am reminding of another pilot's advice I once received: "If it flies, floats, or f*cks, RENT it!" (I think he had been divorced three times:)) Unless your business really takes off (pun intended), and you can find a good reliable rental company, it seems like you...
