    My wife and I went with @biophase to antelope canyon. It was in the area of our white-water rafting trip through the Grand Canyon. Wonderful adventure. We also went together to Havasupai falls. That guy gets around... I've hiked the grand canyon a few times. Details of one of the trips are...

    You should get service at most of these places. I don't recall any real issues. I quit going to the national parks due to crowds and congestion. Last time at Bryce, we had to sit in a line. One car out and one car in. We ended up circling around to the bottom of the canyon where a local sent...

    Where is the shame if you have a product that people can use? Oh... I get it. Those corrupt religions might not approve. Many people use sex toys. What is wrong with that? If it hurts people or takes advantage of the innocent, that is another story. But, if it is a tool that enhances...

    I do expect that it will come out in favor of selling. That's always been my mantra. But it also seems relevant to consider your living status. Then again... cash to start another...

    You have a plan and experience. Different situation. That said... I don't know if that cheap money will come back around. Some people should keep that in place. Put your plan down on paper and project the potential difference.

    Seems to me that you have a plan. My daughter has a 3% interest rate with a lot of equity. I've actually tried to discourage her from selling.

    Would you be selling into weakness? Where will you live once sold?

    We have both. Ocean is 2.5 hrs away and mountains with elevation and forests are about 1.5. I spend a lot of time at the beach in my motor home. It took a couple years to get used to the heat but not an issue for me now.

    Perhaps I'm on the outer fringes. We have mild winters and extremely hot summers. I'm outside more hours in the summer than winter. Yes it's hot but I'm very used to it. There used to be a running race called the "death race" in the death valley/baker area. Training involved a number of 8-12...

    Do You Live in a Big City, a Town, or in the Countryside?

    I live in a medium city. Spent most of my life in large cities, San Diego and Phoenix. I'm on the extreme edge. Nothing behind me but unbuildable mountains. Yet, I'm 5 minutes from a major grocery store and my golf course. Coyote's, bighorn sheep and giant lizards roam the property. This...

    Thanks. There are a couple of strategies that I have used. Value Add: Find a property that through improvements, will be worth significantly more. The goal here is to update, add amenities, change the tenant base. Anything that will make the rental worth more to the tenants. One of my...

    Airbnb is a different animal. There are some significant advantages. They must be done right though. Starting small is fine. I started with a 4plex. But I had a plan which involved rapid growth. 4 years later I had 60 units or more. I wasn't trying to criticize your plan. Just adding some...
