The average person’s dream is to be able to exploit their neighbors. They won’t say it of course. But they’ll talk about wanting to own property to rent. When my family came here and was poor as hell, my dad considered buying two houses to rent the other.
Luckily my mom talked him out of it, but that’s because he was planning on doing all the maintenance work and answering calls lol. Wonder how it would’ve played out if they learned that you can be a lazy bum and outsource everything at your leisure and most people won’t be able to complain because housing would be scarce 10 years later.
