Seeing REI as a game of monopoly
I have read a lot of threads about how people deal with the stress of real estate. Indeed the constant problems with bad tenants and shonky contractors is enough to give anyone high blood pressure.
Personally I started buying real estate like I was playing a game of monopoly. Literally I was on the other side of the world and it was just like moving little figurines around a board.
I've now moved up to taking the job more seriously but I try to maintain the same mindset. Life after all is just a game of monopoly and things like houses and money don't matter when you die.
Also I think it helps if you maintain a paying job so that you still have income and your life won't be directly affected by those non-paying tenants or thieving contractors.
Thoughts and opinions welcomed.
