Attn Bper: Bens $1000 a month rule - learn it, love it, leave it?

[Matt R.]

I was just reading Ben's latest blog post and he brought up some real numbers after owning 100 doors. His experience has led him to the conclusion you need to get $1000 per month(sfh) in order to cover expenses and still make a profit. Now he is in Ohio but he is convinced this rule applies nearly everywhere. There are some exceptions for being local but if it was under $1000 that was more of a job/investment vs a semi passive income play. 

Here is his post;

Should this be a rule like 50%? Let us know what you think.
