Arbitrage... when will the folly restart?

 I am just wondering how many more weeks or months it will be until newbies with that deer-in-the-headlights look start wandering in:

hey, have any of you heard  about Arbitrage,  where you don't have to buy the property to make a lot of money?  What could possibly go wrong? 

I saw a course  about Master Lease  yada yada yada 

Did you know you could  arrange 50 to a 100  units  in just 3 months  and make a bazillion dollars for only 5 hours a month totally risk free? I wanna scale fast...

You guys are doing it the hard way...

*sigh*

I wish we could see statistics on how many of rhe people lost their shirts trying to rent other peoples houses. Most likely had no reserves.

Someone will start back promoting how they can get rich with no money of their own and a new group of doe eyed followers will replace the failed group that preceded them.
