We gave another trusted worker an advance of $200 for the holidays and then he had a medical emergency and couldn't pay it back right away, so we told him not to worry about it until his health improves.

@Felicia Gordon In my opinion, degrees are most useful for super technical things and knowledge that you absolutely must have on a job- like being a CPA or engineer, or any health field.

Without going overboard, you know that in places like Los Angeles, that's actually good business sense and "good health sense" so too speak. 

One of the reasons that poor people remain poor is that they are the greatest consumers.....my lower income renters have the $1,500 tv's and latest smart phones but they take public transportation and will rent forever.

Meth is a bad compound and a esquire/judge/jury would destroy a greedy R/E investor for not getting it tested if disclosed before selling or especially knowingly renting it that might expose the poor tenant to long term exposure....
