Comment on Hexbear federation megathread
betelgeuse@hexbear.net 1 year agoIf your goal was to house people then you could just charge the amount of property tax since your mortgage is $0. So, oof, yeah I do totally got you. Your investment is paid off, since the house is paid off. The only thing left is just wanting people to pay you for nothing.
Embrace what you are. Stop trying to abstract it behind being a saint or appeals to the market.

Akshually, I’d have to charge for maintenance, property taxes, pest control, property manager fees etc. But yeah I COULD do that
Yeah I’m renting the place out- yeah because I own it and don’t live there anymore I came up with a better idea. Sure I could just sell it I suppose- but I’m just gonna go reinvest that money elsewhere and you’ll have an equal problem with that.
That’s not my goal. Never said it was. I’m building wealth for myself and family. I don’t plan to work forever and this is my way to retirement.
Not a saint- never claimed it. I have some news for you- you aren’t either. Else you’d be at a food kitchen feeding the hungry. Or working the local shelter. Or even better providing your place as a shelter. But man oh man am I willing to bet you aren’t housing anyone for free either.
Embrace what you are rather than trying and failing to claim some moral high ground and simultaneously proclaiming your ideology isn’t about morals.
