"Steal a little, they throw you in jail. Steal a lot, they make you a king".

Just to be fair. Many homes are modified aka flipped. Not saying they do a great job….

I feel like there has to be a half-life for scalping. If I buy a new-in-box item that has limited supply and immediately flip it, that’s definitely scalping. If I sit on it for 30yr and then flip it, is that really scalping? I dunno. I buy a lot of old mint board games to actually play them. I have to pay a huge markup. I don’t know that it’s necessarily right from a commerce perspective to expect someone who’s held onto something for 30yr and kept it in good shape to not get something extra for that time and work.

It just depends if it's something people need

Silly investors, must learn from my secret method to obtain true inner haopiness:

1. Buy house during shortage when prices are insane
2. Everything breaks and you struggle through replacing it all one by one
3. Prices go down more than offsetting your efforts with loss
4. ????
5. Profit. Emotionally. Because you're happy with the heap of wood sticks plywood and fancy paper over your head that keeps you dry and comfy and weren't planning to sell it anyway.

Replace scalper and investor with: 'cunt'
