$30 to change a lightbulb…
A grown man who makes over $150k a year should never climb a ladder or get on a roof. You can pay somebody $30 an hour to take that risk for you. A fall is a top 10 life risk and can mess up everything. Stupidity.

Hot take: If you can’t mail a letter by yourself… You shouldn’t be responsible for other people’s money πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
A client accidentally double paid a $15K invoice recently. I called to let them know and said I would shred the check. They asked me to please mail the check back to them. I had to use ChatGPT to learn where to buy a stamp. I went to Walgreens, and they made me buy 20. I used 1 and threw the other 19 away. I then had to figure out how to get the envelope in the mail. I asked the property manager of our office building what to do. She took care of it for me. Not knowing how to send mail is a huge competitive advantage.

This β€œhouse hack” was one of my first rental investments. Here's a short story thread about how much money it’s actually made me in 18 years ... (you may be as surprised by the final result as I was) 1 of 4
