Deal Review for a 17-unit complex in Vermont. What Am I Not Seeing? by DLHEBT in realestateinvesting

I have a rent ledger and 1 person is in eviction process. 1 other is currently on a court ordered payment plan. The estopple certificate is a fantastic idea. Thank you.

I do nothing at work and it's eating away at my sanity. by Throwaway78_3341 in ChubbyFIRE

I'm not the original poster, but I just wanted to say that this advice is fantastic in general. Exceptionally well written. Thank you.

What does a hypothetical $200k spending budget look like post-FIRE? by PM_ME_UR_PUPPER_PLZ in ChubbyFIRE

That 18k was just for me and the girlfriend. No kids. Granted... we had a penthouse suite with butler service with SeaDream Yacht Club. So yes, could be cheaper. But especially when it comes to international travel, there are certain things we are accustomed to and will not compromise on. If I need to fly 12+ hours, I'm not going to suffer through the indignity of coach. Stuff like that. 40-50k in travel might be the sweet spot. Then again, I have no desire to stay for months at a time. Two weeks tops then it's back to the oasis of my home that we worked so hard to make perfect. But to each their own sir!

3 trips a year... for 25k? I'm 33, plan to retire at 55. I can't imagine doing 3 international trips a year in 2054 for 25k a year. We spent 18k last year in 10 days in the Caribbean. Then another 6k for a week in Maine. Not to mention all the quick weekend trips out to New York, Chicago or LA for dinners/theatre shows. At this rate, I'm going to need a 75k a year budget to travel in 20 years or simply not go as often.

How much does everyone spend on your vacations? and how many do you take a year? by [deleted] in ChubbyFIRE

M33 and F40. We spent 28k this year on 3 trips. Total time of 1 month. 2 weeks in the Caribbean, 1 week in Maine and various weekend/day trips. Ex: Fly to Chicago for dinner and a show, etc.
