Why can't a heterosexual guy tell a heterosexual guy that he thinks his booty is fly? Not all the time obviously just when he's got a problem with his self-esteem.

Reply to Should I sell my rental property? by babyspout

You just experienced the major downside of investing in property when you don't have enough liquid assets to cover unexpected expenses: you have to sell the entire property to get your money out. If you have no liquidity, then that's the position you're in. Remember, there are other ways to invest besides property that are very lucrative, a standard brokerage account and an S&P 500 Index fund being one of them. The benefit is you can sell some of your investments instead of the entire thing to get some cash out.

I would sell the property and put the proceeds (minus what you pay in taxes), into a brokerage account. No debt on that investment either. Pretty big plus.

It's also capable of making tactical decisions, which is cool. I informed the bot it had a sword and a pistol, and told it there was an enemy rifleman and an enemy swordsman an equal distance away. When asked what it was going to do, it correctly deduced taking out the rifleman first was the correct choice.

> According to the CDC, from 2019 to 2020, the suicide rate declined overall by 3%.

To quote myself:

> This occurred more often with those that were already marginalized before Covid hit because they had fewer resources to start and got more marginalized and felts the impacts more acutely.

Though i would double check that suicide stat. There might be an asterisk in the stat for “ruled a suicide” vice just calling something a accident and moving on.
