    Being a landlord can be a real job - if you have enough properties to manage, there are endless repairs or grievances to deal with. There’s government regulations, there’s tenant vetting and legal stuff. I wouldn’t want to a landlord because I would hate to deal with people complaining over stupid shit, not paying their rent on time, etc. But we really do need landlords or else there wouldn’t be any way to rent an apartment. And many people can’t afford to buy a house.

      IE, it’s a real job if you hoard a key necessity for life so you can leech of working people’s wages.

      if you think being a parasite is a lot of work get a real job.
