Why the fuck should the price to rent something give profit over the monthly pay of a loan to own it?
Landowners want renters to pay for their stuff. They're lazy leeches.
See, your foolish mistake is applying morals and logic to the profit drive. There are none to be found, there. Just people who want more money, because they can, and have the law behind their back, threatening you with homelessness and the destruction of your continued existence.
Jokes on my landlord, if I ever lose everything, so does he. 🔥
Damage to Capital is based.
They're insured against your pyrotechnic solutions. Are you? Typically insurance doesn't pay out to the policy holder if they intentionally cause the damage.
Well in this scenario, presumably I have "lost everything" and therefore do not care whether the landlord is insured against fire.
He'll burn just the same with or without insurance.
If you're taking in rent for only the predictable running costs then how are you paying for some sudden issues?
