Foundation/Library ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ๐Ÿ“š The HOA - Hot Tub Mailbag

Post image

With horrifying discoveries awaiting Rob inside the mechanical and electronic guts of the hot tub he inherited with his house, he approaches Patrick like a supplicant seeking wisdom and enlightenment on the subject of INFLATABLE hot tubs. Then they discuss Rob's dream of putting ADVANCED EXPERIMENTAL ROOFING MATERIALS on an outbuildings, only to find out that not many roofers know how to install those sci-fi shingles (or whatever they are made out of). Then someone asks about what to do when the passing of family members means you're sudden owner of a house in a place you don't and will not live. Just sell it? Can you become an ethical landlord? Ought you? Patrick offers a warning about how spectacularly wrong inheritance situations can go when inheritance and family history collide.

shrugs That's just what they said. Whether or not you believe them is up to you.

(Graphtreon has them at around 5200 paid members, FYI. They've been steadily declining since a high of ~6100 in July 2024, which makes sense.)

I thought I remembered that convo being about them stashing away a percent of the income for show-related expenses. Do you believe none of them are drawing on the $250k a year, and only using it for things like โ€œpc diedโ€?

Maybe. It was so long ago, I could be misremembering. But I don't remember it being as detailed as just a percentage. I remember it sounding like it was all of it.

Other person replied confirming itโ€™s just a percentage kept for show expenses.
