@InstantNoodle36 @uubzu @SpencerAlthouse And when did your family get the opportunity to migrate here?

@RichardK4 @uubzu @SpencerAlthouse The children of the top 1% of Indian families who can migrate to the United States slightly outperform average Americans… incredible stuff here.

@SpencerAlthouse Everyone says Indian people are smart? I’m hearing this for the first time

@AlexForbesOps If you want to see them get really mad ask them if the b2b services they utilize should also increase prices for identical services based on the landlords gross rental revenue.

If you’re a landlord and you think you can jack up rent because your tenant’s business is doing well, you’re an idiot. Market rent is a function of negotiating. If you didn’t negotiate a % of sales as part of rent, you don’t have a leg to stand on trying to raise rates once you become aware of the P&L.

@CindyKatz9 @uubzu @SpencerAlthouse Oh so now your claim is they're not smarter than you they just work way harder than you, good ol lazy boy over here telling on himself. Indian Americans have the single highest median household income of all ethnicities in the U.S. for a reason.

@RichardK4 @uubzu @SpencerAlthouse Coloring in circles,you study~6yrs/ 5k+hours w tutors (which colleges are onto&can tell if it's all they bring)&performing work tasks aren't the same thing&falls far short of leadership. Your basis shows a sys hack. Post is re India whose own gov Econ plan=H1B visa program hack.

@1984Turning @uubzu @SpencerAlthouse If they're only smart because they have access to America it's even more impressive that you're so fucking stupid despite having access to America.

@RichardK4 @uubzu @SpencerAlthouse x.com/i/status/20508… Its because theyre a culture of overachievers due to izzat. Indian americans are only "smart" because they have access to america.

There can often be situations where the rent is higher than the landlords costs, but lower than what *your* costs over the same time period would be. Say I'm only planning to be in a city for a few years, or know I'm going to want to upgrade to a nicer house within a few years. The costs to: -Close on a house -Pay the front end of the interest amoritization -Prep and pay an agent ti sell that house -While then paying to close on another -On top of the opportunity cost of tying up the down payment for the house vs. investing it. Those combined can *significantly* exceed the cost of renting especially when staying somewhere 5 years or less. So there are many people's situations where they're better off renting than buying, but it has nothing to do with affordability for that set of people

Let's make this very very simple here Landlords are operating a business designed to make money. In no instance will a renter be charged less than the total costs to the landlord if the situation is to be viable for any length of time. Owning will always and forever be more financially advantageous than renting over longer timeframes.

@WYTradePost @CherryKnightley @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent Business people worth a fuck like everyone's money. There's a reason you're (allegedly) a former trader and only doing rural rehab projects instead of anything more lucrative. Loser.

This was just sent to me by another strip mall owner

I've *literally* been arguing with him the entire time and commented the instant he let the racist out, and now we'll see if we can't identify him to let his customers and business associates know they're working with a nazi. -- I separately responded to *you* and *your* comment on gentrification. Occupying empty buildings in rural areas isn't gentrification. Period.

@RichardK4 @WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent You’re still guns a’blazing over your right to profit off land which, again, on the priority scale of 0 to “distancing myself from a Nazi” (not just a racist! An avowed Nazi!) I would be much more concerned about the Nazi part than making it clear where I stand on gentrification!

@CherryKnightley @WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent I know nothing about dude, he came up in a thread, we argued, he turned out to be a racist. Somehow in your wetbrain that means I sided with a racist

@CherryKnightley @WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent I wasn't siding with a racist you annoying dipshit. I responded to *you* calling filling out empty buildings gentrification.

@CherryKnightley @WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent I don't defend people - I discuss topics. Him being racist doesn't make occupying empty buildings gentrification

@RichardK4 @WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent Well I’m glad you defended him! Who knows, if you hadn’t pushed his buttons, I might have been proven wrong!

@WYTradePost @CherryKnightley @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent No, you haven't Why should you charge variable rent based on gross but your utility shouldn't charge variable $/kwh based on gross? You have explained why you want to charge variable rent. You have not explained why other people shouldn't treat you the same.

@CherryKnightley @WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent Hey now, I want people to make money, occupying empty buildings isn't gentrification. He just can provide no logical argument for his rent to vary based on his customers revenue but not for his own expenses to vary based on his revenue.

@WYTradePost @RichardK4 @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent “Dude you don’t get it, we’re gentrifying here!” made me actually laugh out loud. Thanks, man, nothing more on the nose than a Texas landlord not having the tact to stop him from saying the quiet part out loud. Yee haw.

@WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent No, you'll find me generally very pro business. Should your utility charge you more for the exact same use based on gross receipts? They are providing identical service, you provide identical service to two tenants in identical pads. Why should your prices vary not theirs?

@WYTradePost @BarryG00975211 @realEstateTrent You aren't answering the question. If you charge two customers wildly different prices based on their gross receipts then why shouldn't every business whose services you utilize base your price on your gross receipts?

@BarryG00975211 @WYTradePost @realEstateTrent Every other industry needs to start treating commercial landlords exactly the same way they treat their tenants.

@RichardK4 @WYTradePost @realEstateTrent It’s extremely common. You’re just showing your ignorance. Also, you do understand that it’s just an additional component of rent, correct? There’s base rent and then a breakpoint based on a percentage of sales. The percent rent only applies to sales above the breakpoint.
