Immigrant family (Indian). [19:13] DaemonFC Probably just trying to run a small business. [19:13] DaemonFC I can tell you they're going to have their hands full on this place. [19:13] DaemonFC Between mold and mildew, rotten wood all over the place, bad air conditioners... [19:14] DaemonFC Mark wasn't bothering to evict anyone for months.

[19:18] schestowitz ok [19:19] DaemonFC It's hard to describe but it's not natural for me. It's like having to set up a buffer between what I'm thinking and saying and to control my body language willfully. It's like, forcing yourself to behave logically when that's not where your mind wants to be. [19:19] DaemonFC It's in there and your brain is like the city dump, and you have to make it seem calm, logical, ordered, and structured.

[19:22] DaemonFC I mean, it has some effect. It slows me down to an extent. [19:23] DaemonFC I'm surprised that my behavior off my meds didn't get me into very serious trouble. [19:23] DaemonFC I don't know about psychiatry. I don't think it's advanced very far in decades on this problem. [19:24] DaemonFC They figure out new things to call stuff, and they don't make progress. [19:24] DaemonFC It reminds me of Windows. There are new releases with a coat of paint. [19:24] DaemonFC It distracts from "What are you actually doing?" [19:25] DaemonFC And that's the DSM and how they update it. [19:26] DaemonFC schestowitz, If they want to fix everything that's wrong with this place they're going to need another $2.3 million. [19:26] DaemonFC I hope they're ready for what they've just bought. [19:26] DaemonFC They should talk to the tenants about the place before they buy. [19:27] DaemonFC They'll never get their investment back at the rent they can charge on this place. [19:27] DaemonFC They're going to have to remove everything including the doors. [19:28] DaemonFC schestowitz, My guess is they'll gut the rooms as they become available. [19:28] DaemonFC Mom said her landlord told her he's never been able to fully remodel any of his buildings because by the time a person moves out someone needs to move in tomorrow and says don't even worry about cleaning it. They will. [19:29] DaemonFC schestowitz, It doesn't sound like they really care what shape things are in like the trim and doors and stuff. They anticipated that. [19:30] DaemonFC It's all coming out anyway. [19:30] schestowitz so prices will go up [19:30] schestowitz to make up for the "investment' [19:30] DaemonFC So I don't really have to bicker with anyone and go "You know, I haven't lived here since 1971. I don't know who flooded the bathroom 20 years ago." [19:30] DaemonFC schestowitz, Probably at some point. [19:31] DaemonFC schestowitz, I'm going to throttle back on the 401(k) in a few months and get several of Mandy's paychecks that look bigger in case we have to move. Then dial it back up. [19:31] DaemonFC Landlords want to see higher income. Once you're in they don't care as long as the rent's not late.
