RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Some high level thoughts*sigh* you seem like a simple guy, so let me extend your simple metaphor with small, simple words
When you run around talking about your income property, how much it is worth and how much cash flow it generates, I am the type that simply points out that your brother in law owns 49% of it, so not all of that income and value is yours. It's not a hard concept, it's simply a fact!
As an aside, why is this board so weirdly emotional? It seems like there are two kinds of people that post here:
1. those that come here to make themselves feel better and lash out when presented with data
2. those that that come here to make fun of #1
