My G/F's sister and her husband have rented for the last 20 years, primarily the hubby is not handy and doesn't know the difference between a hammer and a screwdriver. He laughs when I mention having to fix a toilet, or clean a clog in the drain. He mimicks picking up a phone, calling the landlord, and making him fix it.
Well, he owns two carpet cleaning franchises. As we all know, carpets are now all but extinct, and he can't get anyone to buy his business. He also doesn't have money to buy a house, because all his money went to his landlords.
They are being forced to buy a shack somewhere in Kentucky, will have to leave his family who all live locally, and has lots of regrets.
