又到了接受预定明年房子的时段。今天收到了一对老夫妻的讯问信如下。 

Hello. My wife and I are looking for a rental unit at the XXX community  from December 2017 thru March 2018. Been doing this for 15 years in FL, we are both 86 years old, I am a retired Judge from OH. Been a residential landlord for more than 50 years can assure you I know what is required to take care of a residential unit.

我回了信, 给了电话号码, 那个老头就打电话来了, 我问他How are you ? 他的回答是 “I am fine, just old", 跟他聊了聊, 他已86,也是个退休法官, 但在 OH 拥有 400个公寓,真有钱。

他打算租4个月,我本来打算给他5%的折扣, 一听他那么有钱,我马上不谈价钱了,让他下周来看房因为我下周会在那里。

人老了也无所谓,毕竟都会老的,但如果老了,却没钱就比较悲惨。  

下周和退休法官见面时,好好跟他聊聊,取点经,想知道他是如何积攒下400个公寓的。
