I’ve never heard anyone call being a landlord a job. Purchasing real estate is an investment. Managing property could be a job. A landlord might pay someone to manage their property or they might do it their self.

Being a landlord isn't a job. It's literally just resource hoarding and legal scalping.

Who cares if it’s a job or not. If it’s not you it’s none of your business

Landlords are essential, yall are just too privileged to see it from a different point of view

Managing the risk of different asset classes is absolutely a job, we call it portfolio manager.

Property management is a job and if you think it’s not; give it a try. It’s a shitty thankless job. What you’re actually talking about is real estate investing. It’s not a job, it’s investing; and anyone is allowed and encouraged to do it. I build em and sell em. I don’t care who buys them or why they buy them, and it’s illegal for me to even ask.

Because it's not a mutual fund. That's the dumbest analogy I've ever heard.

Are you aware how much time and money it cost to keep up a house? Imagine having several. This is just a stupid fucking take

🤣

It’s called professional investor… u don’t go borrow a large sum of money unless you know you have a chance of paying it back because it would destroy your life otherwise. If you don’t put work into it and just borrow to put in the market, that’s called gambling
