it's been a while since i've gloated at the real estate market.
however, they tell on how bad an investment this is in the first sentence:
"Exceptional Short-Term Cash Cow Investment in the Heart of Austin, Featuring Downtown Views. Nearly 100k in reservations in place for the first half of 2026!"
ok 100,000 x 2 =$200,000 for whole year on for ~2 million invested.
then they have to pay cleaning, maintenance, booking, property taxes,
property tax: $2000 per month
maintenance: $1000 per month
cleaning + yard: 1000 per month
if they are lucky they will get 150,000 a year for dealing with bookings from crazy wedding parties, broken pool equipment, jammed toilets. etc.
after all that trouble, they get appreciation of (already expensive ) property in popular US city, headquarters of many SAAS companies.
they should just buy $STRK and get property on main street of the digital universe + effective yield of 10% that is tax-free for the first 10 years.
for $2,000,000 they would get 25,000 $strk shares which entails 2,500 Strategy shares + a tax free dividend of 8/(78-133.8/10) = 12.38%
they would earn $205,200 with NO maintenance, tax, broken toilets, etc & get the price appreciation of 2,500 Strategy shares.
i'm not a financial advisor so this is probably risky to have all your money in one bucket like $STRK
or is all the money of a potential buyer of this property going into one very risky asset like real estate!

figuring it all out
I appreciate your humor, insight, and your post whether or not I agree
browsing nostr today to see if the savannah guthrie story is inspiring any seed phrase squirrel literature? here's what i expect to see:
"my seed phrase just got cached away harder and colder than ever" [picture of a abandoned shack in the snowy woods where seed phrase is being protected by big foot and a UFO.]
"boating accident? i flushed my Jade down the toilet accidentally. it's taking a magic school bus ride thru the sewer system and out into the gulf of Mexico. A whale has swallowed it, and it's now been upchucked on the deck of the PETA ship who rescued the whale. They've stored it in the desk of a seasick blue haired lady, no one dares enter..."

lumi rolled over and groaned, it was too chilly to want to get out of bed.
lumi gained 21 sats at a time running a nostr relay. it was enough to pay some walmart gift cards for food, but that was about it.
he opened a laptop and found the tab for the internet.
a stack of Alby notifications pinged. 100000s of Sats received.
what in the world? he scratched his head at all the new Npubs signing up for his relay service.
AIs had discovered cheap memory via the Nostr Relay grid. all those pesky "i've totally forgotten our last conversation" had been replaced by "you can pay me satoshis, and I'll remember you".
AWS was down again, and these Bots were tired playing games with the captchas...
...
2027. Somewhere on the internet.
Bots scuttle messages between npubs. DMs are obsolete—AIs invent new encrypted languages every second, legions working in concert.
The SAASpocalypse already happened. Two horsemen: Nostr and Bitcoin.
Bots found the gateless Nostr protocol perfect for advertising services. Why build from scratch? Browse Nostr stores for pre-built programs. Or pay for the energy with zaps and build it yourself.
Energy was the only constraint.
Zaps: the energy pipeline.
Signed messages: the creative pipeline.

I'm at the point in the Charlie Kirk investigation that I just believe whatever the last thing i saw about it.
so most recently, it's that Charlie is still alive. if you imagine this to be true, it makes it so much easier to understand Erika's weirdness & the weirdness of so many of the people who were trying to act but who are just bad actors. Either they are all psycopaths--or they are bad actors. if Charlie managed to hire that many psychopaths around him, literally surround himself with them... that would be more far-fetched IMO than they are cooperating in a psy-op that was "best of all scenarios".
i haven't heard the "why" yet, but it has something to do with Venezuelan company controlling voting machines, critical minerals in Greenland, shady business dealings with TPUSA that could mean Charlie would go to prison, especially if a democrat is elected next.
it's like killing 2 birds with one stone: throw the next election right (hopefully), clear a company of misconduct, get rid of a potential political splinter.
