    I’m a landlord and a school bus driver and I am poor as fuck. I bought a cheap house that needed a huge amount of renovation work, and I now rent it out while I live with my elderly parents. The rental income represents about a 50% increase over my salary (assuming nothing goes seriously wrong with the house) but I still make less than $40K. Not every landlord is the guy from Monopoly.
