I bought this house for $340k. It's worth maybe 280k now after the past 7 years of housing market collapse since 2016 when it was first purchased. Then go ahead and correct that yourself for the 30% inflation or whatever since. Not to mention the opportunity cost of not putting all of that down payment and mortgage since into the stock market instead during the biggest bull market in history.

When I left the country I left the house in the hands and name of my dad as to not own foreign property while a US tax resident. My equity continues to rot since my dad neglected it and ignored me for 6 months in early 2022 of telling him to lock the mortgage rate.

Well, first, put around 10 million dollars into a high yield savings account that's performing at about 3%, then live off half the interest. It's pretty simple, I don't get why it's not taught in school.

Invest in Frankcoin, believe in yourself.

EDIT: Frankcoin leverages the power of nonexistence (the "Notchain") to ensure your investment in this exciting new conceptual currency never loses value or faces risk of theft. Just give me all your money and I'll take care of the rest. Since it won't even so much as be recorded in a ledger (I personally guarantee to never write anything down) your currency will be untraceable and immaculate. Perfect. Without form. No pain. Clean. Pure. Frankcoin.

i know your getting slammed on for other lols but honest question

isn't there a point in the tax law where they consider ongoing net losses from something to be a hobby instead of a business and then it doesn't count for poo poo? i have not done advanced tax work in like 15 years but i remember that point specifically because a lot of people thought that was the "one weird trick" thing to stick it to the g-man

Presumption of profit. An activity is presumed carried on for profit if it produced a profit

You can have NOL for 2 years, the third year is counted as a hobby.
