Actually, you want to know what I find strange...
There was a guy named Sanjay on here that you seemed to be great friends with. He was obviously a transplant to Tennessee when he bought his building as an investment, yet I don't recall you ever having a pussyfit about how rich outsiders were ruining the poverty. Why the difference of opinion now?
Apart from the fact OP doesn't want to stay there, both him and Sanjay were / are in it for the money. OP seems like a level headed guy and not a prick. Just because you all of a sudden seem to like living in a dump doesn't make the rest of us wrong for having a purpose in life.
