    Someone did say that managing 20 something houses takes 18 hours and preferred to dodge the criticism on their ludicrous claim

    I'll take the constructive criticism when it doesn't come with childish taunts, kthxbye Felicia. ;P

    I probably did way, WAY over estimate the time, yes. My mistake, however, everyone could say that without trying to insult my intelligence, mind you. Maybe, it would take 18 hours, if you have over 50+. I still, however, don't agree with you owning like 22 properties, and that'll never change. Sorry, fam.

    That's fine, I didn't come here to make new friends, I came to answer questions.

    Who are you again? Oh you're the person who believes I actually bought an FC for 100m. The irony

    I haven't seen anyone ridicule Oliver. Certainly a lot of rightfully deserved castigation though. Regardless of whether or not rules were actually broken, Oliver's actions are a tragedy of the commons. Perhaps it's my upbringing, but I've never been encouraged to take more than I need to the detriment of others, even if it was "allowed."
    Housing isn't limited by any means and I think I'm doing alright at demonstrating that. There's always someone looking to get rid of their house for a certain price or people who don't even care and let their house be demolished. Laziness is the elephant in the room.

    It is objectively incorrect to say that "housing isn't limited by any means." The ability to shuffle housing around for the right price does not change the fact that the number of plots are finite or that their number falls well short of some theoretical upper end that might make them infinite for all intents and purposes.
