    I was wrong about the malice then
    and no sense of humour either

    I can shorten your sentence, just no sense seems to fit fine.

  • Are you really this daft? What is there to debate about, when you want me to lose everything, do you really expect me to see your point of view? You want me to debate with you, as to whether or not I should lose everything? Can't you see that I might tend to lean one way on that question?

    Also in one sentence you want me to lose my shirt because of my wealth, and in another sentence in the same post you state my portfolio is fantasy, if it was all fantasy then your wanting me to lose my shirt, wouldn't quite fit, would it? So which is it, I am wealthy and you don't like it, or its all fantasy, I think you need to have a chat with yourself and get your story straight.


    Lets try again as you really do not seem to be all that bright for a multi millionaire, or maybe you are just narcissistic.

    Take the word YOU and change it to LANDLORDS

    You = Landlords

    Have you got it yet?

    I could probably build up a decent picture on what I have read.

    Society does not need people like you in it, and yes we do need rental property in the UK

    But the last picture you built up of me was that I was younger than you, remember when you called me 'laddie', then you apologised because you found out I was actually older than you. You also made a point of saying that you had bought 3 houses in your life, as if it meant something, we have bought 12 properties (that doesn't particularly mean anything either). Sherlock Holmes you are definitely not.

    Why does society need you? what have you done for society (excluding family, we all do things for family)? I donate to 2 charities and have done so for about 10 years, and for over 3 years (until I got too busy) I volunteered regularly for various charities. I also captain 2 chess teams, act as competition secretary for our bowls club and work as a university lecturer, what exactly do you do for society? Full details please.

    I'm a lot brighter than you, I have no doubt about that. You even equate wealth with intelligence, how dumb is that? Are you sure that you want to go down that road, given that you are not wealthy?

    Oh I've got it alright you have made it very clear that you hate in the plural, in your mind all landlords are the same, in the same way that other people are racist and also hate people of certain races in the plural, with total disregard for their individual qualities.

    By the way I'm not offended, in fact, it is quite amusing how foolish you are now making yourself look. Please keep going, please.

    I really don't need to calm down, do you really imagine a fool like you would get me riled? In fact, I'm going to bed now, I'll respond to your next nonsense tomorrow morning.

    I wouldn't waste anymore time with him. Just state you believe you are a good individual a good landlord and try to do a good job. If he feels you are undeserving of whatever he thinks you have that's his choice and your not likely to change his mind.

    Thanks, I know that he is either just a bitter and jealous fool, a troll or perhaps he was simply drunk, and that he was trying to get a rise out of me. But all he did was show himself up, if I had done that, I’d be too embarrassed to come back, but I don’t credit him with the ability to reflect to that degree, so I expect he’ll be back for more. But I haven’t got much more time to waste on him anyway, as I’ve got lots of student coursework to mark.

    EDIT: What he hasn't successfully managed to explain yet, is why would I place any importance on what some random fool on the internet thinks about me.
