What would you have done?

I know i am going to be down voted but here goes.
You didn't want to sell your home to a family who could have really used it, instead you wanted to keep it and make money off someone for 7 whole years.
You are keeping property you don't need whilst talking about how you help people to get their own home, seems like a poor justification to me.
This feels like a win win? If we had sold, it’d probably be an AirBnB now. How does this make me shit?
You don't know that it would have become an air bnb, you are just using whataboutism to make yourself look better by comparison. And if it did that's not on you, but trying to justify renting additional properties by saying you "saved it" from becoming an air bnb instead is so shitty. Like wow you saved the house from being used in that way here is your rental payment.
You aren't saving people money by taking rental payments, you aren't a hero for potentially stopping someone from using the property as an airbnb, you are a landlord.
I mean I guess I could have left it empty while I myself rented from someone? I don’t see how that’d make me a better person though.
I’m not really buying your argument. You’re not making any real argument of how I hurt anyone or even caused a net negative on society. You’re speculating that because I didn’t hand the house to someone “who needed it”, that I somehow did wrong. I didn’t price gouge. I didn’t raise the rent. I repair things in a timely manner. The renter pays less than they would if they bought the house, aren’t responsible for anything major, and can leave at just about anytime. Seems like a net positive in my book? Sure, they paid me… but am I supposed to give it away for free? Selling it probably would have landed me more money. Are you pitching a world where everyone has to lock in to a 30 year loan and be stuck there? Or is this an argument where housing should be free or something? (Sure, whatever… but that’s a different topic)

I don’t think I’m a hero. I do think I’m saving them money. They could have foregone a rental and bought a house. They chose not to to save money for a business.

Are those all drugs? I thought they were just clothes in those vacuum pack space saver things until I saw the one with weed.
Edit: Oh I guess it's all weed, just some of the packaging isn't totally see through.
This is oregano.

Don't do it, they can count the bags.

15lbs of incense
Yes, that's the number you report.

What would I do? Contemplate where the fuck I went so ethically wrong in my life that I became a landlord, that's what.

I mean, you'll need to test one bag just to confirm what it is right?

Maybe quarter pounds. Still tens of thousands of dollars in a legal state.
Usually (at least in Britain) they'd be packaged into 9 ounce bags (otherwise known as a 9 bar) for distribution to dealers. It's sold by the kg on the international market and ounces on the British market and 9 Oz is approximately 250g so it's a handy way to convert from metric to imperial when selling to dealers.

Undesirable location
Undesirable location
In many places, that just doesn’t exist. Places like most of Canada, where people are paying 60-80% of their income just to put a roof over their head. If a place is on the rental market, it will likely have people fighting tooth-and-nail over it even if it’s been condemned and it’s being illegally rented out.

Doesn't Canada have a shitload of uninhabited wilderness?

Yup. Problem is, not too many people can effectively live hundreds of kilometres away from their jobs. And not many people want a 2-4hr daily commute. And anything that has electricity and water to the lot is already being snapped up by “investors” looking to flip the thing for a massive profit.
We have a really big problem with a lack of effective restraints on the asset-owning Parasite Class

like the other person said, concentrates. That's why concentrates are so big in the cannabis market, fresh flower doesn't keep very long or sell at the kind of volume that edibles or pens made from concentrates do
Dried flower stays good for a VERY long time. I myself found some forgotten buds in those plastic orbit containers. Was few years old, still tasted and felt like fresh

It just weed u dumb fucking cop lmao
It could be a serious criminal organization that breaks into other people's properties to store something illegal that could get you, the landlord, jailed, not even talking about other things like violence. This isn't your friend growing a bud and sharing it with others, this shit looks morally uncomfortable.

Thats pretty interesting, does Britain use ounces generally? I thought that was a US thing.

The drug trade is American, they also use pints for beer though

No, the drug trade is truly international. You can't buy an 1/8 in the Netherlands for example. But dealers will always use whatever unit their clientele is comfortable with. But, dealers in the states also use the metric system if they're buying from places like Mexico or Colombia.
The United States consumes a lot of drugs but there's almost no export from the USA to anywhere except possibly Canada.

Until 1971 our currency was not decimal. Britain has undergone an extremely lengthy process of metrication that lasted from the 60s to the 90s and to this day people still use imperial units for measuring driving distance, beer and cider, body weight/height, horse height. It should be pointed out that imperial units are not the same as American units.
