0:00.0 | An entitled greedy landlord tries to force my friend out of their house by raising the asking price |
0:05.2 | by nearly $80,000, essentially pricing my friends out completely and risking them with the |
0:10.6 | possibility of being homeless. So I banded together with my friends and I decided to get some |
0:15.5 | revenge as we sabotaged every single attempt these owners made at trying to sell this place. |
0:20.7 | And as a result, my friends were able to sell this place. And as a result, |
0:21.8 | my friends were able to buy this place for a far cheaper price than what these greedy jerks were |

1:05.6 | was a nice old lady who was extremely wealthy and very fond of my friend. She froze the rent for five years and promised to |
1:12.8 | let them buy the house once they had saved enough to get a loan from the bank. Now, as she had |
1:17.2 | helped other people in a similar way, they knew that they could trust her, and so they saved |
1:21.4 | every cent that they could. It took them five years, but they finally told her that they were ready. |
1:26.1 | But unfortunately, two days later, |
1:27.9 | the nice old lady passed away, quite literally before anything was put in writing. Well, this is where |
