There comes up the question if there are better ways to invest. The stock market doesn't bind you too a fixed sum every month and can be more profitable with less work.
Of course it would be wise to not put all your money into just one thing because if that one thing goes south, there goes your money.
Also, who would be a good renter, or good at making money from renting? From what I'm hearing, you have to be the kind of person who says "no!" to a single mom with three cute kids or "no!" to an old lady who's only companion is her dog and instead rent the place out to a bunch of college kids. Why? Because the college kids are statistically less likely to damage the place than the kids and the dog and are much more likely to be able to pay the rent than the single mom or the widow.
