But Who Will Squat the Squatters?

California handyman proves not all is lost. April 03, 2024 [WEBSITE]( | [UNSUBSCRIBE]( By exploiting a loophole in the law, Shelton has discovered that he can remove squatters from properties by becoming a squatter himself. But Who Will Squat the Squatters? CHRIS CAMPBELL (Chris Campbell’s note: My mission to befriend an astronaut (more on that tomorrow) requires me to be off-grid for a few days. Ergo, I am writing this for your eyes only ahead of time. If you don’t hear from me by April 11 -- Thursday of next week -- call the press. Something has gone awry.) Dear Reader, Before I ventured off in The Tank to witness the eclipse in Texas, I saw a comedy skit about squatters. Though hilarious… It did make me realize that “The Squatter” is now an American archetype -- joining the ranks of the Florida Men ("Florida Man Steals Police Car with Officers Still Inside"), Prosperity Gospel Preachers, Vegan Crossfitters, Carnivore Pacifists, Pretentious Coastal Elites, and Deplorable Memelords. I have to ask: What would you do if a stranger came into your home and said, “Hey, I live here now. This place is mine.” As you probably know… Hundreds, maybe thousands, of Americans are dealing with that exact problem. And, here’s the thing: Contrary to popular belief, most squatters are not homeless (see: unhoused) individuals seeking shelter, but rather opportunistic individuals (i.e. criminals) exploiting laws that were never intended to allow the takeover of residential properties. At least, that’s according to a California handyman named Flash Shelton. He should know: Flash Squats the Squatters In a bizarre twist on the growing trend of squatters illegally -- but somehow legally? -- occupying vacant homes, a California handyman named Flash Shelton found a creative solution to the problem. By exploiting a loophole in the law, Shelton discovered he can remove squatters from properties by becoming a squatter himself. He can squat the squatters! As he told the press: “I can basically become a tenant and live with them until they choose to leave.” Shelton's unconventional approach began when his mother's vacant house, which she was trying to sell following his father's passing, was taken over by squatters. Faced with the challenge of removing the unwanted occupants, Shelton probed through the legal system and found that squatters had certain rights that made it difficult for property owners to evict them. BUT… tenants have even more rights. So Shelton devised a plan. He created a lease agreement with his mother, making him a legal tenant of the property. Armed with this document and the knowledge that tenants have more rights than squatters under the law, Shelton moved into the house, changed the locks, installed security cameras, and set up an alarm system. Confronting the squatters directly, Shelton informed them of the new circumstances and gave them a day to remove their belongings from the property. Surprisingly, the squatters were relatively cooperative, with one woman acknowledging that she had no choice but to comply with Shelton's demands. The squatters were officially squatted. Apparently, Shelton now provides this service for a fee. The free market provides. “90 will be the new 40” because of THIS “Sometime in the next 10 years, we think you're going to be able to... reboot yourself, so that... 90 will be the new 40.” – Newsweek According to this new presentation… This will be the greatest medical breakthrough in human HISTORY.

Firstly, just as Shelton took steps to protect his mother's property from unauthorized occupation, investors must safeguard their portfolios against unexpected risks. This means diversifying your investments, setting stop-loss orders (when applicable), and staying informed about market trends and potential threats. Secondly, Shelton's unconventional solution to the squatter problem reveals the importance of thinking outside the box when faced with complex investment challenges. In the fast-paced and ever-changing world of investing, those who can find creative solutions to emerging issues are more likely to succeed. This may involve exploring new investment strategies, considering alternative assets, or leveraging innovative technologies. (All things we do here at Paradigm Press, of course.) Finally, Shelton's story underscores the need for investors to be prepared to adapt to changing circumstances. The markets are increasingly volatile, and that’s not going to stop. Investors must be ready to adjust their strategies in response to unforeseen events or market shifts. This requires staying informed, maintaining a long-term perspective, and being willing to make tough decisions when necessary.
