That's not true in the long term. For example if you buy a house and then rent it, you will eventually earn back the cost of buying it, unless there is some kind of disaster in the market. Stocks are really no different.

The quality of tenant is also somewhat based in luck. If they are a pain in the ass then the time lost may outweigh the cash gained.

Given that certain opinions are very unpopular around here, why should I be forced to use my primary account to post on political topics?

If you look through the comment history of this account, I think you'll find that the posts are all very civil.
