I've been using http://blokada.org/ on NON-root Android with good results for all apps, not just the browser. It is just a proxy that blocks domains in the customizable blacklists. The only downsides I've seen are 1) I have to whitelist apps the need to detect if they are on mobile or wifi otherwise they cannot tell, and 2) you cannot chain/use another proxy too.

Does not M$ have a track record of getting everyone on board and then murdering everything in site. I mean it sounds good, but I don't trust M$. Maybe they have changed, but I'm not yet convinced.

He said if you are going to count the monthly rent against a renter, you have to count the value of the place to live too.

I have not looked at and do not know these companies and have no comment on these companies.
I have been involved in real estate for a long time and these thoughts only relate to commercial real estate generally, not these companies.
Where to start? I'll just fire off some thoughts as they come to mind. Real estate is a long term asset. It is complicated and everyone is different, like your apps, but long term. For example, you could make returns look better by using short term loans (where interest rates could rise). A rise in rates would expose this term structure imbalance/risk. On the other hand, single family production compared to population growth looks good (opposite of when real estate crashed in 2007 or so), so housing looks good generally (every market is different). Retail is getting crushed by Amazon, etc. Office is hard to analyze as it is expensive to replace tenants. Industrial can be made to look good by building more office space in it, but then getting crushed if that tenant leaves. Oh, and winning buyers of commercial real estate have to make the most aggressive assumptions in their models. Every buyer has basically the same information.
Good luck out there people!

Employers will just ask employees expectations.

System is probably good for 3 or 4 years, right? If your cost of funds is 6%, that works out to:
3 years: $177/month
4 years: $136/month
Add $20/month for electricity: 3 years: $197/month 4 years: $156/month
Could that rent respectable enough device(s) in the cloud?
