"Also, do you want to be a landlord? Because there’s the tenant on the 3rd floor to think about," the realtor asked.
Steve considered. He didn’t really need the extra income from the renter—decades of back pay plus interest plus what Sam called the Army’s “sorry we thought you were dead” money and his pay from SHIELD (before SHIELD fell, of course)—had essentially made him wealthy enough that he could give money to several charities (which he did, anonymously) and still have enough money to live comfortably. And he also didn’t want to turn out a guy who, like Steve, just wanted a place to live. “I don’t mind the guy on the 3rd floor, but I think I’ll keep the first and second floors for me for now.”
