I've been good friends with the staff in the apartments I'm at for the 2 years that I've been there. Last year the renewal offer made on their online portal was $170 over my current rent. I ignored it and went to the office and without me saying anything the offer was $90 over( still 10% of then $900 ). This year the…

Buying has it's pro's and cons. If you buy it cash or get a fixed rate loan you know the price of purchasing it won't go up. You will pay for your own home insurance, property taxes, and repairs. You may have HOA fees as well.

Hear hear! I have spent a lot of time and money customizing my apartment since I need another year to save up for a house down payment. Desks, shelves, paintings, etc from IKEA too a long time to install! Now they want to raise my rent 12%!

Cool. I know the Desktop component of Omnifocus is only for the Mac, which is why I haven't tried it( PC user ). I might be getting a Mac next year, if so I will definitely try both the Mac and iPhone Omnifocus apps.

Do you put a case over your hammer to protect it's resale value?

I was giving you a chance until you informed me that you subscribe to phone contracts. There went your street cred.

keeping it in your sock drawer will also protect resell value. My point? You bought it to use and enjoy it, why compromise on that for resale value? It keeps you from getting your money's worth.

Here here. I thought omnifocus was the best, anyway?

I tried media monkey 2 years ago and it was a crasfest for me. iTunes works a lot better for me since I use Airplay for speakers and television(Apple TV) and of course nothing manages my iPhone as well as iTunes.

At Starbucks people will often use the drive through instead of going inside. I've seen it where there cars are looped around the parking lot and you go inside and there isn't anyone in line.

The stairs in the building I work in let you in from any floor above the 1st, and you can only get out on the 1st. You could go up and down after you get into the stairwell. if your just adding it to your normal routine of coming and going to work , then the stairs will only be used on your way home. Then again, I…

So I guess that you are not a bodybuilder. Nutrition before , during , and after you exercise is just as important as the exercise itself.

If its a concert or music festival, you're likely to want to dance . I've soaked my pants starting to dance with a girl with an open water bottle in my UFO pants.

This is good if you bring a girl home and change your mind. Put this ugly thing where she can see it and she'll leave in no time.

Though stole from China and Japan's playbook. Take the good part of what someone else is doing and improve on it. New isn't always better, often'new' ideas suck. I think they made great choices on the features and look in iOS7.

The 2 yr contract requirement kills the deal for me. I have a 4S and the reason I would want to upgrade is to exchange my Verzion phone to no-contract iPhone with another carrier. right now I'm looking far Straight Talk and Tmobile's Go Smart plans.

I think that this is similar to choosing to sell your own car or trade it in. Trade in's generally don't net a big return, and it's on purpose so that the dealer can make a big profit on the resale of the car. Consumers want a good deal on the vehicle, and will generally offer an amount closer to what the car/phone is…
