You’re singing my song. The freedom of my single life is my greatest joy and achievement. I’m also self employed and it’s the best. I up and fired one my clients mid-meeting recently. He’s a dictatorial, condescending jerk (and an idiot). You should have seen his face when I said I wouldn’t work for him anymore. He…

“Live close. Visit often.” If I ever am in a relationship again, this will be the law. No one will ever live with me again.

every woman should have “fuck you” money so that she can leave someone at a moment’s notice and be okay.

I have mixed feelings about owning as well. It’s affordable and mostly I like it. But I need to patch my living room so I can paint it and I’m just not feeling it. And I’m trying to get a mason to fix my front steps/stoop and I can’t get one to call me back.

Amen to that. Independence is an incredible thing.

Amen. I bought my first house in 2008 because I was tired of putting my landlord’s kids through private school. Later, I sold that house to move far away with the guy I thought I was going to marry. I could never shake the feeling that I lived in HIS house; he didn’t lord it over me, but my inner Beyonce just felt…

I love this, and I’m one of these singles ladies who dreamed of buying a house and made it happen after a lot of years. And I did it with the emotional support and advice of a group of ladies behind me.

A lot of first time home owners think of houses as easy no-lose investments. Many 1st time home owners who likely put 10% down get rude awakenings when a job offer comes up 18 months later or life happens and they have to move. Try paying two mortgages for a year, or as you mention, finding out the market softened and…

It wasn’t just about supporting myself. If I was dissatisfied with the men I dated, I could walk away.

I think you’re right on a few fronts. A lot of pay gap research has shown that at younger ages, pay gap is under 5%. Where the pay gap really exists is once motherhood hits. What has emerged is that when women have a child, their pay stagnates or declines. Childless women tend to stay more on par salary-wise (but not…

Bravo, Miss! Please join us for tea. And yarn crafts.

Youre paying for all that equity in taxes, maintenance, upkeep, and improvements. Its no different from sticking that money in the bank, or better yet an index fund. Me? Renting all the way. When my fridge breaks I dial a number and I have a new one the next day without spending a dollar. I dont want the hassel. But…

That is assuming you make money from the sale, which is not a solid assumption. The person I bought my condo from lost about 20K on the sale.

That was a looooong time ago -- she apologised four years ago. Also, her step-father is from India. No need to stir the pot.

Exactly how high are you right now?

I thought this was her in a mirror and was confused by perspective wowee

Is that a picture of two different people?
