Never heard of boot straps eh?

Yup.  And a short training program will get you the skills necessary to operate the machinery that screws those lamp shades together.  And that job will pay a livable, albeit not comfortable, wage.

How do you expect to qualify for a well paying job if you have no education or training for the position?

I don’t think that’s a hot take. It seems like common sense that the low income service industry people would be the first to lose their jobs.

My guess is people buying a brand new Ranger right now and opting for the tune aren’t the same people qualifying for the stimulus. The income threshold is pretty low for the stimulus. 

Just use a mutual insurance company and you’ll save that 20% or more on every bill.

Needs more pictures.

I’ll take 72 months at 0% all day long.  Want to charge any amount of interest?  Then I’ll stick with my standard 36 month max; preferably 24.

I was in the middle of the interview process for a new job when this started. I had completed 2 phone interviews and they had booked flights and hotel for my wife and I to come out and see the area and for me to interview in person.  But that got canceled for the time being.  Thankfully I already have a pretty decent…

Enterprise’s car sales division is about to have a Smoking Hot Fire Sale!

It’s not to stimulate you, it’s to stimulate the economy.  Go spend it on something yo wouldn’t normally buy.  That’s the purpose of it.  To keep people spending.

I cashed out an inherited IRA last year that puts me just over the AGI limit. Dumb, I know, but it was only $10k so not worth the hassle of dealing with RMDs every year in my opinion.  I already filed for 2019.  Will that mean I get no check?  Or will that one time influx not be counted towards AGI for these…

Sidewalks are the property owner’s responsibility.  We’ve had to enforce the restriction a couple times to get people to redo their sidewalks that were decaying.  Roads are 50/50 with the city and yes we hold reserves for that.

Upkeep of the signs and flower gardens at all 5 neighborhood entrances plus upkeep of the bushes at the center of every cul-de-sac. There are over 500 homes so at $65 a year per home the surplus keeps growing. There is the occasional legal issue that needs resolved and that is what the surplus is for.  There is so…

I’m on my board too.  Our dues are only $65 a year and there is enough surplus that we could probably go several years without collecting.  We meet quarterly and it’s more of a drinking party with 5 minutes of official business at the start.

Not all HOA’s are bad.  Mine is a rare good one.  And even though we have an RV/boat in driveway restriction, there are a couple doctors living in theirs right now and the HOA is letting it pass.  Even after a few asshats complained.

$400,000 in acid?  I think someone at Big Acid has a cousin in the Senate.

I normally drive Friday nights and sometimes Saturday too in KC.  I’m staying home tonight though.  More because I don’t think it’ll be as busy as normal than because I’m afraid of getting sick.  So much has been canceled and I just don’t think many people will be out.

Coronavirus is not new and we actually know a great deal about it. This particular strain is new. Your body is no more “used to” the current strains of flu as it is to any other novel virus.

I’d say you’re probably at a higher risk due to the small city size. When it arrives it’ll less likely be caught right away and will spread more. This is due to the thinking that it won’t come to a small town and also due to the fact that tests are scarce to come by.
