When you go tell your boss you want your money or you are walking you might be in the game

It's so cool that you were able to get that blackmail material on your pimp.

Gratz, worry.

Now, you are morally obligated to pursue the American Dream: sell your newly paid off home and use the money for a down-payment on an even bigger home with an even bigger mortgage.

No no no. Do the Australian thing: use the equity to get a loan to buy investment property/ies, so you can use negative gearing to essentially get the taxpayer to subsidise your contribution to driving the prices of real estate ever higher, while also keeping first home buyers from ever owning their own homes as rents increase too. The real estate bubble our economy has a sick fascination for is just a fun side effect.

This actually sounds like a very good idea!

[Tsundoku]

It's one of the main reasons why our real estate is horribly over valued, and why a lot of us will never be able to afford our own home.

They need to get rid of all the incentives for anyone who has more than X investment houses. This will force people with lots of houses to sell some, driving prices down. Yep, there would be a bit of a crash but in the end more people could have their own places instead of being renters for life, which sucks. But too much in this economy depends on the housing market and while people get filthy rich from it (notably a lot of our politicians) it's never going to be fixed. Too many vested interests.

Apologies, #firstworldproblems

I'm happy because it's the weekend after a truly shitty week.

Yeah sucks for people don't own a house already. What subsidy does the government provide for home ownership and why?

I'm investing all the money I save now into building a bunker and getting an atmospheric water generator. See you suckers on the other side!

It would be amazing if Worry and Nico turned out to be the same person.

While not quite as good as Worry, we just had our annual mortgage statement through and for the first time I feel like we're actually getting through it! Still a long way to go but it's certainly looking OK.

'Course, now I want to move to a bigger house...

PARADISE is here bitches, on 27 August 2018 - 02:51 AM, said:

So ex wife is back home as of yesterday which is the only good thing about the drama for me to find out she was back. I’m left confused in my kids actions yesterday. I’ve been asking my girl every few days if she has heard anything about her mom and she has said nope. My son always hates leaving my house to go back home and yesterday the husband was coming to get them so asked if he wanted to go and he said yes because his mom was coming back. I was silent for a second then asked really? and he said yep. Few minutes later I went to my girl and asked about it and she said no she wasn’t. Since she has been informing me saying it’s stupid that I’m in the dark about it all I figured she would tell me. Afterwards I fussed at my boy for fibbing and asked why he said that and his response was idk I just did, then he said she wasn’t really coming. Fast forward to today and I just happened to ask old man if he the husband had updated him about her and he said she came home yesterday. Like wtf?! I fused at the wrong kid. Idk why she would all of the sudden not be truthful to me. I now wonder if the ex told them not to tell me. It’s all bizarre and overly dramatic.

Atleast the pyro is home though after only 2 months.

Either someone is telling them to tell lies or people aren't being truthful to them so they're confused about what they're supposed to say. Me and my sister got caught up keeping one parents secrets from the other when we were kids and let me tell you it is stressful as fuck and usually worse for the oldest kid. Just make sure they know they can tell you anything and you won't get mad and keep them out of figuring out which adult in their lives is fucking you around.
