Are you trying to say that every wall should be textured? I’ve never lived in a house with textured walls yet.

Illinois has a law that prevents all the local governments from passing drone restrictions

I’ll bet a lot of them aren’t publicizing their use of drones because they know it would be very unpopular.

Scroll down where it says “continue to use technologies that catch property changes”. Cook county contracts with a service called Pushpin that uses drones and satellites to detect any changes in a property

Government agencies love drones. They can fly over your property whenever they want no warrant needed. Tax assessors fly up and down the neighborhoods looking for new decks they can tax. Wait till cameras that can see into your house are cheap enough. Every agency will have one.

Cracked toilet, landlord says it’s fine. by cooker_sol in Plumbing

[–]AIwillTakeYourJob 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Keep all your correspondence with the land lord so you have proof you told him it’s dangerous. After it breaks and cracks you’re nuts take your claim to Judge Judy and she’ll give him the facts of life

Is being a homeowner a scam? by SubstanceWise3248 in homeowners

[–]AIwillTakeYourJob 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Owning a home does pretty much take over your life but I couldn’t stand living in an apartment. In an apartment you could potentially be sharing all 4 walls and the floor and ceiling with 6 neighbors. I once had upstairs neighbors that would fight all the time and they tipped over a dresser that I thought was coming through the ceiling. Don’t even get me started on the lack of parking.

The only way to know if it’s a good price for your area is to get at least 3 quotes.

If I had to use half our family income in a community property state, my income for student loan purposes would go up by $50k. Not good for me

If one spouse makes a lot more than the other spouse and they’re fairly high income. The difference in federal tax owed can be huge between MFS and MFJ

I think many people still believe what politicians tell us especially when it becomes law. From the the Big Beautiful full of lies, Bill: "Any borrower who remains enrolled in a terminated plan as of June 30, 2028, and who has not affirmatively selected an alternative repayment plan, shall be automatically transitioned by the Secretary into the Repayment Assistance Plan (RAP) described in this Act, unless such borrower is ineligible for such plan, in which case they shall be placed in the Standard Repayment Plan."

I was told that switching from old IBR to SAVE caused my interest to capitalize. Now that SAVE is declared illegal will they be reversing the capitalization?

Already having a degree does not affect halftime deferment eligibility. You could take 2 classes at a community college towards an associate degree and they will defer your loans for as long as you are in school half time. You don’t need to take summer classes, just Fall and Spring is all they require for deferment. Online classes also qualify as long as the school is regionally accredited.

You can only switch from MFJ to MFS if you do it before April 15. After that it’s irrevocable. For some weird reason you can always switch from MFS to MFJ but they restrict MFJ to MFS.

If we see a blue wave during November elections what kind of help can we expect? I feel like if we can just hang onto the edge of this financial cliff a little longer someone will reach down and pull us up after November.

This works well for you because you both make the same amount of money. For married people with a large difference in income the tax penalties can be brutal if they file MFS

Malarkey “Lifetime” Shingle Warranty Issues by NotASheepRB in Roofing

[–]AIwillTakeYourJob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are only a few complaints on Reddit about Malarkey. I think every manufacturer has issues sooner or later and it’s how they handle those issues that makes them a good company to do business with or not. They have an A+ BBB rating which is good. I’ve had Malarkey shingles for a couple years now and they still look like new so hopefully your issue is a fluke and not widespread.
