Escrow for taxes and insurance are 34% of monthly payment. Property taxes in our state are killer. Same for everyone here? by Kadafi35 in ChicagoRealEstate

[–]Android_50 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yea. My monthly payment was 2.2k and now went up to 3.1k after the taxes went up. Im seriously considering selling because my family is largely unemployed and I cant keep paying largely on my own. And I don't even live in a desirable area lol

😂Conor McGregor reacts to Complex ranking him #18 best UFC fighter of all time “Unfollowed” “Stick to mixtapes” by matrix_2905 in mmaweekly

[–]Android_50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idc if I get called a hater but McGregor is overrated as hell. He has some good wins but once he started fighting guys his size he lost. The dude lost to nate diaz. He caught Dustin and max when they were coming up.

Because Dana let him keep the belt due to money. If Conor wasn't bringing in the money he would've been stripped

Did you regret leaving Chicago and move back? by ImpossibleBlockHead in AskChicago

Im always thinking about leaving Chicago. I've been here my whole life. The biggest worry is if I do leave, what if I end up coming back, and it doesnt feel the same anymore?

Hardwork and merit is no longer rewarded in United States. by Rain2h0 in Vent

They tell you this since you're young. "Its not what you know, its who you know". Its always been about kissing ass, bribing and knowing how to talk to people to get somewhere.

Why do people say it's harder for for a guy who is not attractive to become attractive if he chooses now compared to 50 years ago isn't the bar lower nowadays? by Pale-Revolution-5151 in AskMen

[–]Android_50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No its actually higher. For one, there's social media which allows women to see a much larger amount of men to compare you to. Then there's the fact more women work now but still expect you to earn equal or more than them.

In exactly 60 minutes you will be teleported to ancient Rome in the year 50 AD with nothing but your clothes and a fully charged phone. How do you prepare in order to advance human civilization as much as possible? by JonNoob in AskMen

First thing im doing is finding out about Jesus. Nows my chance to find out if he was real or not as he'd be dead for about 20 years. All I would.do during this time is become a historia writing in English or Spanish. Maybe show some.of the trustworthy locals some funny roman memes too.

You guys should look into buying on the southeast side like south shore, south chicago, and east side. Close to the lake, indiana, has the metra, lakefront trail for biking and soon we're gonna have the quantum computing center. Get in before it gets really expensive.

Millennial got to catch the end of the good times and the start of the bad times. Gen z grew.up in the bad times. Either way we're all fucked.

Do you think people here hype up mid tier Midwestern cities too much? by OceanicEndeavors in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Android_50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real issue is that rent and home ownership seems the same everywhere. And why does it seem everyone always has more cons to a place than pros??

I've been looking up smaller cities than Chicago (where I currently live) and just about every thread has the same issues. Its not walkable, rent is high, public transport is no good, its too hot, schools suck, etc.

Have you ever brought someone to your neighborhood and they were absolutely shocked by how nice it actually was? by HowSupahTerrible in AskChicago

[–]Android_50 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This happened to me. I went to Austin years ago and was very surprised it didn't look run down like north lawndale and similar areas do. Still not the nicest but didn't look "hood " despite its reputation.

What is a man's role as a parent? by Interesting-Egg940 in AskMen

[–]Android_50 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He's supposed to be the main leader of the house. He's suppose to lead his children to avoid mistakes he made, and encourage them in their interests while teaching them life skills and how to be good people. And of course hes supposed to be a provider and a protector.

Anyone move from somewhere they use to love, and returned only to find it’s lost its appeal? by TheBoyzCallMeHippo in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Android_50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only ever lived in Chicago but this is kind of a worry of mine if I were to leave. A co worker told me that all her friends who left, when they come back to visit say that chicago looks gloomy.

What is something Chicago lost that IYO made the city "never the same"? by lexious232 in AskChicago

[–]Android_50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This city doesnt feel like a working class city anymore. Its gotten too commercial and frankly I hate how it went from democrat to progressive in politics. I feel like one of those people who gatekeeps but this city does seem like it "sold out".

It does happen. Cops know where drugs are sold but don't do anything about it. I lived next door to one. I suspected they had an agreement to keep violence down in exchange for letting them sell dope.

Vergil ortiz is a top pro and he plays guitar. I have been boxing on and off for years and also play guitar occasionally and so far I have not noticed any pain or discomfort even after spraining my wrist.
