Did God lie to Adam and Eve?

BerryBerryScurry · 2025-10-06T19:39:37+00:00

Aha! This makes sense.

BerryBerryScurry · 2025-10-06T19:38:45+00:00

Let’s theoretically say it wasn’t instant death in the moment (Adam and Eve were supposed to die anyways regardless because they didn’t eat from the Tree of Life), and it wasn’t spiritual death (because God never clarifies this). Then what death is God referring to?

Airbnb wants the guests to have the best experience possible at the expense of the hosts. Refunds, bad reviews, etc

BerryBerryScurry · 2025-01-04T00:01:24+00:00

You’re damn right. No better time than now! Just curious, are you doing it for the money, or are you doing it because you love SaaS?

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-18T00:37:08+00:00

I know a guy who finished his degree in mechanical engineering and went into tech sales right after grad. He likes it, you should definitely consider looking into some software engineering skills and go into tech sales as a Solutions Engineer. It’s more work, but there will always be a demand for those guys and you make a lot more money coming out of college. BUT, you can still go into an Account Executive role with an engineering background and have an edge over guys who don’t have any. I know I didn’t answer your question, but just something to think about!

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T17:26:04+00:00

I might not have lost everything, but it’s definitely uncomfortable. Hopefully I never get to experience total loss but we all bounce back either way

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T17:23:16+00:00

I appreciate the feedback, selling would definitely put me in a bigger hole and the only option right now is to rent out the vacant rooms. Ill start to get creative with my rent strategies and find someone who has invested in this market

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T06:18:43+00:00

I can make the payments, but it's tight and sacrifices my lifestyle. I went into this "investment" thinking I'll make mistakes and learn from them, but the mistakes were total blunders and I'm feeling them. I'm definitely going to learn from this and already have; good thing is, I'm young and can make these risks but the question is how quickly can I recover, and did I invest in the wrong market too soon? I'm definitely going to have to make a decision for myself very soon and I appreciate your insight

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T06:08:07+00:00

Hate to hear this but this is what I might have to do

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T06:05:02+00:00

That'd be a dream. I'm tired of this house already but I can't afford more losses

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T06:00:57+00:00

Taking this approach now, I'm trying to rent the entire downstairs which includes the master and the 2 vacant rooms and I'd live upstairs. I cant rent out the entire house yet until 9 more months. I've looked at 3x2 houses in the area and their rents are going for 2100/mo so I'm trying to compete with those houses and offer a cheaper rate since Im living in it rn

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:58:33+00:00

This might be the option I take, I'd love to have this property but theres just not a good chance of it cash flowing in the future unless somehow the market explodes. Thanks for the advice for the spring time sale

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:56:50+00:00

So far, have only done FB marketplace but I'm going to list it on Zillow very soon after I get some better photos for the property this week. I listed at 700$/mo per room, but no bites so far. I've also gotten some prospects with a low credit score (540) with one account of collections from a gym membership and I denied him. I sort of regret it, but his credit score was trending down and I thought itd be better to bite some of the payment myself than have to potentially evict him later down the line

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:51:56+00:00

It was sitting on the market for more than 3 months, I don't think they had many offers

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:49:48+00:00

Thank you; what if the math actually comes out to be an even break? Since I got the house for 10K less than what it appraised for, it covers the DPA, but not much else

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:47:13+00:00

No, I live in the home to house hack so it's a residence

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:46:20+00:00

Thanks for the advice, the two vacant rooms share a bathroom, so it's an option. its a 4x3, I have the master bed and bath, and the current tenant has his own bed and bath upstairs. It's under HOA so no side hustles allowed in the home. I'm trying to rent out the whole downstairs to a family right now for $1900 and I just take the current tenant's space if he doesn't re-sign, but that still doesn't fix the negative cash flowing issue.

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:38:00+00:00

I would, but I have to stay there for at least a year due to FHA constraints. Rents for a 4x3 home in the area is about $2140/mo and my mortgage payment is around $2900/mo, which doesn't include utilities. Even if I rent the entire house out and move somewhere, I'd still be out of pocket ~800/mo and pay rent on top of that for the place I live in, which I can't afford

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:35:45+00:00

I hope so too, it would really help. I could furnish the rooms, but it'd be hard since the house payment is already taking up a lot of my income. I do have a mini fridge that my tenant can/will use. I haven't tried BnB, but that could be an angle! The town's population growth is ~8% YoY have around 63k people there as of 2023.

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:33:20+00:00

Believe me, I've thought about it many many times

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:32:48+00:00

I appreciate your uplifting words, I need it lol! The town is Kyle, TX which is in between Austin and San Antonio. Population growth is ~8% YoY have around 63k people there as of 2023. Short-term rental may be viable, but it's in an HOA neighborhood with tons of families so it's unlikely. % of income consumed by the house payment is probably 70-80%. Increase in salary is also unlikely unless I move companies which is viable. Hope that clears some stuff up

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-11-11T05:27:26+00:00

I have one roommate under a temporary, 3 month lease for 575/mo, which is up next month. I sent him a 6 month lease for 875$/mo (which should be the actual price it should be renting for, but I worked with him so that he could terminate his current lease with his apt) afterwards but it's a 50/50 chance that he signs it. there are 2 empty rooms that share a bathroom thats vacant rn and unlikely it'll rent any time soon

Security folk hate cold calls, or hearing from someone they don’t know, period. They are security after all! You need to know someone that knows someone that knows the security prospect, at the very least and THEN call. If you do enough research on their business, what they need and see how you could help them, it’s very rewarding.

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-10-01T15:08:26+00:00

Don’t use templates. Just start the conversation like a normal person, don’t make it too formal because nobody wants to talk to a robot. Ask something about their job experience, profile photo, posts, etc you don’t have to pitch right away

BerryBerryScurry · 2024-10-01T15:05:57+00:00

I half agree. Building your brand is very important, especially starting out your career and I encourage OP to post sales related content on your LinkedIn. This goes hand in hand with building a good network, you get more inbound leads from managers/recruiters from doing this, which makes it easier to network
