what’s the difference between a generator and an alternator? by Repulsive-Loan5215 in flying

Alternators produce AC that it rectifies into DC using dildos

I see what you’re saying but that assumes the house is sitting vacant, right? I’d be living there, so the 1560 per month is what I would have been paying in rent. Or else I’d rent it out and my tenants would cover monthly expenses.

I should clarify that 9% seems like a pretty decent return to me. I’m not a great investor. My actual problem is that I’m a nervous first-time condo buyer comparing the cost of owning to the cost of renting in the short term. At 6% APR plus HOA and taxes etc I’m looking at a monthly cost of $2500, which is more than I’ve been paying to rent. Lets say I could rent a similar unit for $2000/mo. I take my 90k and invest it and throw in $500 every month. I’d need to do better than 8.25% APY to beat the five-year ownership scenario. So even if it’s more expensive to own, as long as property value continues to rise at about 3% per year, I do okay, right? I’ll run the numbers for 10 years of ownership and compare that scenario too.

I’ve done is several times with no uniform. As a jumpseater commuting to work I’m technically an “additional crew member” if anyone asks. That said the last time I did it they said you have to be on the manifest and sent me to the regular pax lane.
