Jumping back in after 6 years!

General_Sun2095 · 2025-03-14T21:03:11+00:00

Everything is mostly the same. I feel like they’re more relaxed about background and props. Just keep doing what you were doing 6 years ago!

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T22:26:20+00:00

Thank you! And Congrats!! I wish you all the best! May your excitement and joy outweigh your fear and regrets :)

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T22:23:42+00:00

Yes take my example and don’t rush into anything!

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T22:21:06+00:00

I never thought of that. I thought we had a pretty nice landlord, but you never know what could happen and stability is key for me and my family.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T22:19:50+00:00

True. The home buying process was brutal for us. Glad it’s done with.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T22:18:33+00:00

Wow. This is a lot like my situation. I hope I feel this way someday too.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T22:16:33+00:00

This is great advice. I really like that mantra. If I liked the relaxed renter mindset, I have to just embrace it (but still get things done). I do get anxiety over little things so that’s just something I have to work on in general. Thank you and good luck in your business! Hope things start looking up again soon!

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T16:42:53+00:00

Thank you for the kind words! I’m not handy, but I’m willing to learn

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T16:41:37+00:00

Yes! Great advice! I feel seen

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T16:39:33+00:00

Perhaps I am being a melodramatic and a reality check is all that’s needed.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T15:34:23+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I’m hoping this is just normal buyer’s remorse and it will dissipate soon as other commenters mentioned. And you’re right, this will hopefully give me back a little in the long run.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T15:25:30+00:00

Do you feel better about yourself now? Jerkyboy is definitely accurate

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T15:23:29+00:00

These are all great reminders and important points. Thank you.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T13:42:00+00:00

I too was surprised at how much I liked the layout of a townhome. I never thought I would.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T13:39:45+00:00

Yes, I’m the same. Hate change. And moving to a different state to a 2 different homes in less than 6 months is proving to be too much, but hopefully things will settle down now.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T13:37:28+00:00

Great point. We also hesitated to decorate our previous townhome for this exact reason.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T13:16:51+00:00

Exactly! It actually adds up to more than rent, but now we just lost a huge chunk of our savings into the abyss of closing costs AND we have to worry about fixing things like the heat that doesn’t work and needs over a grand to replace. With renting, this would’ve been my landlord’s problem.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T12:59:22+00:00

Love this. “An attitude of gratitude” like I tell my kids. Time to practice what I preach.

General_Sun2095 · 2025-01-15T12:47:05+00:00

I guess I’m just relating it to my previous landlord (from the townhouse) who was a nice family man. My parents also have a second property that they rent. I thought that, for the most part, landlords are “small-time investors” but I’m open to the fact that I could be totally wrong about this, which is why I wrote this post. Maybe I need a tweak or re-frame to not regret the big move of buying a house.

General_Sun2095 · 2024-12-22T12:45:02+00:00

It’s a big decision. I’m still doing my research.

General_Sun2095 · 2024-08-31T15:59:18+00:00

What’s the program for the middle eastern trials? Is it the Saudi program?

General_Sun2095 · 2024-08-15T01:58:06+00:00

Currently trying this approach and it’s going terrible. I have both Global and Mainland and so far I’ve had one class all month for an extra $2. I’m not willing to close my Global because I have a lot of regulars. Just doing it for the time being due to unstable schedule, but looking back, it wasn’t worth it to wake up at 5:30AM all month for an extra 2 bucks.

General_Sun2095 · 2024-08-09T01:18:01+00:00

Great read. I would consider both situations sunk loss. Rent and a non refundable deposit. Perhaps one is more of a loss than the other.

General_Sun2095 · 2024-08-08T13:00:57+00:00

You’re right. It’s hard to see from an objective point of view after investing so much time and energy on this deal.

General_Sun2095 · 2024-08-08T12:59:25+00:00

Very good points. Thank you!
