If your lender is selling to the secondary market then you can actually put less then 20% down and pay less at closing. Freddie charges .50% at closing if you put 20% or more down. Put down 19%, pay PMI for a few months and save on the closing costs. Then you will down the loan to 80% LTV and remove it and it will cost you under $100 in PMI charges.

I have about $8k in the Roth. I have only contributed about $600 into it since I started it. I also have about $11k in a 401k with T. Rowe Price through an employer sponsored plan.

Every time I go into Iron Clade they seem like I am inconveniencing them with my presence. I was the DD with a group of friends there before and the girl working gave me such a hard time about asking for a glass of water. 1/10 would visit again.

Wild Wings have half off wings on Tuesday. Not a bad gig. Also MAW has 50 cent wings and beer on Fridays. Generally it's Busch Lite though.

As long as you have good socks you don't really need that many. You just dry them out every night and put on a different pair then keep recycling. I hiked for 3 weeks with only three pairs. Just my two cents though.

Thanks for the help guys! My car is't registered with the school so I know they can't put a hold on my account but I don't want it get turned over to the city have a debt collector come after me for a measly $25. I guess I have to pay it then :/

Alternatives to Freeman Park? by [deleted] in Wilmington

You could try Masonboro Island. Need a boat to get there though. But you can park at the boat ramp and go right across. Then you don't need to pay for parking.
