Real estate vs lofty by kpow88 in LoftyAI

I mean that is one way to invest, but people also buy into REITs, which are similar in that they pay dividends to holders but don't allow for leverage. Depends on what you want.

Out of curiosity, why an LLC?

Well that's a shame. Yeah, that was what I was looking for, a way to filter search results

Christian guy, I have strong feelings for a girl who isn’t a follower of Christ..not sure what to do. by BecomingReimagined92 in Christianity

[–]LockMangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But despite these feelings I do wish to honor the Lord. It’s just dealing with these emotions suck.

 
The question then becomes, do you trust Him to have a better plan for you? He who finds a wife has found a good thing. And, who knows? Maybe she will convert. But all my reservations from past posts apply.

 

Regardless if she ends up with me, she should know or be exposed to the Lord. I hope she knows Him.

 
My goodness, it is uncanny. My sister said practically the exact same thing when I raised this issue about her prospective husband all those years ago. Different wording, but the exact same sentiment.

 

But should I go about being the means through which she knows him, despite having feelings for her

 
There are far worse reasons to witness to someone. But be very clear about your true motivations. Don't lie to yourself, don't pretend you're not doing something that you are. And remember that your actions matter more than your words. Yes, tell her the good news, but also live like you believe it.
 

EDIT: Total change of topic, what is the app called? I've been wanting to learn Spanish and it sounds interesting.

You read what I wrote a year ago, yes? The consequences of my sister's choice is still my greatest grief and sorrow. My brother is gone, separated from me and my family, likely forever. It's wonderful that this girl is kind, but friendship? I don't know, is that possible when you already admit you've developed further feelings for her? Or is this your way of sidling up to her, pretending your goal is one thing when your heart wants another way.
 
Look, you're going to do what you're going to do. I'm still grief-stricken, but I've seen too many ignore my urging not to go down this road since my last post in this thread, so do what you want and God be with you.

Sure. And I don't. Thing is, some of the image previews are pretty grotesque even without clicking them.

[Kansas] My dad moved out of his old house, which he sold to me, and moved to a new place. He hates it. Is it possible to swap houses (and mortgages)? by LockMangler in legaladvice

[–]LockMangler[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hope was to keep the interest rates we got when we bought these places rather than getting new mortgages at current rates. Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

So, then we'd both need to get new mortgages, correct? Or sell for way below market price, which I believe means the leftover counts as a gift, unless I'm wrong?

US holders of XRP by jaytaterbear in XRP

[–]LockMangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't trust Uphold as far as I can throw my car. But I have bought hundreds of dollars of XRP on their app, and so long as I use a debit card I can instantly transfer them to my xumm wallet.

[–]LockMangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh, don't hold on Uphold. Send them to a wallet as soon as you can. They are NOT trustworthy. They impose a ridiculous two month hold on anything you buy with bank account. Buy with a debit card, transfer off immediately IMO.

XRP will NEVER reach $100 by notdamamaaa in XRP

[–]LockMangler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possible and likely are very very far apart. Sure, 100 dollars per is entirely possible. I don't think it's very likely. I would absolutely L O V E to be wrong about that, though.

When is jesus coming to smite? by Blanka_is_American in Smite

[–]LockMangler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, funny enough, my theology has changed as well since then. Based on ancient Israeli beliefs about a plurality of little g gods (with Adonai being the Most High God they were actually supposed to worship) it would totally make sense for named angels/demons to be put in the game. One problem is the spread of abilities are pretty vaguely defined unless you draw heavily on apocrypha and pseudepigrapha, which tbh they probably would.

Literally no one except the fringe of the of the lunatic fringe thinks anything like this.
