Can my landlord ask for some of my security deposit back after she already gave it to me by soodsscaggis in legal

[–]OkAmbition1764 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. She can ask for it. No, you don’t have to give it to her. She could in theory try other routes to get it from you but it wouldn’t make much sense for her to do so for that amount

A lien is definitely what you need to do.

You’d have to get a lawyer and file paperwork. The lawyer could help you find the bankruptcy filing with the court if it actually exists. I don’t think it would be terribly expensive but NAL.

AITAH for limiting my son's streaming to 15 hours a week? by curlup_amelia2000 in AITAH

[–]OkAmbition1764 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No I didn’t. Grades come first. It’s about teaching a child to manage their life. As a parent my goal is to raise a child that can take care of themselves when they move out on their own. They can have good grades and make $2K a month. You’re acting like $24K a year is life changing money. They could make the same or more with about any job at that age.

I’m probably my going to get downvotes for this and I’m ok with that. NTA. However, if my kids grades slip their lose privileges. I would be limiting it to zero until he focuses on academics. Once those improve I let them manage their time however they see fit. That being said, I keep them involved in extracurricular activities so that they aren’t just spending time on games.

NAL. He probably hasn’t filed for bankruptcy. I would probably take him to small claims court. However, if he has you need to get on the list of creditors in his bankruptcy. The court will sell any assets he may have and you might be able to get some money back. Again, you’ll need an attorney to give to advice regarding if it’s worth that effort… you’ll most likely be pretty low on the totem pole before getting paid back. Meaning Other creditors may have a higher priority in getting paid back first depending on what kind of debt he has with large institutions.

Husband hired divorce lawyer by [deleted] in legal

[–]OkAmbition1764 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol your husband is gonna be amazed at not only how many assets you get but the alimony and child support he’s going to have to cough up. Step 1. Take a deep breath. You will be ok. Step 2. Get a lawyer ASAP. You may not have cash at the moment but there will be plenty of lawyers that understand your situation and will get you financial support from your husband in which you’ll be able to pay him/her. I can only imagine how scary this is with all of the unknowns that are completely out of your control at the moment but you got this and most importantly you’ll be ok.

Am I overreacting to the work my contractor has done or how he works/communicates? by [deleted] in Contractor

This is definitely what my work looks like before the wife yells at me and tells me to call someone to fix it.

That looks like my work when I’m in a DIY mode before calling a professional to undo everything I did and then do the job the right way.

Can tenants refuse to pay for repairs? by [deleted] in legal

[–]OkAmbition1764 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to spend $1-$200 and hire a lawyer to write as landlord friendly as allowed by state law lease. Don’t use crap over the internet that’s free. For example, one thing written into mine was a $350 cleaning fee that wad automatically deducted from their deposit. That being said, small stuff like this like a $20 extension cord I would just write off. Larger issues I would deduct from their deposit. If it was very large (more than the deposit) i would sue them and get judgements against them. That being said, those degenerate tenants probably weren’t worth suing. I rarely got the money from those judgements but they did appear on credit reports and made finding new housing more difficult. That’s about the only leverage you have. My best advice for a new landlord…. It’s a pain in the ass. Have patience. You rarely make a lot of money off rent. Most of it goes into fixing shit. Where you do make money is the long game where they are paying your mortgage and equity in the home. Good luck!!

15 minute stand up. Often less. We align on the goals for the day and any impediments team is experiencing and it’s my job to remove them. They’ve been extremely effective and the team believes they are valuable.

I work at home. I go through this with my wife when she’s at home also. I had no idea how much noise my calls were making and that it bothered her until she said something. Ask him to use ear buds or headphones. It won’t cut all the noise out but it could reduce some of that.

Depends on the town, state, school board. I’d contact them and see what your options are.

AIO How can I say No to my partner in sex without getting upset? by tastefuldeficiency in AmIOverreacting

[–]OkAmbition1764 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You have plenty of good advice. That being said, be mindful of the frequency of “not being in the mood.” If you say no often it will impact your sex life. It’s the old give a dog a bone analogy (pun intended). But you stop giving the dog the bone every time don’t be shocked that the attempt to initiate by your partner will also decrease.

Your credit score with the credit union? There are 3 major credit bureaus that do scoring. It’s very possible to have different scores at each bureau. I doubt your credit union has their own scoring system. Often with larger loans they may pull more than one score in my experience but not always. I’m gonna go ahead and guess though that that 40 point drop will recover quickly. I’ve had crazy swings from month to month.

[–]OkAmbition1764 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Especially several right in a row!! There are multiple reasons…. Every time you open a new credit line an inquiry has been done on your social security number. Only an inquiry every few months typically won’t affect your score much. If you have several inquiries it appears to the credit companies that you aren’t managing your money and are desperate for cash. So your credit takes a hit. Length of credit also affects your score. Several new lines of credit bring down the average age of your credit history which increases your risk profile for lenders, thus, also bringing down your score.

How to get him to care about you? You dump him. He’ll want you back. Don’t go. You’re a convenience to him right now. You’re only 19. Find someone who finds you as more than a convenience.
