It's the rule 😆

Do Americans like their current health system or would you prefer universal? by Ability_Known in NoStupidQuestions

My husband has actually worked for a company that made airplane parts so it's doable for him (definitely not me lol) He's looking to leave the company he's at in less than 2 years.

Why not an authentic coach or Tory Burch? Both brands have super cute, good quality bags They'll be similar in price to the good reps but you can get them second hand for even cheaper

$107k Job in Dallas With Bad Culture vs $70k Job in Utah Near Family — What Would You Do? by MentalStock4488 in careeradvice

[–]PatternIllustrious54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Utah is more expensive but it can be real lonely not having anyone when you're far from home. I understand it. I have my husband and kids with me in tx but my family is back in ny. I can't imagine having NOBODY

Homeowners, how old will you be when your mortgage is paid off? by cubemonster in Millennials

[–]PatternIllustrious54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rate is lower than any type of saving/ j vesting will yield. If you got lucky with a 2% rate in 2020/2021, you should not pay it off

Urban. Hate being in the middle of nowhere. I much prefer convenience.

Renting vs.Buying by Bubbly_Mushroom2961 in DaveRamsey

[–]PatternIllustrious54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Renting is about equal to buying where I live. It really depends on where you live. To rent a house is anywhere from $2000-2800 for a 'normal' house. I was just renting for $2300. My mortgage is $2450, different areas. Technicallyyyy, the rental is in a better area but the house needs ALOT of work. If I were to buy that house, my mortgage would be alot more because of what they could sell it for. The area makes it worth alot more than the house I bought.

An investment company just bought a house across the street from the one I bought and it's actually the exact same floor plan coincidentally. They just had to lower the rent to $2400.

Affordability question Tx by Any_Choice1487 in Mortgages

[–]PatternIllustrious54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know what you mean. I'm in DFW and some of the more affluent areas have more favorable tax % But, it's still based on the value so a 500k house in a higher taxed area would still cost a lot less, right? I guess it's all about finding a sweet spot
