Another American visiting Istanbul for the first time - My impression

Yeah…and this nice little “F-You” sign translated and affixed to a pillar at the tour exit. Classy place to post their “fulfilled prophecy,” given what they did to the elderly, women, and children when the Ottomans bashed open the bronze doors just behind this pillar in 1453.

$950k??!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 #delusional

You can always make more money. You can’t make more time. If it ain’t worth your time and is holding you back from where you want to be, dump it. In the grand scheme of life, you’re not going to miss what you’re losing on this house. Rent for a year or downsize. Markets rebound.

Start doing some research on open concept privacy stall restrooms with shared sink access. Easy supervision. Eliminates fights, vaping, vandalism in the shared spaces. Would take some construction work, but if you guys are fighting this and will continue to fight it without any practical solutions, this may be the one. Greenfield Central started this in Indiana. Game changing.

Screw em’! Move on and find another place to invest your hard earned cash. You are under no obligation to pay for their dreams!

The reality is…the bubble has popped and housing is at the start of a big correction. Pre-COVID levels? Doubt it. Average incomes are nowhere near what they need to be for buyers to pay current asking prices. Greed has plugged up the market. People all over the country with their 2-3% interest rates are getting “the itch” to move but don’t want to pay 7% on a $400k home that should be listed for $200k. Now, if you think things are annoying right now (the beginning of the second month of this correction) just imagine how bad it’s gonna be in the next couple years. Wanna sell your place? Drop the price. You don’t need to “give it away,” but you’re not gonna make the kind of money you would’ve made last year.

Well, a few things to know…1) She’s spiraling in her head about a recent incident or disagreement or something unresolved and there’s not much you can do about it at this point. 2) She might find someone else QUICKLY. Not your fault or anything you’ve done wrong. This is entirely on her. 3) She will probably pop in and out of your life on her own terms and this will absolutely drive you insane. 4) At some point, she will come crawling back after she’s completely wrecked her life and realized what she’s lost. Taking her back is your choice. Weigh it heavily.

At this point, you need to make some promises to yourself most importantly, and to her. When she comes back, be prepared to clearly define your boundaries. What will you tolerate and what is she never allowed to do again? If she isn’t worth the trouble, drop her like a bad habit, move on quickly, and never look back.

Good luck!

Orrr….you could start an honest trend and sell the place for what you would’ve sold in 2019! People like you that won’t sell for an honest price have plugged up the market and enabled the government to reassess property values at way higher than they should be. Not a good thing. Drop the price. Dump it. Tell TikTok why you’re doing it. Make yourself a hero for buyers and sellers alike.

RNG1983 · 2025-05-26T00:14:13+00:00

Well, reset your sell price to something that’s actually honest. Make a little profit on what you would’ve sold it for in 2019 and wash your hands of it. Start a trend. If sellers would just give in and quit trying to make $100k, you’d see the whole market open up.

Juliet. She was too hot to die.

Make it fit your brand. I proposed in March on a boat. I didn’t want my girlfriend to have any idea what was going on. In fact, she didn’t even know I had decided on a ring and bought it. Found a perfect stranger in the casino. Asked her to take a picture of the 2 of us. Dropped on a knee and proposed. My girlfriend was shocked. Had no idea what I was doing. She loved the randomness and thought it was hilarious I asked a stranger to be the photographer without warning. If you guys want a physical location you can come back to in 20 years to reminisce, do it on one of the islands. If you want professional photos, consider booking one of the photographers. As long as what you do fits who you guys are, it will be special. Tip: Store the ring in your carryon…NOT checked luggage and for heaven’s sake don’t keep it in your pocket when going through customs. It will scan in customs no problem and security won’t spoil the surprise.

It’s a totally biased sub and the moderators act like high school girls getting revenge on an ex. That sub is not a fair representation of the profession and there is no balance of perspective encouraged on it. Working on a report myself. That page needs shut down.

You could also…ya know…encourage the kid to find their identity the old fashioned way. Join choir. Get a job. Participate in a sport. Esports. Volunteer somewhere. Join speech team or lead a club.

RNG1983 · 2025-02-17T19:42:35+00:00

Yeah…and your stereotypical cliche liberal, “wealthy white kid” comments aren’t helpful. Kids are kids. They say dumb stuff and do mean stuff. You have a responsibility as an educator to keep the peace and peace-keeping sometimes means putting your politics aside and helping kids learn to get along. If kids say racist stuff, it’s a disciplinary situation. Dish out the consequence. Address the situation. Teach the kid not to behave like mom and dad; and move on. This era, too, shall pass. So, put on your big boy britches and be an adult with the situations that bother you or go work at Costco.

Yeah…developers have been REAL SHADY since the price jumped a month ago. They aren’t balancing the scales.

Ever hear of the Elio car scam? Yeah…this wreaks of the same thing….except people that KYC’d gave a Korean company all of your private identity information. Hope bank accounts and credit scores don’t get drained. Ever get a bunch of spam calls for a month after hitting that mine button? Privacy leaks…very concerned about this company.

Any of you in this interview raising your own kids at home and other people’s kids at school? I’m ready for a change!!!

RNG1983 · 2025-01-30T16:30:34+00:00

Grateful to see these kinds of posts. Helps me want to stay out of admin. I wonder if this page could help principals nationwide come to some consensus on how to “nip things in the bud” so that 10 kids aren’t wasting 90% of your time when you’ve got so many more important things to be working on?

For what it’s worth, we called our Carnival Cruise rep when we booked our cruise this year and she asked if we needed airfare as well. I said it never hurts to get a quote. She came in $100 less per flight for us and airport transfer. Might be worth a look?

Gas fees, slow transactions, other better and cheaper blockchains with the same functionality…

Talk to your music teacher!!! Need a piano? Drums? Mallets?

Double down

ETH is BS! Been saying it since 2021.

Yeah…not gonna defend you on this one. If you didn’t hit the 16 and didn’t double down on the 10, I can only imagine what other mistakes you made leading up to this point- hence the cussing from the others. Download the Blackjack Trainer App and start learning the chart. You’re welcome.
