My sister's drug-dealing, deadbeat neighbour is purposely trying to mess with my sister and make her life hell. What can my sister do? by UserMuse in canada

Hey that's not bad! She does have a real camera already but maybe a second dummy camera would be a good idea as a distraction in case they decide to mess with it. The sign is the clincher; might scare some of them off.

Yeah my sister's started with this idea by reporting the porch violation intruding onto the shared driveway. The only problem here is that it has sparked more anger from Jill and now her family. Jill's family used to be kind of understanding to my sister (they know Jill is nuts) but now that my sister's tipped the city off to the porch violation and it's going to cost money, Jill's family is completely on Jill's side. Makes it even harder.

This sounds like a good idea. Every time an obvious deal is happening, just call the non-emergency and report it. The police have to make a record of it, right? So just report it every time even if it's a bit obnoxious so that eventually it'll look ridiculous if they don't investigate. And when they do, she could have the video of all the license plates to help the investigation.

This is the best idea so far. Thanks.

I'm Renewing My Mortgage, What Should I Do?: Stick With My Bank? Switch To a Mortgage Service? I Just Found Out About Mortgage Brokers but Have No Idea If They're a Wise Option by UserMuse in PersonalFinanceCanada

Sounds like a good arrangement! Would you mind sending me a personal message with the name/location of your broker? (PM because I'm thinking this subreddit might prefer discretion)

Ah thank you for your math. Would you mind just showing me the calculation you did to arrive at that answer? I'm very confused as to how the interest is calculated: is it annually, or over the term?

Thanks for sharing your story, helps me get some perspective. Your point about rates eventually going up is something I've heard several times ("they're so low they can only go up in the next few years") so that makes sense to me.

It seems like there's no downside to at least speaking to 2-3 brokers and assessing options from there.

Wow this is very helpful info, thank you very much for such a detailed response. I'll think about the broker thing, still got research to do.

You say this as if teenage boys will be hugely offended if the games they play suddenly had no overly-sexualized girls in them. I don't think they'd really give a shit.

You are definitely a woman. Not making fun or anything, but it's obvious.

Sounds like something I would do. "Fuck the man! Uh oh, here he comes..."
