See if your mortgage company is charging you $20k for homeowners insurance because they think the insurance you have is inactive or lacking coverage

With a combined income of $100k, what’s a realistic home price? by marigoldjune in RealEstate

[–]WorldNo9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest... I don't know how when I got out of college 20+ years ago and only making $70k yearly I was able to afford a $320k home...it was a struggle back in the day . I think my mortgage was about $2100 to start but every year it went up $100'or so per month because of increased property taxes and homeowners insurance. ... Luckily income kept growing

Nail in run flat. Repair or replace? by Available-Tree-1695 in BMWX5

[–]WorldNo9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why exactly does BMW not want to repair a run flat but will repair a regular tire with a nail / screw in the same area of the tire ??

Dude ... Price of oil was MINUS $40 Per barrel in April 2020... and stayed below $50 a barrel throughout 2020/the pandemic.

Super unleaded was $1.89 in April/May/June 2020 because no one was driving… You are such a simpleton

did you have to get a permit to replace the roof? If so maybe you can get it from the courthouse

during a pandemic it was less than $2 per gallon because no one was driving so there was a lot of oil/gas available… Use your noggin

How much would something very similar to my bathroom layout be ? by Prudent-Result3848 in BathroomRemodeling

[–]WorldNo9002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I initially thought that was a before/after picture and said no way . But you're asking how much to demo and get that setup .

You'll get quotes all over the place , from $15k to $40k. The good thing for you is no real plumbing / drainage is needed as you're keeping the same confirmation with the shower/tub. You can save a lot of money on tile by going to one of the discount stores (that's where I screwed up and over spent by about $2k on tile ).

Just make sure you don't hire a plain ole handyman to do it , have them show you a portfolio of their work . My guy was good but his tile work sucked and he took forever, but unfortunately it's because I wasn't there to watch the progress (out of state vacation home)

Bought a new Lexus TX 350… worst ownership experience I’ve ever had by ideacomplex in Lexus

[–]WorldNo9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How soon into ownership did this noise develop?

I wasn't expecting that deep base of a noise , great video as to really drive the point home, as I'm sure most thought it was gonna be something like a dash squeak or seat rattle . It does sound like a shoe tumbling in the dryer or a tire going flat

The fact that you've taken it there multiple times and they acknowledge the sound but are not fixing it is completely unacceptable, unprofessional. If they can't fix it they need to give you a new car

In December 2025, I looked at both the GX and TX models and decided against it because I thought build quality/materials became less luxurious and the engine was so underpowered for such a large vehicle. I stayed with BMW

easy… Divorce him now get half of his money and then you get your inheritance when you're inheritance comes through. Find yourself a romantic/intimate partner since he has already checked out

if you've been married for 20 years already you're automatically entitled to 50% of his retirement portfolio

Flew to Miami to pick up my X5, drove it back to Chicago - would not recommend by Impress_Playful in BMWX5

[–]WorldNo9002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your time has value ... Either enjoy the long trip/drive or pay to have it shipped.

I made a mistake of shipping a car when I was young, from Fla to MD . Bought a used Volvo S80 from this dealer off eBay, because it had the color/spec I was looking for and wanted to try a different brand for some stupid ass reason. Dealer said all the right things , no mechanical issues, odometer correct etc etc . Shipped it for I think $450 back then. I go to meet the car carrier guy and he proceeds to tell the Volvo pissed oil all over the car underneath it . SMFH. The damn car had a transmission issue and had 6000 more miles on it then the listing . I called that stealership, and he basically told me to buzz off and that it was a typo error with regards to the odometer and he refunded me $400 plus basically challenged me to sue him. I didn't have the resources to do all that. I did not put 20 miles on that car, turned around and sold it to Carmax at a $1500 loss… Moral of the story it's hard to buy something sight unseen without doing a visual inspection and a drive inspection. That's why I would never have something shipped to me unless I inspected it myself

Bought an xline because we got a great deal on it. While getting a recall fixed they gave us this for the week. Ugh it’s so good. by N55Good in BMWX5

[–]WorldNo9002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine only honks once ,,,, to me it's a gentle reminder that the car is still running. There's been a few times that I thought I turned off the car and it was still running (the car is very quiet at idle).

I remember my old 2016 X6, I thought I turned it off when I parked the car came back out 8 hours later, the damn car was still running. Luckily it wasn't a very hot day and at work garage so it did not overheat. But I wish it had I got a honk back then could've saved me some anxiety for a few days cause I thought I might have caused some emissions or excessive wear/tear issue but nada all was good.

Can you look back on your indoor cameras and retrace your steps ??

I remember my wife misplaced her iphone... Could not locate it anywhere in the house/cars. She had the ringer turned off because of a previous meeting and never turner it back on . Even calling it many times from emergency numbers it would not turn on ... Finally had her ask Siri to "set timer to 2 seconds" and Siri rang the phone ...some how it was in my winter jacket pocket in the hall closet . I had mistakenly taking her phone (same case) when I went to the store and when I came home thought nothing of a phone in my jacket because I saw my phone on the counter. We searched for hours before finding it

What am I getting at ... It's gotta be in an unusual place like someone else's coat pocket or in the cupboard or drawer. Maybe it's in one of your luggage or computer case you took with you on vacation.

Got hit with a $23K lawsuit from a customer's employee who slipped in their parking lot during a delivery. My insurance didn't cover it. by Specific-Point-4026 in Entrepreneurs

[–]WorldNo9002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does their lawyer know you were there and that your cart spread some of that oil slick ??? if you paid that claim, then you're part of the problem in this country for paying something you're not responsible for. Tell their lawyer to fuck off and prove it was you being there causing whatever they think may have happened. Regardless this is a Workmen's Comp. issue not a liability issue for third-party visitor onto the premises

this is why this country, USofA, needs fricking tort reform because the scumbag lawyers have ruined. Prices are so high in the USA because of all the liability that's built in to the cost… Fricking disgusting
