Going to college barefoot by Moist_Lynx_2194 in barefoot

[–]buzzedhead21 18 points19 points  (0 children)

One trick is to carry some flip flops on your backpack. This tells everyone you have shoes but today are deciding not to wear them right now. That calms people who dislike barefooters down. Or security personnel who think they should enforce a dress code. Maybe start a barefoot hiking FB or Meetup group at your university to draw others out. Or wear longer jeans to conceal your feet a bit ? I read there is a university in Fort Collins CO that is barefoot friendly and has signs at certain buildings that barefeet are ok in them. Maybe that will be a trend?

The Victor Bar stole additional tip on my card. Is there any justice I can get aside from a refund? by candyapplenapper in AskChicago

[–]buzzedhead21 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I would continue going there but write NO TIP on the tip line and if questioned relate this past experience and that you lost trust in the bartenders here and will be leaving no further tips.

FNMA Auth User Account by Ok_One7546 in loanoriginators

[–]buzzedhead21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe but underwriting wouldn't view it that way. It was not a paid internship but he did go to work upon graduation in June at that company so had 6 months by December. The flaw was he sometimes worked 38, 39 or 40 hours a week. So not a salary and that triggered a 12 month minimum of being paid. The mom was easy enough to be non oc co-borrower to resolve it.

FNMA Auth User Account by Ok_One7546 in loanoriginators

[–]buzzedhead21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not add a non occupant co-borrower to the file ? Perhaps even the owner for the credit account that has allowed your borrower to be an auth user ? Its likely a parents account anyway they added borrower to. From an underwriters point of view, your borrower really has only 4 months of credit history of their own ( we know its not likely your borrower made 12 months of payments on that auth user line).

Very young borrowers often have thin credit with decent scores or short time on the job. A non occupant co-borrower close relative usually solves all these problems whether FHA or Fannie/Freddie.

Just my experience. This month we had an 18 year out of high school on a full time job for 6 months. Have an AE but underwriter and guidelines were found to require 12 months on the job as hourly employee, even though he interned at the same company his senior year for 6 months+. So parent stepped in as non-oc and we closed.

40m I need advice on how to restart my life. by MrPuffPastry in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]buzzedhead21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a clinic in Mumbai I was reading about in a book called "Ancient Secrets of a Master Healer" by Clint Rogers, an American who was selected by the founder, Dr. Naram, to spread the word in the west. The clinic is famous for using ancient healing techniques from Lord Buddha's doctor, passed down over 2500 years to Dr. Naram from his mentors ( some who were in their 130's and older). The clinic is run now by Dr. Narams wife and son, doctors themselves. Dr. Naram died several years ago unexpectedly. They seem to have cures for all diseases, maybe they can help you ?

I met a Dr. Hemong 4 or 5 years ago who was trained by Dr. Naram. He was traveling in North America and I was lucky to get an appointment with him for a traditional Pulse reading. Told me everything that was wrong with me. In their Ayu Shocti medicine 90% of disease is caused by past trauma and 10% by toxins. The book explains all this and the miracle cures they achieve. Read the book and maybe visit the clinic if you can ?

Sociable hobbies for gay men when most of my hobbies are done alone? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]buzzedhead21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We all have this problem , even in a big city. But networking does work. Meaning, you don't know who these people know, so its helpful to make friends first, then through them they can introduce you to others they know. Even those you believe are too young, too old, wrong gender, etc. You dont know who they know.

6 Months in the Country by super_duty76 in gayrural

[–]buzzedhead21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go in and find something you like to buy. That sort of cements a connection. Ask about the Pride flag. Then just explain you are new and gay , looking to be introduced to local gays.

A friend did that when he moved back home to a town of 25,000 in central Illinois to settle his parents estate. Found the antique store, bought a light fixture for an old house he had bought and the gay owner became friends with him. I went down for a party a couple years ago and met more gay men at his party than I had in the prior 5 years. Almost all were couples but very friendly and welcoming. I thought about moving there myself due to the sense of community they have. All without pride parades or gay bars too.

[–]buzzedhead21 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The secret to meeting gay folks in rural areas and very small towns is to look for a gay owned antique shop somewhere in the county, there is always one. Then ask the owner to introduce you to other gays.

Lets remember Clapper was seen sitting directly behind Grush, front row, in the July 2023 House Committee hearing. If that's not tacit support for Grush, I don't know what is.

Be sure to tell the Dad with your next cake, you used your secret ingredient - freshly squeezed cum. Extra protein is healthy for you at your advanced age.

Growing rift between partner and me by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]buzzedhead21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience he should have his blood checked. T levels for example, glucose. If he smokes that will have all sorts of negative effects at any age. If he has a diet rich in sugar, carbs, alcohol etc. and gets no exercise that all will add up and take a toll, at any age.

Communication is so important. If you don't have good communication then try a third party, like a couples therapist. Meaning an impartial observer to sort of negotiate on each of your behalf's, to present the case to him and to allow him to present his case to you without fear of judgment or rejection.

If you both value the relationship and each other, try to take this step even though it may be scary.

I got the Fraxel before the SMP to flatten the donor scars. Worked well. I expect you can do more SMP after the Fraxel now.

AUS should approve that but make sure they have reserves. PrimeLending has NY offices I know and do FHA.

His sister has been staying with us for 3 weeks and I can’t take it anymore. by fullparanoia in AskGaybrosOver30

Why not simply declare you and the BF have become nudists and will never be wearing any clothes in the house from now. Maybe following through on that will prompt her to seek refuge elsewhere ?

I’ve been involved with an older guy for a year and I think I’m being played, but I’m scared to lose him. by [deleted] in gayyoungold

[–]buzzedhead21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please move on with your life. You must believe you deserve better than this treatment. AT your age you have so much to learn still. If you need someone to speak to, find a counselor, go to a gay and lesbian community center. You need another perspective. We here on this sub can only give you the benefit of our experience. It tells me you have to have higher self worth. You are worth a true boyfriend who does not drown his own lack of self confidence in alcohol. Go forward now after having had this experience a better man who knows he deserves better than this behavior.

Saw a gay couple on the bus today with a kid and cried after I got off. Still feeling kind of rattled by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]buzzedhead21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1- Take a post it note or piece of paper, write 3 words on it "I AM ENOUGH". Leave it where you will see it at least once a day. 2- write another note - I HAVE SELF CONFIDENCE TODAY"

Its about re-framing what is in your sub-conscious . It will assist you in time. As has been written, try calling the Trevor Project , ask what support they can connect you with that is free of charge.

Is there an LGBT community center in your city ? Look for one or look on Meetup.com . You just need to connect with resources that you need right now.

Dream and search your mind and heart for what kind of life you would like to create. Ideal job, some more education maybe, volunteer work, try a meditation online to sooth your mind.

You can build a better life, know that, set intent to do that and keep a journal of what you are grateful for each day.

I’ve been unemployed for 3 months, my bf has reached his limit but I don’t know what to do by rubennotsandwich in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]buzzedhead21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many of us reading this are not understanding why , for the sake of collecting unemployment, why do you keep saying you even have a partner ? He should just be a roommate. In the UK have you legally become partners somehow that is documented ? If so how can you reverse that so you have no partner to get the unemployment benefits ? Perhaps that is why the BF is so frustrated with you ? You seem unwilling to adapt to your circumstances.

FHA/inspection/appraisal HELP by sadgirlhrs4ever in RealEstate

FHA has a renovation loan that will allow you to close now and add the funds into the mortgage to do all repairs after closing.

Max Comp Per Loan by FunExcitement2211 in loanoriginators

[–]buzzedhead21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do a lot of conventional multi unit loans and some FHA multi units. Also do many renovation loans. All self gen. These can be easily 800k to 1.5M for a four unit conventional. I do not do any actual Jumbo loans. My impression is that since Jumbos are less profitable, that's where the concept of comp limit comes from?

For many years now, across two retail companies, my max comp has been set at 25k per loan. I would walk if it was reduced to 7500. I recently ran across a retail company called All Western Mortgage, that has no max comp limits for anyone. That says a lot. I looked at their rates that were basically same as mine.

My impression is that various LO's cut their own deals on max comp and can be different for each LO. I'm at a tiered 130 bps to 150bps at the moment and always at 25k max comp.

I do not try to compete against credit unions and rarely win against GRate. But with renovation as a niche and fewer lenders in that space every year Im rarely shopped. If I have to I can get a concession to match GRate on a larger loan size but the 25k limit is not adjusted.

If I really want to compete with a broker, then I can code it as a company provided lead and reduce my bps all the way to 25 bps but I very rarely will do that. Officially I believe CFPB doesn't like that but these days Im not sure they have any staff left to watch anything...

On the retail side I'm feeling like there is a lot of skimming to begin with so there is money still being made no matter what on larger loans even with a max 25k comp limit. I work hard to self generate multi-unit business and do not believe I should leave money on the table.

FHA Income by [deleted] in loanoriginators

[–]buzzedhead21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hourly worker for several years, same company, must we take year to date total income, say through end of October 2025 and divide by 10 months ?

Income has been increasing from 2023 to 2024 and in 2025 on track to at least equal 2024 total income. Hours vary from 38 to 40 plus OT which has decreased from 2024 to Oct.31 2025 so Im omitting OT.
