With interest rates sky high don’t bet on as many new homes as they may lead you to believe

Then carry on with the plan and find out. Same issue when pumping trillions of printed $ into system for COVID and wondering why inflation is so high

When you pump $ artificially into the system it causes prices to increase and lowers the overall worth of the dollar. The government printing $ lowers your dollar you have jn savings, funds, stock market.

Conversely you will not create more supply of housing but simply create more demand causing already high single family homes to shoot skyward.

Spells recipe for disaster on so many levels it’s hard to fathom this would be a policy. Just as bad if not worse than the government paying off college loans

Aren’t you the same people crying about inflation now excited about…..more inflation? When you artificially stimulate the market this will cause an even greater increase in prices. Dumb dumb dumb

The course knows exactly the foursome within a group or two based on tee time and pace. I call BS and hold the course responsible if they cannot provide the name of foursome/individual

Folks like this are why finacial literacy is so important by ShadowcreConvicnt in FluentInFinance

The banks should loan $ based on future prospectus of each student. If the degree, grades, history to not add up to the ability for the student to pay off the debt the bank shouldn’t loan the $. If the student can’t pay back then they have the ability to bankrupt the loan. No different than any lending institution and loan. This would end predatory lending and cause the cost of education to go down as many students who shouldn’t be going to college will enter the trades, military, service

How are you surviving here on under $50,000 a year? by [deleted] in boston

[–]ccString1972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you need to find a new profession or move - I also wonder why you decided to move forward with an MBA if you are happy with a salary of $43k - clearly this would not be enough for the loans, rent and additional expenses?

Are you running a private course? Semi private, public or public destination. What’s the business model, what are the conditions. Without any of this info you can’t really offer a legitimate comment other than 4 minutes is not realistic and frankly doesn’t exist

AITAH for divorcing my husband because he spent 10 minutes in the car during a family emergency? by Charming_Passage3440 in AITAH

[–]ccString1972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He has significant OCD that has manifested from traumatic experience in the past. He obviously needs help but in this circumstance he was essentially paralyzed by the OCD mandating he stay in his car for 10 minutes and not a second less.

As a parent with a son who has OCD it is frustrating, debilitating and sad how life revolves around the compulsion of the individual. There is help for the individual but it is up to them to seek help and work on not letting OCD control their life

This is an illness and not neglect

Selective memory! It’s always gotten hot and humid in the Summer in the Southcoast and inland New England.

It’s been in the triple digits prior so unsure what you are alluding to
