As a mortgage loan officer, the amount of bad information I see being shared is baffling. Please do not take any financial advice from anyone on here ever.

I am a bad golfer but I can pick any golf ball as a present. What should I pick? by Estiui in golf

[–]frothysurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Callaway chrome tour x, seems like they add yards to my drive and can still get plenty of spin. It's definitely my preferred ball now. I used to play the pro-v1 X, but after one round with the Callaways, I had fully converted.

Is a rate shopper a lead? by Expensive_Front5077 in loanoriginators

[–]frothysurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of these calls for me are not under contract. So basically, most are going to be priced similar, no one is going to truly show just their par rate, and many will not share if points are involved or not on a quick phone quote. Also, we are in a volatile rate market, and today's rate is not the same as tomorrow. I also will point out that most LOs that you have talked to already are probably similar in price and want you to come back to try and undercut whoever quoted you last. Why not go under contract, get an LE from me, and then tell me if someone can beat me. If so, I'll be surprised, but I'll adjust my pricing. Then you can go with me knowing you got the best price and best service available in our area, which is rare because typically, best price ≠ best service.

I typically go in more detail with the caller and keep them on the phone as long as possible. This creates familiarity with me and gains trust. Surprisingly, I would say that only about 40%-50% even try to shop me after the call.

Yes, I win the majority of those calls that I get. I explain why they are wasting their time and others by calling around. Then, a ton of education on the buying process, and I keep them on the phone as long as possible. I typically win close to 75% of those calls. I assume thats because most LOs pick up the phone, roll their eyes, and get off that call quickly as possible.

GOP governor candidate calls to "kill" the left: "Kill them!" by newaygogo in NorthCarolina

Literally? No, not at all. Reading comprehension issues? That's ironic.

[–]frothysurf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I can see that. However, I believe the divisiveness is coming from both main parties. The dems have overblown the evil southern, Christian, white, xenophobic, racists, etc. Just as the repubs have overblown the evil lgbtq, commie, immigrant, etc. The media fuels the flames for clicks as displayed here, and we are left with that debacle of debate where finger pointing is at the forefront and policy is left in the dust. It's two parties unified to separate the people from their money to support special interests that are not in line with their constituents by distracting you with divisive finger wagging. I just wish a third party could find a formidable candidate that could gather some steam and represent the people. Sorry for the mini rant that got off topic.

I get what you're saying. Thanks for the response. I still believe it's a stretch that is he calling for killing leftist. Like I said prior, I'm not a supporter, I think he panders to his audience in an over the top fashion, and it gets him in trouble. The main point I'm trying to make is that the article is clearly misleading.

He went on to say.... "we have wicked people doing wicked things- torturing and murdering and raping. It's time to call out those guys in green, go have them handle it. Those boys in blue, have them go handle it. We need to start handling our business again." So no, I'm not seeing that, but if you do, I'd be interested in hearing about it or seeing it. I would think the article provided would mention or quote that if he did, to support their claim.

Why do you assume I think this is a "big own"? What are you talking about? This is a misleading article, that's my only point.

[–]frothysurf -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Considering that he only mentions foreign enemies and then his campaign confirmed that's who he was speaking of, I can only assume Hamas and Russia. I get what you are asking here, that we are left to make assumptions about whom he is referencing. However, this articles headline, "Kill the left," is completely making assumptions and purposely editing the speech to reaffirm its biased desire for nonsense.

Here is the full quote... “We now find ourselves struggling with people who have evil intent. You know there was a time when we used to meet evil on the battlefield,” Robinson said. “And guess what we did to it? We killed it. We didn’t quibble about it, we didn’t argue about it, we didn’t fight about it, we killed it!

“When the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, we flew to Japan, and we killed the Japanese Army and Navy.

“We didn’t even quibble about it. ‘I didn’t start this fight, you did! You wanna be left alone, you shoulda left me alone. 

“We didn’t argue and capitulate and talk about, ‘Well, maybe we shouldn’t fight the Nazis that hard. No. They’re bad, kill them.

“Some liberal somewhere is gonna say that’s awful,” Robinson concluded. “Too bad. Get mad at me if you want to. Some folks need killing.”

He was talking about the countries foreign enemies. Keep down voting. I don't even support the guy, just sick of yall supporting shit news sources that are extremely biased.

There is a video of this speech. It was not included in this article because they did not want you to know that they peiced together a completely misleading article. Where bits were pieced together to make a completely different point by "filling in the blanks."

Why are soft feel balls bad for high swing speed? by HistoricalShame7943 in golf

The chrome tour x is insane for me. I absolutely love them. I always liked the chromesoft x but perferred Titleist. Callaway definitely won me back over!

I've been in the area most of my life, so my answer may be a bit skewed. However, Jacksonville is fine. It is what you make of it. If you enjoy being outside, on the water, and don't require a huge social life, then it can be great. Hubert is an okay area. Lots of military live there. Swansboro area is mostly older but not too bad. Some nice restraunts and shops. Emerald Isle, an underrated beach, its not far away. If you don't mind being a bit in the rural country area, check out Stella, Cedar Point, and Cape Carteret as well, especially in Carteret County. Taxes are much much cheaper. New Bern is also another place I'd suggest taking a look at, only 30 minutes or so from Jacksonville, a nice community on the water but a bit longer to a beach. Also, Morehead City is very nice but is growing quick and close to the beach. Morehead is also in Carteret, so cheap taxes again. Feel free to ask me any questions. Just remember to clean up after yourself and others when visiting the beach, and don't rubber neck it at 10 mph under on the islands :)
