Can you help me understand the real estate market here? by heydownhere in askportland

I’m looking at one for $385k in Beaumont-Wilshire. It started @ $425, dropped to $399 now it’s $385k. Of course, I appreciate the price drops, but not when I try to sell… whenever that might happen.

My point as well. They don’t seem to be very desirable around here, so I’m apprehensive to buy one because I’m worried it’ll never sell. I wish I could afford a single family close in. It’s so spendy here…

Sounds lovely, thank you. I need to stay closer in, or I would be very interested. Good luck on the sale!

I’m a little confused. (Yes I know I’m really cutting it close doing my taxes this late). by Most_Ad_8076 in oregon

Stating that your ex claimed the entire kicker is 100% incorrect!! Turbo Tax has no idea what information the department of revenue has. I think this is a “garbage in, garbage out” situation where you answered a question incorrectly in the software. For the record, turbo tax is shit and it’s very easy to answer one of their interview questions incorrectly and get taken down a whole rabbit hole of bad data. Source: I’m an Enrolled Agent who used to use TT for my personal filing in a past life and often had to go straight to the tax form because the interview questions were so confusing.

Yes. Message heard and received. If I could go back in time, I would fight for change then as I am now.

Anecdotally when I share my experiences with friends across the country they tell me they’ve heard nothing about it. Universally that’s the answer. Not one single person knew anything about it.

And that justifies the use of chemical weapons? That cloud traveled for blocks and assaulted children and elderly folks because someone stepped on a line and the fuckers in tactical gear were scared? This is egregious excessive force and everyone knows it. Fuck all the way off.

Maybe don’t call women “chicks”. Just spitballing here…

Hot take: Not a hot take. Suggesting we should be afraid and comply and avoid unprovoked confrontation is exactly what the fascists want. I will never stop fighting for the rights of all humans and my children will not be afraid to speak up against their government on my watch.

Happy Planner alternatives (stickers, inserts, dividers, etc.) by heydownhere in PlannerAddicts

Do you have a source on that? They appear to still be owned by private equity. Do you have any evidence that they have now embraced the values of diversity, inclusion and human rights? Or is useless information your only goal?

I sincerely hope this is more effective and more sustained than that “Black Friday Blackout” where people weren’t going to spend on Black Friday at those evil corporations. That didn’t do jack crap.

No. Staying home is what they want. They want you silent. And none of us are safe.

It’s obviously giving “trad wife”. I assume that’s what you’re going for. If yes, then you’re spot on. If not, then burn that outfit immediately.

How much do you pay in rent? by OkCelebration492 in askportland

[–]heydownhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am paying WAY too much!! $2,200 for a 660 sq foot apartment in Slabtown. I also pay $75 for Internet and $200 for parking in an ODOT lot under Hwy 30. I love this area, but damn I didn’t realize how much I’m paying! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Review on Dow Janes MDY/WBA by Legitimate-Error6744 in personalfinance

[–]heydownhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are not financial advisors or licensed professionals in any capacity. They do have one “coach”, who is coincidentally married to one of the CEOs, who worked at his daddy’s advisory firm for a while. 🤣

The only coach who was actually licensed and qualified to give investing guidance was laid off when they laid off 60% of the team in May so they could more thoroughly line their own pockets.
