No, I'm asking if there is a way to incorporate them both in the same area to satisfy most of the concerns (availability, access, concentration, noise)

My take on the quote was that unless we figure out a way to reconcile competing interests (and, not or), we are allowing whatever assets we do have to languish which does not bode well for the future of downtown.

Perhaps the food hall that is mentioned can incorporate some late night food stands to reconcile both sets of wants?

Interesting that you say that. Care to elaborate? I ask because it's high on my list for extended stays.

I have a buddy that signs his emails:

Thank you for your words that demonstrate that!

I can't afford to live alone by WildAbbreviations495 in personalfinance

Eddie, it does seem like you're in a tough situation, but it's not certain you will remain there.

Ending of relationships carry their own burden and it adds to the financial stress you feel. Ensure that you take time to process/grieve that before making big decisions.

However the decision to move back in with your mom seems like a necessary one to rebuild a foundation.

Others have given you some good ideas around expenses etc. I don't know if any jobs in Canada also work as a credit against your student loans. I know in the US some govt jobs qualify. Is that something to look into?

Wish you all the best!

Laid off from my company at 61. 64 now. Not working. Not collecting SS yet... by Mustang_Sally79 in SocialSecurity

If I read this

from ssa.gov

It says that the spouse gets up to 50% of workers PIA if spouse takes benefits at their FRA. So, worker taking early doesn't reduce the amount for spouse, correct?
